The Ethereum Layer 2 network Scroll is set to undergo a network upgrade, transitioning from a general-purpose blockchain to a private, AI-focused infrastructure over nine months. The project integrates AI into its operations and product development, including Compass, Compass API, CENO, USX, and SCR. The Compass API routes over 30 LLM models, while CENO, built on ZK technology, serves as a trust layer for AI agents. SCR will remain on the Ethereum mainnet with no changes to its tokenomics. Scroll states that this update is not a formal proposal and will submit a finalized plan to the DAO for review. This development contributes to the expanding landscape of AI and crypto news.

ChainThink reports that, on September 9, according to a post on the Scroll governance forum, the Ethereum L2 Scroll team plans to transition Scroll from a general-purpose public chain into a private, application-specific network built around Compass and its AI product ecosystem, with an estimated overall transition period of approximately nine months.

The team stated that over the past several months, AI has been applied to network operations and product development, and they are building a product ecosystem comprising Compass, Compass API, CENO, USX, and SCR.

Among these, Compass provides AI models along with features such as VPN and eSIM; Compass API offers routing services for over 30 LLM models; and CENO leverages ZK technology to provide a trust layer for AI agents, enabling secure credentials, context, and privacy-preserving computations.

CENO currently has over 30 potential customers, with 12 undergoing proof-of-concept (POC) testing; Compass is still in the early stage of consumer validation.

As part of the transition plan, SCR will migrate to the Ethereum mainnet to maintain broad accessibility and liquidity; its supply and overall tokenomics will remain unchanged, and it will continue to serve as the governance token of the Scroll network.

Scroll emphasizes that this post is solely an update on progress and not a formal proposal or vote; the network transition plan will be submitted separately for DAO consideration once details are finalized.
