The Ethereum Foundation is preparing to bring zero-knowledge technology to Ethereum, with plans to launch a zkEVM on the layer-1 network within a year.
Ethereum is preparing for a significant architectural upgrade that could see a zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine (zkEVM) integrated directly into its layer-1 blockchain within a year.
In a post by Sophia Gold, a developer in the Ethereum Foundation’s (EF) protocol support team, the EF outlined a path toward replacing traditional block execution with zero-knowledge proofs (ZK-proofs).
Instead of requiring every validator to re-run transaction blocks to verify them, the system will switch to validators only checking ZK-proofs, which are tiny cryptographic receipts that confirm everything was done correctly.
