Gnosis vs Ink

Gnosis Chain is an Ethereum sidechain prioritizing low fees, decentralization, and community governance. It runs with $0.0001 per 100k gas costs, 5-second block times, and a globally distributed validator set exceeding 350k nodes. Through GnosisDAO, stakers use the GNO token to secure the network and vote on on-chain proposals shaping the chain’s future.

Ink is Kraken's Ethereum OP Stack Layer-2 built as a DeFi-focused member of the Optimism Superchain. It offers EVM compatibility, low fees and one-second blocks from launch, with sub-second blocks planned, so builders can deploy lending, DEX and yield applications close to Kraken's user base. No dedicated Ink token is mapped yet, so the blockchain is imported without an associated token.
