what's linea?

Linea is a zero-knowledge Ethereum Layer-2 scaling network developed by ConsenSys, designed to enhance Ethereum's scalability, security, and decentralization without compromising its core principles. It utilizes zk-rollup technology to enable fast, low-cost transactions while maintaining full EVM equivalence, allowing seamless deployment of Ethereum-compatible dApps, smart contracts, and tools. The network supports native ETH yield mechanisms, protocol-level ETH burns, and focuses on ecosystem growth through incentives for users, builders, and public goods. The LINEA token serves as the governance and coordination tool, with 85% of its supply allocated to the ecosystem for development, early users, and Ethereum R&D initiatives. Linea emphasizes alignment with Ethereum's values, featuring no new gas token and open-source zkEVM technology to foster a thriving DeFi, NFT, and broader Web3 ecosystem.
