Episode notes

This chapter delves into the concept of enshrining within Ethereum, discussing enshrining smart contracts for L2 interoperability and critical functions. It also touches on the implementation of eigenlayer and the need for testing software before protocol implementation. The chapter explores various topics such as account abstraction, restaking risks, the complexity of scaling L2s, and potential impacts on ETH's price and centralization.

In today's episode Dan and Sam are joined by host of Bell Curve Podcast & Blockworks Co-Founder Michael and Blockworks research analyst Matt. The team dives into their key takeaways of the EthCC and converse on zkEVM problems, the bull case for centralization, scaling solutions, interoperability, and much more!
