Survival is the ability to swim in strange water
Guest: Sydney Huang (Twitter: @0xSydney) Host: Rex (Twitter: @LogarithmicRex) The Ethereum ecosystem has been predominantly centered around the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) since its inception in 2014. However, after nine years, there is a growing interest in exploring alternative approaches. Solana, a blockchain emphasizing speed and efficiency, has gained traction with its Solana Virtual Machine (SVM), offering a different environment for innovation. The Eclipse Foundation, represented by today’s guest Sydney Huang, challenges the conventional thinking around Ethereum Layer 2 solutions. They are actively working on developing the first Ethereum Layer 2 that utilizes the Solana Virtual Machine. The conversation explores the motivations and intricacies behind Eclipse's initiative, challenging the prevailing notion of Ethereum-like computing environments for Layer 2 solutions.
