According to BlockBeats, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin announced on social media on September 12 that he plans to focus on discussing only Layer 2 (L2) projects that have reached Stage 1 or higher in public forums such as blogs and speeches starting next year. He mentioned that he might give a brief grace period to genuinely interesting new projects.
Buterin emphasized that regardless of his investment in a project or personal connections, projects must reach Stage 1 to be considered. He noted that several ZK-rollup teams have informed him of their expectations to reach Stage 1 by the end of the year, which he finds very exciting.
He also stressed the importance of ensuring the security of proof systems before abandoning auxiliary measures, stating that it would be irresponsible to do otherwise. Stage 1, where 75% of committee members have the authority to overturn the proof system, with at least 26% coming from outside the rollup team, is seen as a reasonable intermediate milestone. Buterin highlighted that in the multi-signature agreements he has participated in over the years, there have been no activity issues, let alone problems with the 26% threshold.
Buterin concluded by stating that the era of rollups as an upgraded version of multi-signature agreements is coming to an end, and the era of cryptographic trust is approaching.#VitalikButerin #Ethereum #Layer2 #L2Projects #ZKrollups #ProofSystems #CryptographicTrust #MultiSignatureAgreements #ETH
🚀 Ethereum L2 Project Linea Adopts RISC-V Architecture

Ethereum Layer 2 project Linea has announced a shift to the RISC-V architecture, according to Foresight News. Alexandre Belling, a cryptography researcher at Linea, revealed the decision at Ethproofs, citing the need to rewrite constraint modules with each Ethereum hard fork as a major factor. This shift aims to reduce complexity and enhance performance.
RISC-V architecture offers 32 registers and approximately 40 instructions, providing a narrower tracking range for proof systems. This allows for real-time construction and immediate processing of proof fragments. Additionally, RISC-V features a narrower execution path and Type-1 compatibility, while maintaining zkC (constraint native language), Vortex, Arcane (proof/aggregation stack), and formal verification.
Linea noted that this move aligns closely with the Ethereum Foundation's ongoing RISC-V roadmap, with further technical details expected to be released in the coming weeks.#Ethereum #L2 #Linea #RISC-V #Architecture #Cryptography #zkC #ProofSystems #EthereumFoundation #Vortex #Arcane #FormalVerification #ETH
