The EEZ allows smart contracts on different rollups to execute synchronously without relying on bridges.

The initiative includes founding members such as Aave, Flashbots, Nethermind, and Centrifuge.

The EEZ uses real-time zero-knowledge proving to enable multiple rollups to execute as one chain.

Contracts on an EEZ rollup can call contracts on mainnet or other EEZ rollups within a single transaction.

ETH serves as the default gas token, and no new token is introduced.

The EEZ Alliance is an informal collective committed to unifying the EVM landscape.

“Developers from Gnosis and Zisk, backed by the Ethereum Foundation, have proposed a new framework aimed at unifying Ethereum’s fragmented layer-2 ecosystem by enabling rollups to interact seamlessly with each other and the mainnet in a single transaction”

The EEZ will be governed under a Swiss non-profit.

All software will be released as free and open-source.

The EEZ proposal comes amid debate over Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap.

A new L2 was appearing roughly every 19 days.
