Polygon: Optimizations to Polygon zkEVM Expected to Reduce Fees by Approximately 20% in Coming Weeks
On May 23rd, Polygon announced that optimizations to Polygon zkEVM in the coming weeks are expected to reduce fees by approximately 20%, without involving any compression. Transaction fees on Polygon zkEVM include data availability costs and the cost of publishing proofs to Ethereum. Polygon zkEVM publishes state data for each processed transaction, and fees also include the cost of running servers that generate proofs. Data availability accounts for approximately 80% of transaction fees on the network.
