ZK roll up to me always had this Ethereum context of Proverb Verifier, Verifier contract. I guess it's still use it Snarks. So I guess this is a good segue into sovereign roll ups or the different types of roll ups. Okay. We don't call these roll ups L2s of Cinesia because they're not bridging with Cinesia. We call them just roll ups or roll up chains, but specifically sovereign roll up chains. And so that's why the fraud and decay proofs are distributed, pay to peer.
In this week’s episode Anna Rose interviews Mustafa Al-Bassam, co-founder of Celestia. They cover where Celestia as an idea emerged from, how its rollup-centric data availability (DA) network works and what can be expected from their upcoming launch. They also chat about how Celestia aims to empower Sovereign chains - independent rollup chains that use Celestia as the DA and consensus layer - and how this Sovereign chain model compares with the Ethereum rollup architecture.
