PANews reported on June 10th that, according to The Block, Consensys CEO Joseph Lubin stated that Ethereum is expected to evolve into a protocol entirely based on zero-knowledge proofs (ZK proofs) within the next 3 to 5 years. This will enhance Layer 1 performance through solutions like "Lean Ethereum" and improve composability with various Layer 2 protocols. Lubin stated that current L2 protocols such as Linea and Gnosis have implemented real-time ZK proofs for cross-network synchronous transactions, and in the future, they may enable a single atomic execution environment without bridges, thereby unifying fragmented liquidity. He emphasized that the initial intention of the Rollup approach was to allow L2 to sacrifice some pricing power in exchange for technological exploration, and it is currently moving from a "divergent phase" to a "convergent phase" focused on composability. He also denied the emergence of a "second foundation," stating that the Ethereum Foundation will have at least three teams spun off to focus on protocol, usability, and institutional expansion.
