Linea vs Plasma

Linea is Consensys’ zkEVM rollup offering bytecode‑level equivalence with Ethereum and zero‑knowledge proofs generated by the Scroll‑inspired ‘Plonky3’ prover. The network is integrated directly into MetaMask, and sequencer fees can be paid in any ERC‑20 via a paymaster contract. Linea has secured over 200 million TVL and finalises proofs on mainnet every 10 minutes.
