About Kroma

Kroma is a dynamic blockchain network that enhances scalability and reduces transaction costs using Layer 2 solutions. Built on the Optimism Bedrock architecture, Kroma currently functions as an Optimistic Rollup integrated with ZK fault proofs, and it is transitioning toward becoming a full ZK Rollup, leveraging zkEVM based on Scroll technology. This advancement aims at a future where generating ZK proofs is quicker and more cost-effective. 

Kroma's network allows for substantially lower transaction fees, up to ten times cheaper than Ethereum's. This makes it a favorable environment for developers and users seeking efficient and economical interactions. In addition to its cost benefits, Kroma promises rapid transaction finality, evolving from a current delay of over seven days to under an hour, fostering a smoother transition from Optimistic to ZK Rollups without complications.
