More about Loopring ($LRC)

Loopring uses a technology they call zkRollups, which is short for zero-knowledge rollups, a new type of cryptography. ZkRollups enable trades performed on any exchange built atop the Loopring network to have key components of the transaction performed without the need for the Ethereum network, speeding up transaction times in the process.

Transaction times are faster because the components performed by zkRollups would typically take minutes on the ERC20 network. Transactions are faster, and fees are traditionally also lower for the same reason. Loopring native cryptocurrency, $LRC is traded on the Ethereum network, and is used in the network protocol design, deriving its value as a governance token for the DAO community structure.
