Introduction to the Keystore Rollup - HackMD
At the intersection of scaling and account abstraction efforts on Ethereum, two of The Three Transitions, the Keystore Rollup may become one of the crucial infrastructures needed to support global-scale Ethereum. Recently, Vitalik’s original proposal for a minimal rollup dedicated for keystores has been iterated on by Base with a more formal specification. While the existing writing is detailed, it may not be easily understood by those less familiar with the cryptography at play. This post is an attempt to introduce the idea and fundamental logical blocks of a Keystore Rollup without involving the underlying cutting-edge cryptography required to implement it.
