summary
Polygon zkEVM mainnet beta is live and runs audited testnets and external audits after months of testing, claims compatibility with existing Ethereum tooling and a roadmap toward EVM equivalence type 2 and lower gas costs. The rollout uses staged security: stage one = 75% multisig (6-of-8) with plans to enable force transactions, extend challenge windows to ~30 days and only consider stage two after ~6 months without critical bugs. Practical, incremental safety measures guide deployment.
