Brendan Farmer is the co-founder of Polygon, which is a project that is focused on scaling Ethereum. Brendan’s contributions have been instrumental in the research and development of key scaling technologies within Polygon’s framework, including Polygon PoS, Polygon zkEVM, and Polygon Miden. Our conversation begins with an exploration of the foundational elements that constitute the Polygon ecosystem. We then delve into the realm of ZK technology, discussing its advantages as a preferred scaling solution, its comparison with optimistic rollups, and the intricacies of Polygon’s Aggregation Layer and CDK. We also discuss how the future of blockchain activity can be made more efficient and optimized with Aggregation Layer.<\/p>\n
