According to official sources, L2 network Linea has announced the official launch of Alpha v2 upgrade, with the aim of reducing the cost of publishing data and zero-knowledge proof verification on the Ethereum chain by about 90%. It is reported that Alpha V2 has now completed the deployment of Linea's mainnet and introduced two new features, proof aggregation and data compression. Now, each Linea transaction will be summarized into one batch and published to the first layer (L1). Through proof aggregation, Linea can recursively prove many consecutive batches of transactions as one final proof, thereby making the verification cost of N batches cheaper by N times; data compression can effectively encode duplicate bytes, which meets the requirement of maintaining low computational cost.
