Why everyone is converging on the same path to scaling blockchains
Take a look at what's happening across many of the differing ecosystems. If you do, you'll find one thing in common. They are all converging on the same path

Stateless rollups
Full nodes verify blocks by downloading all transactions and re-executing them to check their validity. Unsurprisingly, larger blocks place a greater burden on full nodes – more hardware required to process and verify each
Decentralized sequencers: where do we go next?
Centralized sequencers are the current norm for rollups and most, if not all, plan to decentralize the sequencer in the future. There is no correct way to decentralize as multiple options exist that
A snapshot of the current rollup ecosystem
Rollups have come a long way since their initial conception in 2019. We’ve seen a distinction emerge between two primary contenders and a varying assortment of other promising theoretical designs that encompass
Composability in a rollup ecosystem
One of the most common criticisms of rollups is that they “break composability”. This has been a major argument from most monolithic chain maximalists. However, ‘one chain to rule them all’ is an
