Session
EEZ (Ethereum Economic Zone) enables synchronous inter-rollup calls while preserving Ethereum's trust model. This talk explains the EEZ protocol, how rollups exchange synchronous call information through Ethereum blobs, and the smart contracts that coordinate execution. We'll discuss the proving assumptions behind the protocol, compare different proving technologies (ZK, TEEs, multisigs), present our ZisK-based implementation, and share performance benchmarks.
