According to official news, the Ethereum expansion project AltLayer has released the concept of Restaked Rollups, which aims to solve rollups-related problems by utilizing EigenLayer’s re-pledge mechanism.
Restaked rollups are a set of vertically integrated Active Validation Services, or AVS, created on demand for a given rollup. Together, these AVS provide three key services for application rollups, namely decentralized ordering, rollup state correctness verification, and faster finality, which in turn contribute to rollup decentralization, better security, and Interoperability across rollups while leveraging Ethereum’s trust network through re-staking. Restaked rollups are designed using three modular components, namely:
- VITAL (AVS for decentralized verification of rollup status);
- MACH (AVS for fast finality);
- SQUAD (AVS for decentralized sorting).
