ZKsync achieves full EVM equivalence, allowing developers to seamlessly deploy Ethereum contracts "

On May 7, ZKsync officially announced that ZKsync has now achieved full EVM Equivalence. Developers can directly use the EVM bytecode compiled by Solidity to deploy it on the ZKsync chain, without the need to use special tools such as zkSolc and Foundry ZKsync. This feature was introduced through an upgrade to version 27 of the protocol and was officially approved for launch by governance proposal ZIP-9. EVM bytecode will be executed on top of EraVM through the EVM interpreter, achieving seamless compatibility with mainstream Ethereum development tools such as Foundry, Hardhat, and Remix. Despite this, due to differences in running modes, this mechanism still has limitations such as different gas calculation methods, not supporting some EVM instructions (such as CALLCODE, SELFDESTRICT), and higher execution costs than native EraVM contracts. ZKsync recommends that performance-sensitive projects still prioritize native development of EraVM. The upgrade will gradually expand to other ZK chains in the Elastic Network.
