Modular execution layers, application-specific rollups, computational scalability, and the cone of innovation.

Modular execution layers, application-specific rollups, computational scalability, and the cone of innovation. Understand how we're tying all these concepts together into a coherent thesis and how that guided the design decisions behind what we're building. We describe what we believe is the best way to stop Ethereum from becoming a rich people's playground every time a new popular trend pops up. We argue why we need better abstractions, why we need to reevaluate the priority on composability, and why we could make use of different VMs. We also talk about our visions for the future, the synergy between data capabilities and computational capabilities, and the programmability issue we need to solve. Always keen on chatting about these concepts, so please hit me up if you have comments! (Co-founder Erick de Moura on the latest Cartesi tech-thesis) Retweet:
