🚨🔗 BREAKING: ZKSYNC WILL DEPRECATE ZKSYNC LITE IN 2026, SUNSETTING ETHEREUM’S FIRST ZK-ROLLUP.
• Launched in 2020 as ZKsync 1.0, Lite enabled payments, swaps & NFT minting but lacked smart contracts.
• Matter Labs shifted focus to ZKsync Era (zkEVM) in 2023, calling Lite a “proof-of-concept.”
• Around $50M in user funds remain bridged; withdrawals to L1 will continue.
• The future lies with ZK Stack, Prividiums & broader ZKsync network.
