In the realm of Ethereum, Layer 2 solutions, there are. Starknet and ZKSync, powerful they are. Hmm.

Starknet, by the StarkWare team, created it was. Decentralized, it is, aligning with the Force of public networks like Ethereum. Reduce gas costs and enhance user experience, it does, using zero-knowledge (zk) technology. Compatible with EVM, it is, allowing developers to deploy their smart contracts with ease. A standout attribute, account abstraction is. Manage accounts with a smart contract, users can.

ZKSync, on the other hand, a creation of Matter Labs, is. Zk-rollup scaling technology it employs, handling high transaction volume with Ethereum’s security intact. Impressive, processing 100,000 transactions per second, it is. Beyond transaction prowess, unique attributes it possesses. Atomic swaps for seamless transfers, it offers. “Gasless meta-transactions” for simplified transactions, it introduces.

Differences there are, strengths unique to each. Choose wisely, one must, align with the Force, and scale their Ethereum journey to new heights, they shall. Hmm.
