The Ethereum ecosystem is ushering in a new technological direction. Hsiao-Wei Wang, Co-Executive Director of the Ethereum Foundation, recently stated that zero-knowledge proof technology has been officially incorporated into Ethereum's mid-term development roadmap, and is expected to play an increasingly important role at the protocol level.

This signal is very significant. Hsiao-Wei Wang pointed out that over the past one or two years, the zero-knowledge proof field has achieved multiple technological breakthroughs. Especially the progress of zkEVM (Zero-Knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine) has made this once highly complex technology more feasible. She stated that these innovations not only improve system efficiency but also open up new possibilities for Ethereum's scalability solutions.

In other words, Ethereum is exploring how to deeply integrate zero-knowledge proofs into the underlying protocol. This means that Ethereum's security and scalability are expected to be further optimized in the future. For the entire ecosystem, this could be a turning point.
