Linea, a layer-2 (L2) solution operating on top of the Ethereum blockchain, has announced the arrival of its first contributor to its open-source L2 rollup project.
Linea Decentralization Roadmap
The partnership with Status represents a milestone in Linea’s longer-term decentralization roadmap to establish a more transparent, secure, and collaborative ecosystem. According to the press release, the Linea team has been focused on its open-source stack since the successful launch of Linea mainnet alpha.
Status Network Contribution to Linea
According to the press release, the Status team will contribute to ongoing engineering on Linea, including conducting research and supporting client and prover diversity. Cyprien Grau, a Status core contributor, stated that the network and Linea have 'a shared vision' to further decentralization on the Ethereum blockchain.
Focus on zkEVM Technology
Zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine (zkEVM) technology is at the core of Linea’s solution for scaling Ethereum. The approach aims to address challenges involving high fees and low transaction throughput on the Ethereum blockchain through Linea’s zkEVM L2 rollup solution. This latest development follows Vitalik Buterin’s recent statement regarding cross-chain interoperability between Ethereum L2 networks.
The partnership with Status will strengthen the Linea ecosystem and support further development of zkEVM technologies to address Ethereum scaling challenges.
