## Products

- [Scroll Chain](https://thegrid.id/profiles/scroll): Scroll Chain provides bytecode-level Ethereum compatibility through zero-knowledge rollup technology, enabling developers to deploy existing smart contracts without modifications while offering faster transaction processing and reduced costs. The platform includes community rewards through the Sessions program and comprehensive developer support via the Scroll Open builder program. (L2, Live, Main Product)
- [Scroll Bridge](https://thegrid.id/profiles/scroll): Scroll Bridge enables secure asset transfers between Ethereum mainnet and the Scroll Layer 2 network through cryptographic proofs and rollup architecture, facilitating deposits and withdrawals while maintaining the security guarantees of the underlying blockchain. (Bridge, Live)

## Assets

- [Scroll (SCR)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/scroll): SCR is the governance token of Scroll, a zkEVM Layer 2 network on Ethereum. It is used to vote on protocol decisions through the Scroll DAO and to participate in the decentralization of network infrastructure. Holders can delegate their voting power to community members, enabling broader participation in decisions that shape the protocol's development and the operation of its prover network. (Native)
