Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

And in the meantime, we are scaling on the more traditional front as well.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

I want to

Bankless

into the the qualitative nature of the scale of the zk evm so with block times and block sizes those are the two ways that you have throughput you have how big is your block and how frequently do those come you know you know height times height times length so can we talk about what that the nature of scaling with a zk evm does does it help lower block times does it just increase block size or

Bankless

I want Onsgar both fast and big blocks.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

I like my blocks big and fast.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

It would be great if we could increase the size of blocks, but there is also a very important element of just like block times is critically important for trading and finance.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

Yeah.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

So how does the ZK EVM impact both of these variables?

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

Right.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

Okay, understood, understood.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

So the ZK EVM massively increases block sizes.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

I don't know if you can put numbers around that.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

And then as a marginal increase in block times, can that block speed come down in the future?

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

Or what does it take for block times to get faster?

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

And is that something that we are aspiring to in the roadmap?

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

Maybe the part that I wasn't sure of is like maybe the block speeds don't necessarily come down, but transaction assurances come down very, very fast.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

And you're kind of saying, well, that's what people want anyways.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

Is that correct?

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

Right.

Bankless
Ethereum's Last Big Upgrade: The zkEVM | Ansgar Dietrichs

OK, understood.
