Introduction

The proposal is to accept the ownership of the wstETH bridging on zkSync Era components by the Lido DAO. If Snapshot passes, the management of the wstETH bridging components is set to be performed by the Lido DAO.

Matter Labs proposed the deployment of wstETH (Wrapped staked ETH) to zkSync Era, with the ultimate goal of acceptance of ownership of the wstETH bridging components by the Lido DAO.

Namely:

1. Upgrade authority owned by Lido DAO Aragon Agent contract on L1 and L2

2. Pausability by Emergency Brakes multisig.

This initiative has been undertaken by the Matter Labs & TxFusion team who deployed the wstETH canonical bridge to zkSync, inspired by the same open-source solution previously applied in the Optimism deployment.

This marks a historical milestone for zkSync and its ecosystem! It’s the first zk rollup proposed to be endorsed by Lido DAO for wstETH, and we’re incredibly proud to be part of this journey alongside the Lido DAO, a true market leader.

Motivation

zkSync Era Mainnet was launched on March 24, 2023. zkSync currently crossed over $440M TVL (grown +50% in the last four months), and unique wallets have crossed 3.7M. Transaction volume has averaged +15% week-over-week growth the last four months with a few times surpassing Ethereum itself on daily transactions. This marks just the beginning with key network infrastructure upgrades coming within the next few months which will catalyze growth of TVL, users and transaction growth, as many protocols will now be able to launch.

Lido wstETH has the overwhelming market share of staked ETH and can be used interoperably in DeFi. Therefore, major ecosystems such as zkSync have significant demand for wstETH as it opens up opportunities for users to utilize stETH holdings in various DeFi protocols. Some examples include using wstETH as collateral, lending, indexing, minting, vaults, stables, etc.

Taking a page from the Optimism playbook, we’re leveraging an open-source solution (check out GitHub) to make this happen.

Lido DAO is stepping up to manage the wstETH bridging components. You can find the details in the GitHub repository.

We’re proposing that the Lido DAO formally takes ownership of these bridging components.
