Recent Important News about ZK (ZKsync):
1️⃣ ZK-EVM achieves production-level performance, becoming a core solution for Ethereum scalability
ZK-EVM has entered the alpha stage with production-level performance, with remaining work focused on security optimization. As the core technological foundation of ZKsync, the maturity of ZK-EVM directly enhances the platform’s position within the Ethereum ecosystem. This progress validates the feasibility of zero-knowledge proofs for large-scale applications and provides solid technical support for ZKsync’s main product, ZK Stack.
2️⃣ PeerDAS mainnet launch opens space for Ethereum-ZK ecosystem collaboration
PeerDAS has officially launched on the Ethereum mainnet. Its integration with ZK-EVM will simultaneously break through the trilemma of decentralization, consensus mechanism, and high throughput. This technological combination is transforming Ethereum into a high-bandwidth peer-to-peer network, creating more favorable infrastructure conditions for ZKsync as an Ethereum layer-two solution.
3️⃣ Future Gas scalability route creates clear expectations for ZK-EVM’s large-scale application
Starting from 2026, with mechanisms like BAL and ePBS, Ethereum’s Gas limit is expected to gradually increase; between 2026-2028, Gas re-pricing and state structure adjustments will occur; from 2027-2030, ZK-EVM is expected to become the main method for network block validation. This clear technological evolution path provides long-term demand certainty for ZKsync’s zero-knowledge proof-based scalability solutions and clarifies its core role within the Ethereum ecosystem.
