PANews reported on December 8th that, according to The Block, ZKsync announced on Sunday that it plans to discontinue ZKsync Lite (formerly ZKsync 1.0), the original zero-knowledge rollup solution launched on Ethereum in 2020, sometime next year. In its announcement, ZKsync stated that this is a planned and orderly system phase-out, that the system has fulfilled its mission, and will not affect any other ZKsync systems. The team will release specific details, dates, and migration guidelines next year. According to L2BEAT data, although ZKsync Lite currently processes fewer than 200 operations per day, approximately $50 million in user funds remain on the network. ZKsync stated that the funds are safe, and withdrawals to L1 will continue to operate normally throughout the process. ZKsync emphasized that this discontinuation will not affect its other products. Matter Labs, the company behind ZKsync, reportedly launched the fully functional zkEVM, ZKsync Era, in March 2023. This system could run arbitrary smart contracts, and they have since ceased active development of ZKsync Lite. The team stated that their focus will now be on systems built on the ZK Stack, Prividiums, and the broader ZKsync network.PANews reported on December 8th that, according to The Block, ZKsync announced on Sunday that it plans to discontinue ZKsync Lite (formerly ZKsync 1.0), the original zero-knowledge rollup solution launched on Ethereum in 2020, sometime next year.

ZKsync plans to abandon its early network, ZKsync Lite, in 2026.

Why It Could Outperform Pepe Coin And Tron With Over $7m Already Raised

The post Why It Could Outperform Pepe Coin And Tron With Over $7m Already Raised appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 20:26 While meme tokens like Pepe Coin and established networks such as Tron attract headlines, many investors are now searching for projects that combine innovation, revenue-sharing and real-world utility. BlockchainFX ($BFX), currently in presale at $0.024 ahead of an expected $0.05 launch, is quickly becoming one of the best cryptos to buy today.

Early Presale Pricing Creates A Rare Entry Point BlockchainFX’s presale pricing structure has been designed to reward early participants. At $0.024, buyers secure a lower entry price than later rounds, locking in a cost basis more than 50% below the projected $0.05 launch price. As sales continue to climb beyond $7m, each new stage automatically increases the token price. This built-in mechanism creates a clear advantage for early investors and explains why the project is increasingly cited in “best presales to buy now” discussions across the crypto space. High-Yield Staking Model Shares Platform Revenue Beyond its presale appeal, BlockchainFX is creating a high-yield staking model that gives holders a direct share of platform revenue. Every time a trade occurs on its platform, 70% of trading fees flow back into the $BFX ecosystem: 50% of collected fees are automatically distributed to stakers in both BFX and USDT. 20% is allocated to daily buybacks of $BFX, adding demand and price support. Half of the bought-back tokens are permanently burned, steadily reducing supply. Rewards are based on the size of each member’s BFX holdings and capped at $25,000 USDT per day to ensure sustainability. This structure transforms token ownership from a speculative bet into an income-generating position, a rare feature among today’s altcoins. A Multi-Asset Platform…
