SCROLL, the Ethereum COUSE-2 network, shared on Wednesday that it had launched its upgrade of Euclides, that the team called its most important protocol processing to date.
According to Scroll Labs, a key consequence of the upgrade is that he transitions scroll from a “stadium 0” to a “stadium 1” bearing, which means that the network will remove certain centralized controlled safety characteristics in order to become more decentralized.
“Euclid represents the biggest jump forward for Scroll since its creation,” wrote the team in a blog article shared with Coindesk. “This is a declaration on the future of Scroll and its commitment to push the limits of what is possible in the ZK Rollup Arena.”
Euclide upgrade includes a range of features designed to improve network performance, increase compatibility for certain applications and reduce data storage costs. In addition, the upgrade makes wallets more user -friendly Account abstractionwhich allows developers to automate certain features thanks to intelligent contracts.
Scroll is a zero knowledge roll – a blockchain scaling solution that uses zero knowledge technology to treat cheaper transactions and more efficiently than on the basic network, Ethereum.
The new upgrade arrives while Scroll saw its user activity falling towards the bottom of all time. Currently, $ 62.6 million is locked with the protocol, down 94% compared to the top of all times in the network of more than $ 900 million, according to Defilma data.
Scroll’s TVL rushed from October 18, 2024, that is to say when a snapshot was taken to determine the eligibility for the scroll token.
The affirmation of Scroll according to which with the upgrade of the ulicide, it went to a Rollup “Stage 1” follows a blog article in 2022 of the co-founder Ethereum Vitalik Buterin, which proposed to categorize the Rollups according to their decentralization. Buterin presented its executive at the start of the Rollups, when almost all the networks of “Layer -2” used so -called training wheels – characteristics that sacrificed decentralization for efficiency, safety and other advantages.
Without clear standards to communicate the stadium of a Rollup, Buerine feared that they risk misleading users as to their level of security, and it indicated on x that it would only publicly mention the layers of layer 2 which had reached step 1 or beyond.
At that time, only arbitrum and optimism were at this stage. Since then, Unichain, Ink and Kinto have joined them, According to L2Beat.
The Euclid upgrade helps to decentralize the Scroll sequencer, the system that treats and commands transactions before being sent to Ethereum. According to Scroll’s blog post, the new features guarantee that the Scroll team cannot block unilaterally or censor transactions, which was theoretically possible under the older configuration.
Scroll says it is the first zero knowledge rollup to reach stadium phase 1.
