Taiko is the Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution that is built on Ethereum. Compared to other rollups, in Taiko, the sequencing is done by Ethereum L1 validators, meaning that there is no central authority for sequencing. This Ethereum-equivalent design means that developers can continue to leverage familiar tools and additionally, any contract that runs on Ethereum will run on Taiko.
Alchemy Pay’s On-Ramp is compatible with various cryptocurrencies while allowing fiat-based purchases. Alchemy Pay is present in 173 countries across the globe. It also boasts an extensive payment network. It makes it easy for users to acquire cryptocurrencies using both credit cards, mobile wallets, and bank transfers.
Alchemy Pay Strengthens Global Credibility with New Licenses
With Alchemy Pay as a payment gateway solution, the company has secured several compliance licenses in the US, Canada, Indonesia, and Lithuania. Newly obtained Money Transmitter License in New Hampshire and Authorized Payment Institution License in the UK make Alchemy Pay a more credible one in the international market. Approved by Visa and Mastercard, Alchemy Pay officially receives the status of a payment service provider.
Taiko is building the first Type 1 ZK-rollup for Ethereum to scale without trade-offs. Taiko results in a better developer experience without adding new trust assumptions to the system. Such Ethereum-equivalent guarantees that all existing Ethereum tooling is seamlessly compatible, and no additional audits or code changes are required.
Ultimately, Taiko is the only rollup that launches the mainnet with a fully decentralized proposer from Day 1 without compromising the Ethereum Foundation’s vision of scaling the ecosystem without fragmentation.
