KEY TAKEAWAYS
- AltLayer and Astar Network propose integrating a fast-finality layer for Soneium rollups to enhance transaction speed.
- The initiative uses MACH AVS, powered by EigenLayer, to provide fast confirmation and crypto-economic security for rollup transactions.
- The proposal aims to reduce settlement delays on Ethereum, benefiting high-latency applications and the creator economy.
- Community feedback is encouraged to improve scalability, decentralization, and security within the Soneium ecosystem.
AltLayer and Astar Network have announced the launch of a proposal to integrate a fast-finality layer for Soneium rollups. This initiative aims to enhance the transaction finality speed on Soneium using MACH AVS (Actively Validated Service), powered by EigenLayer. The proposal is now live and seeks community feedback.
The integration of MACH AVS is designed to provide fast confirmation for rollup transactions, offering crypto-economic security guarantees. This system supports both ZK and optimistic rollups and is compatible with various proof systems and runtimes. The proposal outlines the use of EigenLayer’s restaking mechanism, leveraging restaked ETH and bridged ASTR tokens to secure the network.
Currently, users deploying on Soneium’s OP Stack rollup experience either soft finality from its sequencer or hard finality when transactions settle on Ethereum. The settlement period on Ethereum can take approximately 13 minutes, with a withdrawal period of around seven days. The fast-finality layer aims to address these delays, benefiting high-latency applications and the creator economy.
The proposal also discusses the role of Astar within the Soneium ecosystem, highlighting the potential for creating a token sink and uniting various stakeholders, including token holders, operators, and the broader community. The detailed case for using MACH AVS is available for review, and feedback is encouraged to enhance scalability, decentralization, and security for Soneium.
