How to do your Polygon zkEVM taxes with Koinly
Polygon's zkEVM is a scaling solution designed to make Ethereum transactions faster, more secure, and cost-effective. It's the first zero-knowledge scaling solution for Ethereum that supports smart contracts and developer tools. Whatever your investments, Koinly can help with your Polygon zkEVM taxes.
Follow these steps to download your Polygon zkEVM data:
- For blockchains, it is usually best to sync your data through the auto-sync integration. If this is not an option for you, you can also import a CSV file.
- Open up your favorite block explorer for Polygon zkEVM
- Search for your public address
- Find an export button (usually at the top or bottom of your transaction history)
- Download a CSV file with your transaction history. You may need to download multiple files if the explorer does not include all transaction types in a single file
- Koinly supports the CSV formats from a lot of different explorers but some formats are not supported. If your file does not import directly into Koinly, you will need to change the headers of the file to match one of our custom formats

It is the first zero-knowledge scaling solution compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine, offering seamless integration of smart contracts and developer tools, making Ethereum transactions more efficient and cost-effective.
What is the difference between Polygon PoS and zkEVM?
Polygon PoS (Proof of Stake) is a layer-2 scaling solution for Ethereum, while zkEVM (Zero-Knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine) uses zero-knowledge proofs to enhance scalability. PoS relies on staking, zkEVM employs cryptographic techniques.
What does zkEVM stand for?
zkEVM stands for Zero-Knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine.
What are the benefits of zkEVM?
zkEVM (Zero-Knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine) offers faster, more secure, and cost-effective Ethereum transactions. It leverages zero-knowledge proofs for enhanced privacy and efficiency.
