Ethereum compatibility describes the ability of a blockchain network or application to function seamlessly with the Ethereum ecosystem’s standards and tools. This typically means supporting the Ethereum Virtual Machine, ERC token standards, and developer tools, allowing for easy migration of decentralized applications. Such compatibility enables interoperability, liquidity sharing, and access to a broad user and developer base. It facilitates the expansion of decentralized finance and Web3 services across different chains.
Context

News frequently reports on new chains or protocols that achieve EVM compatibility, often positioning themselves as alternatives or scaling solutions. The ongoing debate concerns whether a multi-chain future will prioritize direct compatibility or more generalized bridging solutions.
