Ethereum is making a significant shift towards Zero-Knowledge (ZK) technology across its infrastructure.​ This move validates zkSync's architecture and positions ZK-first Layer 2 solutions as previews of Ethereum's future.​

Key implications:

• Standardization of realtime proving benefits the entire ZK developer ecosystem
• Client-side proving and private execution support institutional adoption
• Airbender, Prividium, and Elastic Network gain strategic importance

The transition aligns with recent developments in CLOB-specific L2s, featuring:

• Sub-100ms block times
• Verifiable execution
• Privacy by default

Technical developments are backed by zkSync's stack:

• Airbender: Sub-second proofs
• Prividium: Private matching
• Elastic Network: Custom chains with shared liquidity
