Linea and Status to collaborate on parallel chain

Aug 21, 2024
Linea, an EVM-equivalent Layer 2 network developed by Ethereum powerhouse Consensys, is entering into a strategic collaboration with Status, a decentralized, open-source communication super app. The partnership is set to focus on parallel chain development, with the goal of advancing the ecosystem of both projects.

Status, known for creating digital platforms that foster inclusive communities, will integrate with Linea’s network. As part of this collaboration, the new Status Network Layer 2 rollup will be the first to implement Linea’s code through newly established open-source repositories.

By working directly with Linea’s codebase, Status developers will operate a parallel version of Linea, contributing to the broader ecosystem. Their involvement will not only enhance client diversity but also support ongoing research efforts to further Linea’s decentralization roadmap.

This collaboration represents a significant milestone for both Linea and Status, as they join forces to expand the functionality and accessibility of decentralized communication platforms and Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 networks.
