ME News reports that on September 4 (UTC+8), ZKsync tweeted that over the next six months, all Boojum/EraVM chains will begin phasing out the legacy execution environment, with each chain setting and publishing its own timeline. ZKsync stated that this move aims to address security risks arising from AI significantly lowering the cost of vulnerability discovery. The successor architecture to EraVM, ZKsync Atlas, was designed from the ground up to accommodate this new landscape and is unaffected by this upgrade. Funds in EOA wallets require no action; however, funds held via smart contracts—such as multisignature wallets, smart accounts, or DEXs—will need to take action once each chain announces its migration plan.

KuCoinFlashShare
Summary
ZKsync is entering a consolidation phase, phasing out legacy execution environments over six months. All Boojum/EraVM chains will publish individual timelines. The upgrade addresses security risks associated with AI-driven vulnerability discovery. ZKsync Atlas remains unaffected. Users with EOA wallets need take no action, but multisig, smart accounts, and DEX holders must act once migration details are released. This move reflects a calculated risk-to-reward ratio aimed at long-term stability.
