Episode Summary

In this episode of The Unstoppable Podcast, we’re building on our last two episodes about blockchain scaling.

Episode Notes

In the last two installments of this series, we talked about the problems facing blockchain projects when it comes to scaling to a global level. We talked about gas prices, transaction fees, and some of the solutions currently being tried.

In this episode, we’re diving a little deeper into some of the current state-of-the-art solutions to blockchain scaling challenges. Today we’re talking about Plasma, optimistic roll-ups, ZK roll-ups, and Validium.

We cover the pros and cons of each and talk about some common topics like whether or not to use on-chain cryptographic verification and on-chain data availability.
