Exploring Base Rollups and Synchrony in Ethereum
This chapter examines the novel mechanics of base rollups within the Ethereum ecosystem, focusing on their ability to achieve full synchrony through shared sequencing and real-time proving. It discusses the implications for decentralized finance applications, the challenges of scaling shared sequencing, and proposes a future where application-specific rollups can enhance transaction efficiency and reduce fragmentation. Additionally, the chapter touches on the necessary evolution of Ethereum Layer 1 capabilities to support these advancements, including concepts like trustless pre-confirmations and attester-proposer separation.
