HOW IS LINEA DIFFERENT TO OTHER LAYER 2 NETWORKS?

Updated 8 months ago

Linea is one of several zero knowledge (zk) rollups available — using zero
knowledge proofs isn't a unique approach.

The main thing that makes Linea special is that it is a fully EVM-equivalent
zero knowledge layer 2 network. 

Why is this a good thing? Well, in addition to the benefits that most layer 2
networks offer — lower gas fees, high capacity, and scalability — our full EVM
equivalence means developers can use the same tools and infrastructure as they
would on Ethereum, making it easier to work with Linea in general. This has
practical benefits, like making it more straightforward to port dapps from one
chain to another. 

Linea also has native integrations with other commonly used tools, accelerating
how quickly developers can share dapps with users. MetaMask streamlines user
onboarding; Infura's infrastructure provides stability and scalability; and
popular tools like Truffle are already usable with the network.
