What is Kakarot zkEVM

Kakarot is a Cairo-based zkEVM focused on software engineering principles for Starkware's platform, enabling EVM deployment on Starknet and providing a provable execution engine for Ethereum's zk upgrades.

Kakarot is a zkEVM written in Cairo.

Cairo is a high-level general purpose provable programming language developed by Starkware.

Unlike other zkEVM (Scroll, Polygon, zkSync, Linea), Kakarot is an EVM built from a pure software engineering perspective, delegating to Cairo (and the hundreds of Starkware's cryptographers) the responsibility of the "zk", thanks to the unique usage of Cairo.

As another (opensource) EVM in the ecosystem, Kakarot enables more decentralization and aligns with the multi-client philosophy of Ethereum.
