Deep dives
The Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) is coming to Ethereum as a layer two
The main idea discussed in this episode is the introduction of the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) to Ethereum as a layer two solution. The SVM is considered superior to Ethereum's EVM due to its multi-threaded execution capabilities, scalability, and additional features. The Eclipse mainnet is the layer two solution that embeds the SVM, and it is described as an entire framework similar to the optimism super chain network. The episode discusses the implications of this development, such as the potential winners and losers in the Ethereum-Solana ecosystem, and the impact on the future of the industry.
