Let's get technical about Levitation Protocol!
The Levitation Protocol is a ZK scaling solution that layers the power of SKALE’s App-chains on top of Ethereum.
Let's dive into the proposed Levitation Protocol architecture and learn how it works.
The Levitation ZK Wrapper is essentially a set of smart contracts that can be run either on an existing App-chain style SKALE Chain, or on SKALE G, the upcoming, L1 Megachain that was announced alongside Levitation.
Levitation's decentralized sequencer protocol has a pluggable, modular architecture which enables existing, 3rd party ZK Rollups to run seamlessly on Levitation enabled SKALE Chains.
Once a user submits a transaction, the transaction is ordered and verified by the smart contract. The ZK processors then "rollup" execute and prove the transaction, whereupon it is verified and stored in ZK Block Storage on Levitation before being pushed to ETH Mainnet.
