Risks of Rollup (aka. Comparing Rollup with World Supercomputer)
May 10th, 2023
After years of research and development, L2 Rollup has emerged as the most widely adopted scaling solution for enhancing the performance of Ethereum's world computer. As an additional layer built on top of Ethereum, L2 Rollup offers significant benefits and has been embraced by the community.
Criticism on ZK
April 20th, 2023
The main criticisms against ZK would include two, one being the long proof time, (hence the various benchmarks, various new ZK protocols, and various hardware optimizations), and one being that system and application security still needs to be tested.
AI Rollup, replacing fault/validity proof with AI oracle proof
April 16th, 2023
For proving that “Rollup's program” is executing correctly, we need to provide some commitments. These commitments can be Fault Proof and Validity Proof in Optimistic and ZK Rollup.
Notes on Hyper Oracle Whitepaper
March 25th, 2023
It's been ten days since the Hyper Oracle whitepaper was released, and this article will explain and add to some of the content of the Hyper Oracle whitepaper. The original content was taken from my twitter.
Diffs between OP and ZK System
January 13th, 2023
The real "finality" of the two is different, similarly to the "real performance". (Of course the definition of finality is also a matter of opinion, a matter of wisdom....)
Crypto-Native Indexing Protocol and Keeper Protocol
October 26th, 2022
Existing Indexing protocols and Keeper networks are not completely trustless, but trusted, or seemingly trustless. Developers and users need to trust that these products are not evil in a “Trust, Not Verify” way.
The Second-Generation Optimistic Rollups
October 18th, 2022
Although Vitalik has identified zkEVM Rollup as the future for several years, and various zkEVMs (Scroll, zkSync, Hermez, Consensys) have sprung up, Optimistic Rollup is still the dominant stack in the Rollup ecosystem, with 80% of the Layer2 market share and half of the top 10 Layer2 solutions.
App-chain > On-chain App?
October 5th, 2022
As the Rollup narrative is gaining attention and the industry as a whole is demanding better performance, more sovereignty, and easier deployment from App-chains. StarkEx’s App-rollup service, Celestia’s reusable Layer1 security layer, and other high-performance DA solutions have become the mainstream choices in building App-chains.
Crypto-Native Oracle TWAP
September 10th, 2022
Blockchains have two sources of data: on-chain data (e.g. the amount of ETH held by an address), and off-chain data (e.g. the current price of ETH on the exchange). To get the latter, the oracle needs to tell this data to the smart contract.
