PANews reported on January 19th that Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin stated that he is currently "significantly more supportive" of native rollups (EIP-8079). He explained that his previous opposition stemmed from the fact that native rollup precompilation required a choice between "ZK mode" and "optimistic mode." Early ZK-EVM was immature, leading projects to favor solutions with 2-7 day withdrawal periods but Ethereum-secured guarantees, thus composability. Now, with Ethereum's timeline for adopting ZK at L1 largely aligned with the timeline for adding native rollup precompilation, this concern has been alleviated. Vitalik also emphasized the importance of carefully designing precompilations so that rollups with "EVM + a few features" can use a unified precompilation and come with provers for newly added features.
