Introducing ZK Proof Verification Into The Modular Thesis X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | The acceleration of ZK is happening at a rapid pace. Last week we covered the collaboration between Succinct and AggLayer on the proof generation side using SP1, a generalized ZKVM. Today, we’re excited to share insights from our recent chat with RJ and [...]
The past, present, and future of based rollups X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | There’s been a lot going on in the zeitgest with regards to based rollups, pre-confirmations, MEV, and whether or not based rollups are going to make it in the longer term. We’re about to find out. In today’s podcast, we were joined by [...]
Is Bitcoin staking a reliable and secure way to earn yield on BTC? X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | Welcome to episode 4 of Bitcoin and Beyond. We all know Bitcoin as the original Proof of Work chain, so how does staking come into play? In today’s episode we explore CoreDAO’s consensus mechanism, staking offering, and technical [...]
Where SVM & Bitcoin scaling collide X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | One of the best parts about our modular thesis is that it also applies to Bitcoin. We are seeing the same ideas of bringing next-gen VMs to Bitcoin scaling in the same way that we see with with Ethereum rollups. Notably, the tech hurdles to [...]
BoB’s Hybrid Scaling Solution: Key Technical Differences & Tradeoffs X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | The trajectory to achieving a “full rollup” on Bitcoin is a gradual process, similar to that of Ethereum rollups gradually implementing fraud proofs/zk technology. Build on Bitcoin (BoB) has taken the approach of building a product (on mainnet now) which resembles more [...]
Welcome to the first episode of Bitcoin and Beyond where we dive into the technical architecture of Citrea X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | Welcome to the first episode of our Bitcoin and Beyond presentation series. We aim to provide you with technical knowledge about the state of different Bitcoin scaling solutions. Are they sidechains? L2s? True [...]
Explore how RiscZero leverages the RISC-V architecture and simplifies ZK proofs for practical implementation X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | We believe in a future of verifiable computation. The modular future cannot exist without zk. After last weeks video asking “Will ZK eat the modular stack?” and realizing its all but guaranteed, we have set out to [...]
A light-hearted and entertaining conversation on the state of the current market dynamics X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | gmodular: As we wrap up Modular March, we had one of the early believers in modularity and early angel investor in prominent projects (EigenDA, Avail, and others) to discuss the state of the crypto markets. We discussed the [...]
Unveiling the modular stack of FuelVM, FuelProver & Sequencer and more X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | gmodular: Another episode with an Ethereum scaling OG, Nick Dodson, who pioneered the original idea of optimistic rollups before they were the norm. Nick is actually also working on an innovative concept called fast finality optimistic rollups, which we are [...]
A Closer Look at Celestia’s Modular Approach, node architecture and innovative tech like Blobstream X (Twitter) | YouTube | Spotify | gmodular: The core innovation of data availability in the modular landscape revolves around minimalism. Due to the minimal smart contract execution capabilities of altDA chains, they can focus solely on providing a specialized service of data verification [...]
