Gnosis and Zisk Launch "Ethereum Economic Zone" Rollup Framework Funded by Ethereum Foundation

On March 29, according to The Block, Gnosis co-founder Friederike Ernst and Zisk founder Jordi Baylina announced a new "easy" plan at the EthCC conference in Cannes: the Ethereum Economic Zone (EEZ). This initiative, co-funded by the Ethereum Foundation, aims to create a framework that allows Rollups to compose in a single transaction with the Ethereum mainnet and interact with each other. The EEZ is designed to enable smart contracts on connected Rollups to call contracts on the mainnet or other EEZ Rollups, providing the same guarantees as if they were deployed on Ethereum itself. The framework uses ETH as the default gas token, eliminating the need for additional bridging infrastructure.
