Blockchain developers wanting a Layer 2 solution for their secure, low-cost and usable token transfers
About Hermez
Hermez is an open-source ZK-Rollup optimized for secure, low-cost and usable token transfers on the wings of Ethereum. Hermez seamlessly integrates into the fabric of the Ethereum ecosystem and enables low-cost token transfers for an inclusive economy. Cost-efficient token transfers and swaps with high throughput. Decentralized and open-source architecture. Computational integrity for secure transactions. By using zero-knowledge technology, transfer costs are significantly reduced, allowing more accessible financial services for mainstream adoption. Computational integrity and on-chain data availability are guaranteed by zero-knowledge-proof technology while preserving the public blockchain properties of Ethereum. Hermez's mission is to create an inclusive, resilient and highly efficient payment network for the next generation of digital currencies to ensure everyone has the freedom to transact.

Celer Network
Celer Network is a layer-2 scaling platform that brings fast, secure and low-cost blockchain applications on Ethereum, Polkadot and other blockchains to mass adoption. Celer launched the world’s first Generalized State Channel Network and continues to push the frontier of layer2 scaling with advanced Rollup technology. Core applications and middlewares like cBridge, Layer2.Finance and more ecosystem applications built on Celer have attracted more large audiences in DeFi, blockchain interoperability and gaming space. Layer2.Finance tackles the two largest challenges preventing DeFi from reaching mass adoption, the extraordinarily high transaction fees and being very difficult to navigate and use. cBridge is a multi-chain network that enables instant, low-cost and ANY-to-ANY value transfers within and across Ethereum’s layer-2 chains, Ethereum main chain and in the future, other layer-1s, and layer-2 on top of those other layer-1 chains.

Starknet
Starknet is a permissionless decentralized ZK-Rollup operating as an L2 network over Ethereum, where any dApp can achieve unlimited scale for its computation, without compromising Ethereum's composability and security. Starknet achieves scale, while preserving the security of L1 Ethereum by producing STARK proofs off-chain, and verifying those proofs on-chain. On Starknet, developers can easily deploy any business logic using Starknet Contracts. Starknet will provide Ethereum-level composability, facilitating easy development and compounding innovation. The STARK Prover powers the StarkEx scalability engine, and has already demonstrated the ability to process 600K transactions in a single proof on Mainnet.

zkLend
zkLend is an L2 money-market protocol built on StarkNet, combining zk-rollup scalability, superior transaction speed, and cost savings with Ethereum's security. The protocol offers a dual solution, a permissioned and compliance-focused solution for institutional clients, and a permissionless service for DeFi users, all without sacrificing decentralization. zkLend believes that truly decentralized finance must be built on chains that are not only cheap, fast, and scalable but also secure and decentralized. zkLend is built with the conviction that Ethereum is the only decentralized solution and zk is the only technology that can scale without compromising on the properties that make Ethereum so unique. zkLend is an L2 money-market protocol built on StarkNet, combining zk-rollup scalability, superior transaction speed, and cost savings with Ethereum’s security. Users will be able to deposit their assets into a reserve pool, thereby providing liquidity to each money market.

Loopring
Loopring is an open protocol for building scalable non-custodial exchanges on Ethereum. Leveraging zero-knowledge proofs (zkRollup), it allows for high performance trading (high throughput, low settlement cost), without sacrificing Ethereum-level security guarantees. Users always maintain 100% control of their assets throughout the trade lifecycle. You can trade on Loopring to test it out. Loopring is an open-sourced, audited, and non-custodial exchange protocol, which means nobody in the Loopring ecosystem needs to trust others. Cryptoassets are always under users' own control, with 100% Ethereum-level security guarantees. Loopring powers highly scalable decentralized exchanges by batch-processing thousands of requests off-chain, with verifiably correct execution via ZKPs. The performance of underlying blockchains is no longer the bottleneck. Loopring performs most operations, including order-matching and trade settlement, off the Ethereum blockchain.
