    - zkevm-chain testing
      - End-to-End integration tests pipeline (subcircuits and supercircuit)
      - Proof generation benchmarks for worst case block per circuit (evm, keccak, state, bytecode) 


- Ongoing activities ***:

  - STG environment for selected projects
- zkevm:
  - GitHub Actions
    - Migrate expensive workflows (circuit benchmarks + integration tests with real prover) to AWS region(s) with cheaper compute
  - zkevm-chain testing:
     - Implement remainig worst case scenarios for benchmarks (copy, tx, etc)
     - Validation of L1 blocks
     - Proof Benchmarking on hw accelerated compute
     - Explore fuzz test/analysis on Geth+zkevm-chain (initiative by EF)
