Differences from Ethereum

Understand key technical distinctions between Lens Chain and the Ethereum mainnet.

Lens Chain is a Layer 2 blockchain network built on ZKsync technology. As a result, Lens Chain is EVM-compatible, meaning it shares ZKsync's differences from Ethereum and other EVM-equivalent blockchains.

The primary differences are outlined below:

  • EVM Instructions

  • Nonces Management

  • Libraries Linking

  • Precompiles

  • Account Abstraction

  • Contract Deployment
