Event description
- Scroll's upgrade to a Stage 1 zkRollup and Type 1 zkEVM, as announced, aligns with Ethereum's scaling efforts, building on Vitalik Buterin's classification of zkEVM types that balance zero-knowledge proof efficiency and Ethereum Virtual Machine compatibility.
- The inclusion of EIP-7702 and RIP-7212 in Scroll’s update enhances user experience by introducing wallet abstraction and secp256r1 curve support, respectively, part of broader Ethereum and rollup improvement proposals gaining traction in 2025.
- The switch to a Reth-based sequencer reflects a trend among layer-2 solutions to improve performance, as seen in Base’s adoption of Reth for scaling, aiming to lower costs and boost transaction speeds on Scroll’s network.
