# Status Network Merges Into Linea > Status to consolidate its technical work, liquidity, and community into Linea instead of launching as a standalone L2. **Published by:** [ETH Daily](https://ethdaily.io/) **Published on:** 2026-04-30 **Categories:** news, 2026, april2026, status, status-network, linea, consensys, l2, snt, privacy **URL:** https://ethdaily.io/status-network-merges-into-linea ## Content Status Network has announced plans to consolidate its technical work, liquidity, and community into Linea rather than launching as a standalone L2. The merge will bring Status Network's core innovations, including ephemeral accounts, free cover traffic, untraceable agents, and decoupled execution, to the broader Linea ecosystem. The move also allows Status to refocus on its flagship product, the Status App, originally launched in June 2017. Pre-deposit vaults for the Status L2 are now closed and will be migrated to Linea mainnet, where users will be able to withdraw their principal, accrued yield, and liquid rewards. A reward pool has also been approved for pre-depositors. No action is required before the claim. Status Network's privacy-first design aligns with Vitalik's Ethereum privacy roadmap, which prioritizes private transactions as a default user experience.Sponsored byEarnUSD is a stablecoin vault by Lido for earning transparent, onchain USD-denominated rewards.
