ZKSync to End Support for ZKSync Lite on Ethereum by 2026, Announces Migration Plan and Timelines

COINOTAG News reports, citing official sources, that ZKsync plans to end support for ZKsync Lite (ZKsync 1.0) in 2026, the inaugural ZK Rollup launched on Ethereum. This milestone underscores a strategic shift in the Layer 2 landscape and signals a formal transition pathway for builders and users.

For now, operations remain normal and no immediate action is required. Funds remain secure and withdrawals to L1 will continue to be supported throughout the deprecation window, ensuring continued liquidity access during the migration period.

Over the coming year, ZKsync will publish a detailed decommissioning plan, including timelines and formal migration guidelines to facilitate a smooth handover for affected accounts and ecosystems.

Industry observers will watch for the accompanying governance updates, which are expected to provide clarity on support channels, potential rollback considerations, and long‑term scalability implications for Ethereum Layer-2 users.
