The technology behind Linea was developed by Ethereum ecosystem leaders and core protocol developers at Consensys. The work was led by Nicolas Liochon, who has driven over seven years of zk research and development, and Joe Lubin, the CEO of Consensys and co-founder of Ethereum.
Today, the Linea Association is decentralizing ownership of the network to the community to create a censorship resistant, permissionless, and Ethereum-aligned L2.
Along with the hundreds of projects that have chosen to deploy on Linea, Consensys and Metamask will be decentralizing its future projects on the home network for the world.
