Abou Kakarot

Kakarot is an EVM-compatible ZK-Rollup that leverages Cairo to spearhead innovations on Ethereum. This offers a strong edge to core ZK infrastructure builders: separating cryptography and engineering. Because of its architecture, Kakarot is the only zkEVM rollup that'll be able to follow and even front-run upgrades to the Ethereum protocol. Under the hood, Kakarot zkEVM relies on the Starknet stack (CairoVM + StarknetOS runtime).
