Combining Ethereum's Reach and Solana's Speed, Eclipse w/ Neel Somani

Unlayered - Un pódcast de Sal Qadir and Dave Apsimon

Categorías:

Neel Somani is the Founder & CEO of Eclipse and has an ambitious vision to build Ethereum’s fastest Layer 2 blockchain by tapping into Solana’s Virtual Machine (SVM) as the execution environment. We start our discussion by deconstructing the landscape of L2s in order to better understand where Eclipse fits in and why Neel views Eclipse’s approach as preferable. We also dig into Neel’s conscious design decision to tap into ETH’s massive network effects while simultaneously leveraging Solana’s high-throughput execution environment. Eclipse’s unique position amongst L2s may ultimately prove to be mutually beneficial to both the Ethereum and Solana ecosystems, and we unpack why that may be the case throughout the interview.-        - Time Stamps 0:00 - How did you get to this point 3:21 - Who are Eclipse’s stakeholders 8:37 - Comparison to OP Stack 14:03 - Rollup fundamentals 19:29 - Tradeoffs from losing EVM comparability 22:22 - Key unlock of local fee markets 24:21 - Eclipse positioning across ecosystems 27:14 - Can Eth retain network effects 30:51 - Does Eclipse destroy Eth’s value accrual 33:40 - Would Eclipse ever turn away from Eth 34:50 - Do L2s need tokens 36:42 - Go-To-Market strategy 39:44 - Do L2s need to decentralise their sequencers 43:10 - Who wins the L1 wars 46:40 - How will people use crypto products 49:20 - Which verticals are most bullish 53:32 - Crypto and AI 55:49 - Eclipse roadmap -        - Podcast Resources Follow Sal: https://twitter.com/Sal_The_Bull Follow Dave: https://twitter.com/SolBeachBum Follow Unlayered: https://twitter.com/UnlayeredPod Subscribe on Spotify, Apple, or Google: https://unlayered.io/ Clips on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UnlayeredPod -        - Episode Resources Follow Neel : https://twitter.com/NeelSalami Follow Eclipse : https://twitter.com/EclipseFND Eclipse website : https://eclipse.builders Eclipse blog : https://mirror.xyz/eclipsemainnet.eth Neel’s personal blog : https://www.neelsomani.com/blog/
