A group of Ethereum projects have announced a new effort aimed at fixing a growing problem in Ethereum: its ecosystem is becoming too fragmented. Revealed at the EthCC conference in Cannes, the project, called the “Ethereum Economic Zone” (EEZ), is designed to make Ethereum’s many add-on networks (known as layer 2s, or L2s) work together more seamlessly.
The framework is being developed by Gnosis, Zisk and the Ethereum Foundation. Gnosis is a longtime Ethereum infrastructure developer, while Zisk focuses on zero-knowledge proving technology.
It comes as Ethereum for years relied on L2 networks to scale, though these networks often operate like separate islands. Users have to move assets between them using bridges, which can be slow, costly and risky, while developers often have to rebuild the same tools on each network.
The EEZ aims to change that by making all these networks feel like one unified system. In simple terms, it would allow apps and transactions on different Ethereum networks to interact instantly — without needing bridges — while still relying on Ethereum’s core security.
