INSIGHT

Shared Sequencing Explained

  • Sequencing determines which transactions go into a rollup.
  • Sharing sequencers allows multiple rollups to coordinate transaction inclusion.
INSIGHT

Benefits of Shared Sequencing

  • Shared sequencers increase opportunities for double coincidence of wants between rollups.
  • This enables atomic transactions across rollups, like buying an NFT on one with cash from another.

Ethereum's Composability Arc

  • Ethereum Layer 1 provides a minimum viable composability layer for rollups through asynchronous settlement.
  • Shared sequencing and other innovations enhance this baseline composability.
