Ethereum Economic Zone launches Rollup X and Aztec unveils Tierra upgrade
EEZ introduced Rollup X on a devnet, showcasing atomic cross‑network calls between Ethereum and rollups without bridge messages, with demos using L1 liquidity, wallet updates, and Falcon signatures. The testnet is under security audit and aims for Gnosis Chain migration in 2027. Aztec launched the Tierra upgrade on its Alpha V6 network, halving private transaction proof times to about one second and adding formal verification and AI‑driven security testing; message delivery between Ethereum and Aztec now drops to 12 seconds. L2BEAT rebranded as ETHBEAT to broaden its research beyond Layer 2s. ZisK demonstrated real‑time proving on Optimism mainnet, generating proofs in ~11 seconds using high‑end GPUs. Additional notes: Devcon Day 2 livestream, Crédit Mutuel Arkéa hack loss of $133 million, and Ape Chain migration to Chainlink CCIP.
