Taiko’s Rollup Coaster #28 Explores Latest Ethereum Innovations
Taiko’s
bi-weekly
newsletter,
The
Rollup
Coaster,
continues
to
provide
in-depth
insights
into
the
evolving
landscape
of
Ethereum.
The
latest
edition,
authored
by
Taiko’s
researcher
Jünger,
covers
a
range
of
topics,
including
rollups,
zero-knowledge
proofs
(ZKPs),
based
sequencing/preconfirmations,
Trusted
Execution
Environments
(TEEs),
and
Miner
Extractable
Value
(MEV)/Proposer-Builder
Separation
(PBS).
Highlights
The
newsletter
highlights
the
completion
of
the
preconfirmation
demo
day,
showcasing
Layer
2
(L2)
preconfirmers
that
can
provide
preconfirmation
to
rollup
users
at
an
impressive
speed
of
20ms,
outpacing
centralized
sequencers.
