On April 8, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said at the "Web3 Scholars Summit 2025" in Hong Kong that Ethereum's long-term goal is to achieve 12-second native asynchronous communication between L1 and L2, reducing bridging latency and costs. To this end, he proposed a "four-step" solution: including the "ZK+TEE+OP two out of three" design, asynchronous reading of L1 through L1SLOAD, unified proof integration mechanism, and deployment of low-latency verifiers. He emphasized that in the future, users can still use the intention model to obtain a faster or better cost experience, but the basic communication system will tend to be low-cost and high-coupled.
