One of the core development teams behind the Ethereum (ETH) Merge, Prysmatic Labs, has been acquired by Offchain Labs, the developer of Ethereum layer-2 network Arbitrum.
"Merging with Offchain Labs made perfect sense to us as an Ethereum team because we develop software extensively in Go, are fully incentive-aligned with the success of Ethereum, and are focused on shipping quality software for others to use,” Jordan said.
They are still developing Prysm as a fully open-source and neutral consensus client and bringing EIP-4844 data-sharding to production.
The post ends by teasing possible future collaborations between the two teams.
“There are several other joint initiatives that we plan to work on together, furthering both L1 and L2 development.”
