Sentient’s mission is to ensure that Artificial General Intelligence is open-source and not controlled by any single entity.
We’re launching the GRID: the world’s largest network of intelligence.
The GRID makes open-source the default for AI development and ensures humanity wins the future of AI.
Let’s dive in👇
To interoperate, L2s need to communicate.
Today, the most secure way for L2s to do this is pass messages via the Ethereum L1—but that takes 15+ min & costs $$
For interop to work well, L2s need to swap messages in seconds.
Let's explore how we can make this possible. 🧵👇

With the Avail DA mainnet approaching, it's about time we gave you a refresher on its core features. They make us different from other DA layers.
A deep-dive into
1. Validity proofs
2. Erasure coding
3. Light clients
4. Data availability sampling
5. Expandable blockspace
(1/6)
Avail gives you interoperability with all other blockchains, no matter where you choose to build. OP Stack, Ethereum, Polygon CDK, you name it.
With the foundation of a common DA layer built for security and scale (Avail DA), interoperability between chains is drastically simplified.
Why?
They share a common trust zone. DA provides transaction ordering, and then execution proofs verify state transitions.
How?
Combining both transaction ordering and execution proofs is the key.
Nexus doesn’t enforce integration requirements on developers - you can build wherever and Nexus just works.
Hear us out, if you’re building an L2 on Bitcoin, you should use Avail. Here’s why:
BTC L2s can move 99% faster when leveraging Avail DA as an intermediate fast DA layer before posting to Bitcoin for DA.
Avail DA has 20 sec blocks and takes around 2 blocks to reach finality providing DA guarantees to L2s in ~40 seconds.
Bitcoin has 10min blocks and reaches finality every 6 blocks providing finality in ~1 hour.
Your BTC L2 can post transactions to Avail DA every 20 seconds and receive interim finality in 40 seconds. Transactions can then be posted to BTC for DA every 10 min and finalize in ~1 hour.
