– It has been over three years since Vitalik put pen-to-paper voicing “a rollup-centric ethereum roadmap.” While there have been immense changes in the interim, the vision expressed aged like fine wine as the Ethereum community continued down this path. The launch of the beacon chain, the merge, withdrawals, and the imminent proto-danksharding fork embody the engineering, research, and coordination excellence of the individuals and teams contributing to the protocol. As 2024 sets in, however, there is more noise than ever. We feel it is worth reviving the “rollup-centric roadmap” with an updated worldview; modern problems may necessitate novel solutions.

Why rainbow?We intend to convey that the architecture below is appropriate to offer services provided by a wide spectrum of participants, such as professional operators, solo home stakers, or passive capital providers.Additionally, the spectrum 11 may remind the reader of eigenvalues, while we intend for this proposal to partially enshrine a structure similar to re-staking.

The aim of this article is to delve into the factors underpinning Ethereum’s long standing dominance in the DeFi realm and to examine how Solana has made significant strides in recent times, though whether this can be sustained remains uncertain.

According to data from IntoTheBlock shows that the amount of Ethereum supply staked in the past week reached 25%, with a large portion flowing into re-staking protocols.

According to CoinShares CSO Meltem Demirors, the narrative surrounding Ethereum has been hindered by the emergence of alternative layer-1 blockchains, making it less likely for crypto newcomers to choose Ethereum as their entry point into the digital asset ecosystem. Demirors believes that Ethereum's complicated scaling roadmap and lack of a strong narrative may be contributing factors. While the Ethereum community is strong, it lacks the die-hard brand loyalty displayed by Bitcoin maximalists. Demirors questions whether Ethereum can maintain market share as more layer-1 blockchains with faster, cheaper, and more intuitive user experiences emerge.
