EY Upgrades Nightfall Blockchain with ZK-Rollup for Faster & Cheaper Transactions
EY has upgraded Nightfall, its enterprise-focused Ethereum Layer-2 solution, by switching from Optimistic Rollups to Zero-Knowledge (ZK) Rollups. This major shift removes the challenge period, allowing near-instant finality, improved scalability, and lower fees.
Why This Matters:
✅ Faster Transactions – No more waiting for challenge periods like in Optimistic Rollups.
✅ Better Privacy – Private token transfers with enhanced security.
✅ Enterprise Adoption – EY is making Ethereum more business-friendly.
Nightfall helps businesses conduct private token transfers on Ethereum while reducing costs. With ZK-rollups dominating the scaling space, could this push more enterprises to build on Ethereum?
