Taiko (TAIKO) is a fully open-source, permissionless, Ethereum-equivalent ZK-Rollup designed to scale Ethereum natively. Using Taiko feels the same as using Ethereum, as there are no centralized actors that operate the network; all operations, including running a Taiko node, proposer, and prover, are permissionlessly run by the community.
Additionally, Taiko is a “based” rollup, meaning Taiko blocks and transactions are sequenced by Ethereum block builders. Based rollups rely on Ethereum block builders to sequence their transactions, which decentralizes the sequencer set, allowing the network to inherit liveness and security guarantees from the base layer.
In May 2024, Taiko conducted a highly-anticipated TAIKO token airdrop to more than 300,000 community members. The Taiko network is now home to over 100 different DeFi, gaming, social, infrastructure, tooling, and other protocols.
