Ethereum L2 Solution, Scroll, Complements Bernoulli Mainnet Upgrade: Improved Scalability and Security

Bittime - Scroll, an Ethereum Layer 2 ( L2 ) network, has announced the successful completion of its Bernoulli mainnet upgrade. This upgrade brings significant improvements to the scalability and functionality of the Scroll network, as well as strengthening its security.

EIP-4844 and Transaction Fee Reduction

A key component of the Bernoulli upgrade is EIP-4844 integration. EIP (Ethereum Improvement Proposal) 4844 is a proposed standard for Ethereum that aims to improve network scalability by introducing the concept of “blob data.”

Blob data allows storing transaction data outside of Ethereum's main chain (L1) which is expensive, but remains verifiably secure. This means Scroll can process more transactions at much lower costs, estimated at up to 10x depending on L1 gas prices.

The Bernoulli upgrade also brings support for SHA2-256 precompilation. SHA2-256 is a cryptographic hash function commonly used in various blockchain applications. 

This precompilation support allows Scroll to run smart contracts that use SHA2-256 more efficiently, paving the way for more complex dApps .

Improved Security with ZKEVM Circuits

In addition to scalability improvements, the Bernoulli upgrade also focuses on improving security. Scroll zkEVM (Zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine) uses cryptographic circuitry to prove the validity of transactions without revealing detailed data. This upgrade includes improvements to the ZKEVM circuitry, including:

• Barycentric Gadget: Ensures the integrity of blob data with transaction batches, so that the data published is as it should be.
• SHA2-256 sub-circuit: Efficiently processes SHA2-256 hash functions within the circuit, increasing the efficiency of smart contracts that use SHA2-256.
• Witness Creation Optimization: Speed ​​up the transaction proof process in the ZKEVM circuit.

Impact on DApps and Indexers

The Bernoulli upgrade is a hard fork that requires node operators to update their software before the activation block. 

From a dApp perspective, these upgrades are generally compatible. However, indexers will need to adapt their decoders to handle the new data format that Scroll uses to publish data to Ethereum. 

The Future of Scroll

The Bernoulli upgrade marks a significant step forward for Scroll. With improvements in scalability, functionality, and security, Scroll is increasingly ready to support broader blockchain adoption. 

Scroll is expected to be the Layer 2 solution of choice for developers and users looking for a faster, more cost-effective and secure transaction experience in the Ethereum ecosystem.
