Aligned Layer: Super Scaling Ethereum with Optimistic ZK Proofs

Подробнее о видео

In this video I talk about the L2 landscape for Ethereum and why it's currently dominated by Optimistic roll-ups, but will likely evolve toward ZK roll-ups. I then break down some of the costs that roll-ups pay to Ethereum, specifically compute costs. Then we look at Aligned Layer and how it can reduce these compute costs for ZK roll-ups by allowing for "optimistic" ZK proof verification.
