Notes from @CelestiaOrg episode with @SkipProtocol, @AstriaOrg, and @dualityxyz on modular MEV

[Celestia @celestia]

What does MEV look like in the modular stack?

We were joined by folks from @SkipProtocol, @dualityxyz, and @AstriaOrg to explore:

• MEV capture and distribution
• MEV extraction in the modular stack
• Sovereignty over MEV

Dive in 👇

Testnets go brr

[Celestia @celestia]

Introducing Arabica & Mocha: two new data availability testnets for Celestia, bringing a faster erasure coding library that speeds up the encoder by 30x.

Check out the new features now ready for experimentation

Introducing Celestia Spotlight, a series where we hear from the people at the forefront of the modular movement 🧱

For the first episode, we welcome @neelsomani from @EclipseFND!

@consensus128 Yes, this would likely need to happen at some point. It also solves the same bottleneck that statelessness suffers from, so it opens up an even more interesting design space for secure light nodes.

[Celestia Scholar @celestiascholar]

The next step is light node wallets. At that point, users will be contributing to security and decentralization without manually needing to spin up their own node. Your favorite monoliths aren't thinking about this

A rollup-centric future is a multichain future. Just instead of many L1s its many rollups (L2s, L3s)

[pseudo 🇺🇦 @pseudotheos]

A rollup-centric future has a similar UX to a multichain future, but mature rollups have a much better security model.

@dberenzon @matt_bitcoin What? There are existing tutorials for building sovereign rollup testnets already

[evan 🌸 @evansforbes]

We can secure so many sovereign chains w/ @CelestiaOrg, that I'm excited not just for app specific chains, but "instance" specific chains.

instead of one app chain for all instances (GitHub), we can have a chain per instance (git repo)

Launching the new Celestia “Mamaki” testnet and introducing the Alpha Data Availability API! 🍵🧵

[Celestia Scholar @celestiascholar]

@attertweet @ColeSouth Bitcoin has nowhere near enough DA capacity to be useful or scalable. To increase DA capacity, a block size increase is necessary, which would never happen. As such, rollups can't help Bitcoin - has to be something like a validium with off-chain DA.

[Celestia Scholar @celestiascholar]

@epolynya Veblen good implies that users demand more blockspace when its price increases. In reality, users will continue to demand blockspace until EV is breakeven or negative (fee + mint = $0 future profit)

[Celestia Scholar @celestiascholar]

@LoganJastremski Blockspace refers to block capacity

Layer 2s have their transactions directly validated by an L1, accounting for much more than transaction compression.

Data availability is concerned with data being available when it is published to the network.

[Celestia Scholar @celestiascholar]

Celestia's vision is a marriage of Cosmos' sovereign interoperable zones and a rollup-centric Ethereum with shared security.

Got frontrun by multiple people. Down bad.
