How to Interact on Taiko via FoxWallet

Taiko is a Type 1 (Ethereum-equivalent) ZK-EVM aims for maximum compatibility. Taiko has fully decentralized and permissionless nodes, proposers, and provers.

Taiko is a decentralized, Ethereum-compatible ZK-EVM and general-purpose ZK-Rollup. Its purpose is to allow developers and users of DApps developed for Ethereum L1 to seamlessly utilize Taiko without any modifications. As a result, DApps can be easily deployed to L2, inheriting Ethereum's security while generating lower transaction fees compared to L1.

According to the latest reports, Taiko raised a total of $22 million in its seed round, led by HongShan on September 1,and on June 8th, it received a $12 million investment led by Generative Ventures.

On June 7th, Taiko launched the Alpha-3 incentivized testnet, which focuses on the decentralized and Ethereum-compatible ZK-EVM component. However, it's important to note that this incentivized testnet is specifically for Proposers and Provers (the first and second batches of early contributors).
