Migrating to Ethereum Layer-2 Solution

Recently, the Celo network embraced a proposal to transition from its independent blockchain to an Ethereum layer-2 solution. The primary goal of this move is to simplify liquidity sharing between the two networks and strengthen security. To expedite and facilitate this migration, the team behind Celo, cLabs, will harness the power of Google Cloud’s Blockchain Node Engine, a fully managed node-hosting service.

The implementation of the Blockchain Node Engine will streamline node operations for Celo participants by efficiently relaying transactions, eliminating the need for nodes to sync and significantly improving efficiency. This seamless integration will enhance Celo 2.0‘s compatibility with the Ethereum network, reinforcing its strong position within the broader ecosystem.
