The Ethereum Economic Zone promises to stitch fragmented rollups back into a single system, but a similar model struggled to gain traction on Cosmos.
Ethereum builders are pushing a new way to unify the ecosystem after years of fragmentation caused by the very networks designed to scale it.
On Sunday, veteran Ethereum builder Gnosis and zero-knowledge virtual machine project Zisk unveiled the Ethereum Economic Zone (EEZ), a framework aimed at linking layer-2 rollups more tightly to the base network.
The proposal positions Ethereum as the central hub, with Ether (ETH) remaining the gas token and settlement layer. It also introduces a model where smart contracts can interact across mainnet and EEZ rollups with atomic execution.
