Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum’s co-founder, has proposed a new concept: the “enshrined Zero-Knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine (zkEVM).”
This initiative aims to enhance the efficiency and security of Ethereum’s Layer-2 protocols, particularly optimistic and ZK rollups, which are crucial for the network’s scalability.
Vitalik Buterin’s zkEVM Layer-2 Solution
In a recent blog post, Vitalik Buterin highlighted the evolving strength of Ethereum’s “light clients.” They are set to improve, soon being able to use zero-knowledge cryptography for verifying transactions on the primary chain.
This development, Buterin notes, will effectively integrate a zkEVM into Ethereum, leading him to propose its potential use for rollup protocols as well.
Ethereum’s Layer-2 protocols are crucial for the blockchain’s scalability but rely heavily on EVM verification. The current method has a large and potentially vulnerable codebase, which creates several challenges.
