Based Rollups

What are they, why do they exist, and which projects are already making waves?

A 101 explainer 👇

==================================

Scaling #Ethereum has been one of the most discussed challenges in crypto.

To address this, the community chose a rollup-centric approach. The idea is simple: Instead of hosting all applications on Ethereum, the focus is on rollups that offer faster, cheaper transactions while still settling back on Ethereum. As a result, you get faster, cheaper transactions, but still keep Ethereum’s security.

They're bringing more users and value to Ethereum, however, concerns remain about their reliance on centralized sequencers and liquidity fragmentation across chains.

This is where based rollups come in. They integrate more closely with Ethereum's infrastructure, helping retain value within the ecosystem. This new method of building rollups could bring additional value to Ethereum and $ETH .

What are Based rollups?
Based rollups, or L1-sequenced rollups, are a type of rollup where the base L1 chain, like Ethereum, manages transaction sequencing directly.

Unlike traditional rollups that rely on their own sequencers, based rollups tap into the security, liveness, and decentralization of the L1 by outsourcing transaction sequencing to the L1’s infrastructure. This infrastructure includes proposers, searchers, builders, and other actors who permissionlessly include based rollup blocks in L1 blocks.

How do Based rollups work?
Based rollups use the L1 for consensus, data availability, and settlement layers, while handling execution independently. For instance, when Ethereum is the base L1, the key layers of based rollups are as follows:

1. Execution Layer — Managed by the rollup itself, where transactions are executed off-chain.

2. Consensus Layer — Relies on Ethereum validators to sequence transactions.

3. Data Availability Layer — Uses Ethereum as the DA layer to ensure that transaction data is available for validation by anyone.

4. Settlement Layer — Also part of Ethereum, where final transaction states of the rollup are recorded.

Based rollups use Ethereum for everything from ordering transactions to settling them. While this approach may not seem radically different from traditional rollups, it fundamentally shifts how sequencing is handled. Instead of relying solely on separate sequencers, based rollups leverage Ethereum itself for transaction sequencing.

Why based rollups?
As Justin Drake outlined in his original post, based rollups are worth your attention for several reasons:

1. Inherited Liveness and Decentralization — One of the key advantages of based rollups is their ability to inherit the liveness guarantees of the base L1 chain. As long as the L1 is operational, so is the rollup.

2. Economic Alignment with L1 — The economic model of based rollups creates a mutually beneficial relationship with the L1. Priority fees and MEV from these rollups naturally flows to the L1. This synergy doesn’t just add value to the base layer, it also boosts the legitimacy and brand awareness of the rollups themselves, thanks to Ethereum’s community.

3. Cost Efficiency — Outsourcing sequencing to Ethereum reduces development costs, accelerates time to market, and lowers user costs (especially at scale) for based rollups.

However, based rollups have trade-offs. They sacrifice some profitability by relying on Ethereum for sequencing, missing out on priority fees and MEV. Additionally, they contend with Ethereum's inherent challenges, such as slow block times, which can cause latency issues.

There's a real debate that these changes might compromise the simplicity and security that initially made based rollups appealing.

Drift Protocol, a rising star in the Solana DeFi space, has secured a $25 million Series B funding round led by crypto venture firm Multicoin Capital. This significant investment follows Drift's series of strategic moves to capture a larger share of the diverse DeFi derivatives market and will fuel an ambitious expansion of its team.

Drift's recent launch of BET on DRIFT, a prediction market built on Solana ahead of the US elections, has garnered considerable attention. Within just one week of launch, Drift flipped PolyMarket in 24-hour volume on August 28th, 2024, signaling a strong user response and a potential shift in the prediction market landscape.

The platform's rapid growth, with $388 million in total value locked (TVL) and a series of successful product launches, has attracted significant investor interest. While details of the latest funding round remain unclear, it is believed to be a private token sale, given Drift's existing $DRIFT token launched in May 2024.

Multicoin Capital's Managing Partner, Kyle Samani, confirmed the private nature of the funding round in a tweet posted a few days before the official announcement. He expressed strong confidence in Drift's potential: "We have been analyzing DeFi derivatives pretty seriously since 2019-2020, and we believe that Drift Protocol is the best positioned protocol to capture that opportunity. We led multiple private rounds and have been buying on the public market since the token launched in May."

The Drift token $DRIFT has surged by 77% in the past 30 days, currently trading at.73 at press time.

Drift's Journey: From Seed to Series B and Beyond
Drift's journey to this point has been marked by steady growth and strategic fundraising. The platform raised $3 .8 million in a seed round in 2021, followed by a $23 .5 million Series A round in May 2023. This latest funding round brings Drift's total funding to an impressive $52 .5 million, positioning it for further expansion and innovation.

Fueling Growth: Doubling the Team
With this fresh injection of capital, Drift is set to embark on an aggressive growth trajectory. The company plans to double its headcount from 25 to 50 within the next year. This expansion will bolster Drift's capabilities across various fronts, including engineering, product development, marketing, and business development.

With fresh capital and a growing user base, Drift is well-positioned to execute its ambitious roadmap. The platform plans to expand its suite of financial services tools, enhance its cross-margin functionality, and further develop its prediction market offerings.

On September 20, Reown, formerly WalletConnect, announced the launch of its Solana Appkit, a comprehensive developer tooling platform designed to simplify Solana ecosystem development.

The move promises to amplify Solana connectivity, leveraging a range of essential services that aim to expand the ecosystem. Best known for its expansive EVM network, Reown facilitates over 15M monthly wallet connections across 100+ blockchains.

Solana’s inclusion in Reown’s substantial list of supported chains comes following the network’s meteoric growth throughout 2024. Reown CEO Jess Houlgrave contends that the Solana Appkit’s launch could spearhead a new wave of applications on the network:

"The Solana ecosystem has stood out since its inception in 2020. Solana instantly drew interest from developers and teams throughout the industry, resulting in some of the biggest and most recognizable projects to date. The launch of the Solana AppKit will act as a catalyst for further growth, the AppKit simplifies building apps and ensures the best experience for end-users. We're excited to see what teams can do with these new tools". - Jess Houlgrave, Reown CEO.

🇺🇸 US lawmakers Tom Emmer and Patrick McHenry ask Gary Gensler to clarify the agency's position on crypto airdrops.

“As you know, the philosophy of crypto and blockchain technology is based on decentralization.”

"Yet the SEC's regulatory approach appears to make the goal of decentralization impossible to achieve."

“By prohibiting Americans from participating in aurdrops, the SEC is preventing American cryptocurrency users from fully realizing the benefits of blockchain technology.”

“The SEC’s approach during your tenure has only ensured that the next iteration of the internet will not be designed by Americans or with American values, which is not in the best interests of our constituents.”

DriftProtocol introduced the GAS (Grants, Attention, and Support) Ecosystem Program aimed at accelerating the growth of Drift's ecosystem.

Meta Will Use Public Data From Adults In The Uk For Artificial Intelligence Training

Meta will start using publicly shared content from adult users in the UK on Facebook and Instagram to train its artificial intelligence models. The company will assess publicly available information, such as posts, comments, photos, and descriptions, from users on both platforms.

Meta emphasized that its AI is designed to reflect diverse global communities and plans to expand its AI initiatives to more countries and languages later this year. The company clarified that it does not use data from accounts of individuals under 18 in the UK.

In July, Meta halted AI assistant deployments in the EU following an order from the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) due to data privacy concerns. Meta claims it uses Facebook and Instagram user data with their consent and offers an option to opt out.

UK-based adults on Facebook and Instagram will receive in-app notifications detailing Meta's data usage practices and offering an option to object to the use of their data for AI training. Meta stated that it will accept all existing and new objection forms.

The DPC, responsible for enforcing the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), is intensifying its oversight. On September 12, it launched a cross-border investigation into Google Ireland Limited to determine if it complies with EU data protection laws in developing its AI models.

The investigation will focus on the use of EU citizens' personal data in training Google’s advanced language model, Pathways Language Model 2 (PaLM2), introduced on May 10, 2023.

The DPC also investigated the social media platform X and concluded the investigation after X agreed to meet the necessary compliance standards. On September 4, X agreed to stop using personal data of EU and European Economic Area (EEA) users to train its AI chatbot, Grok.

Donald Trump's odds for winning the 2024 presidential election dropped to 49% during the 🇺🇸US presidential debate.

Via: BET on DRIFT

Crypto markets have suffered noticeable pullbacks following September 10’s highly anticipated presidential debate.

In the wake of self-proclaimed ‘Crypto President’ Donald Trump’s performance, scales have tipped in favor of Kamala Harris, with prediction markets illustrating renewed support for the Democrats.

Crypto Markets Tumble as Republican Confidence Wanes
The presidential debate had a resounding effect on the digital asset market. Following the event, $SOL price has dropped 5.1%, sliding from September 10’s high of $137 .9 to currently trade hands at $130 .84.

Beyond asset prices, CoinMarketCap’s Crypto Fear & Greed Index also dropped from a neutral 46.72 to a fearful ranking of 31.6.

The crypto market’s slide is expected to be due to the wider industry’s assumption that a Trump presidency will be favorable for the blockchain industry.

Commentators argue that Trump’s pro-crypto stance will greatly benefit the sector, with many analysts proposing that the approval of a spot SOL ETF hinges on a Republican victory. Meanwhile, some Solana community members expressed that regardless of who emerges triumphant in November, it will make little difference.

Over the past four years, the Biden administration has loomed large over the crypto industry. Gary Gensler and the S.E.C. (Securities and Exchanges Commission) have been widely criticized by the crypto community for their regulation-by-enforcement approach, which has seen the agency hand out a litany of lawsuits to crypto businesses throughout its time in office.

Volume Spikes on Drift Protocol’s Prediction Market
While Trump and Harris clashed heads on camera, traders took their chance to hit the prediction markets. Drift Protocol’s BET platform, a marketplace enabling users to trade the outcomes of real-world events, enjoyed an impressive surge of trading volume during the debate.

According to Dune Analytics, Drift Protocol’s BET protocol witnessed over $851k in daily trading volume. While falling short of market leader PolyMarket’s $14M daily volume, BET’s dramatic volume spike represented a 1,287% increase over the previous day’s trading.

According to BET’s dedicated market, Trump’s chances of winning the presidential election dropped from 54.2% to 49.5% since the debate began.

$TREMP Down, $KAMA Up
Finally, the landmark debate sent waves of volatility through Solana’s PolitiFi memecoin economy.

Unfortunately for $TREMP holders, crypto markets rejected the Presidential hopeful’s debate performance. $TREMP price crumbled under increased selling pressure, plunging 28% from.19 to currently exchange hands at.135, based on Step Finance data.

Meanwhile, the Kamala Harris-inspired $KAMA saw renewed support. $KAMA surged over 34%, rising from 0.007 to currently trade at.0094. Despite $KAMA’s superior performance, the memecoin still has a smaller market cap ($8.3M) than its PolitiFi rival $TREMP ($14.2M).

The debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris was heated to say the least...

The summary 👇

What initially got the most attention was that Kamala Harris appeared to have worn "earpiece" earrings so that people could whisper "punchlines" to her.

Tensions over Ukraine:
Harris accuses Trump of literally wanting to abandon Ukraine, acknowledges that Russia has not threatened to use nuclear weapons but advocates a rapid end to the conflict.

Disagreements over foreign policy:
Trump fears global escalation, Harris defends international engagement

Lively exchanges on the economy:
Harris criticizes the tariffs that Trump wants to impose (especially on Chinese products), calling them a "sales tax" on the middle class, and blames it for current inflation.

Heated debate on immigration:
Trump alarmist accuses Biden-Harris administration of letting in "dangerous" immigrants while Kamala Harris accuses him of dividing the nation.

Abortion Clash:
Harris defends abortion rights, Trump calls for return of decision to states.

Post debate:
Taylor Swift, "America's Sweetheart," has announced her support for Kamala Harris. The potential impact on "young people" is massive

Market sentiment can flip at any moment - be prepared 🤝

U.S. presidential nominee Donald Trump's odds of winning the 2024 elections are now at 51.1% on BET on DRIFT

We are 180 days into a correction since we made an ATH in Bitcoin and market sentiment is worse than when BTC was at 15K.

Ethereum has lost nearly $250 billion in market cap over the summer, even with ETFs coming to market.

And what happened?

> Massive exits and sales by Grayscale.
> Massive MT.GOX distributions.
> Mass distributions from the United States.
> Germany selling +50,000 BTC.

And what is to come?

> US interest rate cuts.
> Gradual increase in global liquidity.
> United States elections.
> FTX Refunds (+$16B).

And all this with stablecoins reaching all-time highs.

Is this the end? Are we all going to die?

I don't believe it.

For me nothing has changed.

Nobody said the bull market was going to be easy.

The best, for me, is yet to come.

You already know what happened next, the times when the feeling was as shattered and terrifying as the one we are experiencing now.

The difficult moments are what separate babies with poop on their butts from legends.

Everyone is very pro, everyone is very cocky, very gangster and very brave until it is time to buy the dip when at all hours they say that we are going to visit lower areas and everyone is terrified and with their balls in their throat.

We've all heard "If you come down to X area I'm going to put my house in your house" then they come down and shit their pants and don't buy.

It seems like a meme, but it is not.

There is something that will never change.

> The vast majority of people will sell out of fear.
> The vast majority of people will buy out of euphoria.

And it is certainly the fastest way to lose money in this market.

Sorry, I didn't make up the rules of the game.

The road will be long and there will be monsters and corpses along the way, just try not to make it yours.

The bull market is not over.

They just want to steal your magic internet coins so that when they spend billions on marketing, they can buy them back at an exorbitant price.

Nothing has changed.

Patience, conviction, buy the dip & chill 🏝️

WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST OBSTACLES TO DePIN GROWTH??
In a recent appearance at ETHToronto, Frank Mathis highlights the next steps for DePIN’s future.

GenesysGo founder Frank Mathis is no stranger to the highs and lows of crypto’s thriving DePIN sector.

Drawing on his years of experience, Mathis joined other DePIN thought leaders at ETHToronto, including Helium COO Scott Sigel, to discuss the future of the sector.

“If DePIN solves that, DePIN is inevitable”
Like many passionate crypto community members, DePIN advocates staunchly argue that DePIN is inevitable. Speaking to hundreds of crypto enthusiasts at ETHToronto, Mathis offered a refreshing point of view.

The GenesysGo founder argues that value creation for contributors is one of the most integral aspects of running successful DePIN networks. Mathis highlighted that, while DePIN promises to reward contributors as decentralized software scales, “it’s shocking how much of that is running on AWS and Google Cloud.”

For example, over 50% of Ethereum node operators are hosted on AWS, Hetzner, and OVH servers.

Reiterating the importance of wealth creation for contributors, Mathis contends “what DePIN really is, is an attempt to take one of the most centralized layers of the stack and decentralize that amongst the people such that they start to participate in the growth and success of these models.”

GenesysGo’s ShdwDrive is one such example. The decentralized storage solution empowers users to earn $SHDW tokens by providing unused mobile storage to a distributed network, directly generating income from a device that lives in their pocket.

Reflecting the ideal DePIN model proposed by Mathis, network contributors benefit from the growth and success of the platform. The GenesysGo founder reinforced this notion, opining “DePIN is only as inevitable as the value that participants in the network get from it… if DePIN solves that, DePIN is inevitable.”

POOR PERFORMANCE “ONE OF THE BIGGEST FAILINGS OF DePIN”
On paper, the benefits of DePINs are obvious. However, in practice, these platforms often sacrifice performance and scalability in favor of decentralization. While this aids in value creation for contributors and increases security, it actually hamstrings performance and growth.

DePIN is often considered the natural evolution of the sharing economy, which delivered iconic businesses like Uber and Airbnb.

Drawing parallels between the pearls of the sharing economy and emerging DePIN projects, Mathis illustrated that “Uber became highly successful, not just because you’re able to share in pieces of things you don’t use everyday.. but because it worked well, it was fast, it was easy to use.”

Mathis argues that for DePIN projects to truly take off, they need to rival the performance standards set by centralized industry leaders. Referencing his experience with GenesysGo, the founder posits “in our case, our first principle [is] decentralized storage needs to be as fast, as secure, as stable, and perform every bit as well as a traditional Web2 cloud service.”

ABSTRACTION IS KEY
The Web3 user experience has long been considered one of the industry’s biggest obstacles to adoption. The complexities of wallet management and security have discouraged newcomers to space for over a decade, and continue to repel potential users today.

Mathis insists that abstracting the end-user experience away from blockchain technology is key to the success of the industry. Reinforcing this belief, the founder affirms “Your end user shouldn’t know that they’re interacting with Web3”

Looking towards the future, Mathis considers DePIN regulation will present a significant obstacle to the sector’s growth. However, instead of taking a chagrined approach to future regulatory concerns, the GenesysGo founder suggests that DePIN projects need to take on some responsibility.

🚨 Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong introduces a verifier of onchain activity on the Base and ERC20 networks

After weeks of eager anticipation, Lavarage has finally launched its generous rewards program. Offering DeFi traders a more efficient way of navigating onchain markets, Lavarage adds a new dimension to permissionless margin trading by leveraging spot assets, rather than the synthetic perpetual assets used across the Solana ecosystem.

With the launch of Tephra, the protocol’s dynamic points program, Lavarage brings renewed enthusiasm to Solana’s margin markets and re-stokes the flames ahead of a future airdrop.

THE TEPHRA POINTS SYSTEM - MISSION 1 NOW LIVE
Rewarding dedicated traders and community members alike, the Tephra points system aims to provide fair opportunities for all ‘Lavanauts’. By using the Lavarage trading platform and engaging in community-building activities, Lavanauts earn Tephras, which will be directly correlated to an eventual airdrop.

Users earn Tephras every time they execute an action in the Lavarage platform. Whether you’re opening positions, paying interest on borrowed assets, or staking SOL for lstSOL (Lavarage’s native liquidi staking token), users are actively earning Tephras. The team has also hinted that users can boost Tephra generation by holding Lava Rock Alpha NFTs.

Profitable traders stand to generate even more rewards. Encouraging skilled traders to use the platform, points are also being distributed based on the profitability of individual trades. Making point generation accessible to those with smaller wallets, Tephras can also be earned through community-building activities.

Adding an additional layer of intrigue to the Tephra program, Lavarage proposes diversified missions. With each mission lasting two weeks, the Lavarage team will adapt rewards based on the protocol’s strategic goals. While this keeps the rewards program dynamic, it also works as a countermeasure against bots and airdrop farmers seeking to game the system.

Mission 1 is currently live. Lavarage users can easily track their Tephra points tally through the app. Lavarage’s earliest users and supporters can now verify rewards accumulated during the ‘OG Mission’.

WHAT IS LAVARAGE?
Designed to improve capital efficiency in DeFi trading and boasting a streamlined user experience, Lavarage offers a creative approach to margin trading on Solana. Unlike the network’s vast range of perpetual DEXes, Lavarage contracts use spot assets.

This means that the platform offers more accurate pricing and liquidity than perpetual markets and allows traders to buy and sell the underlying assets.

Lavarage usage has erupted in recent weeks. Since the end of June, the platform has facilitated over 5,000 spot-margin positions at an average leverage of 3x. Boasting over 500 assets, Lavarage has attracted over 1,000 unique users with a retention rate of over 60%.

Beyond trading, Lavarage also manages to provide generous yield to its liquidity providers. According to the platform, SOL stakers have earned over 40% APY through Lavarage since the protocol’s inception.

WHAT'S NEXT?
With the Tephra points program officially underway, the Lavarage team has hinted that the upcoming TGE “might not be too far off”.

Regardless, Tephra is expected to boost the platform’s growing user base and volume, helping Lavarage grow towards becoming a key player in Solana’s flourishing DeFi Landscape.

SolanaCompass an independent Solana validator clarified the recent FUD surrounding Solana staking, which exaggerated the amount of stake being deactivated.

FUD reports mistakenly included non-circulating stake from the Solana Foundation's stake management program and misinterpreted withdrawals as deactivations.

Actual deactivation by individual wallets was 639,966 SOL, while 924,013 SOL were activated, resulting in a net gain of 284,047 SOL.
