This blog series explores the evolution of Proposer-Builder Separation (PBS) within Ethereum and how Radius brings a new perspective to PBS in the Layer 2 (L2) ecosystem through its Blockspace Network. PBS has become a key concept for improving block production efficiency and decentralization in Ethereum. The article first looks at PBS’s development in Layer 1 (L1) Ethereum, then shifts focus to how Radius aims to optimize L2 revenue through the Blockspace Network, contributing to the broader...

We're excited to announce our partnership with Avail, the unification layer, to tackle the challenges of fragmentation of liquidity and the silos in the rollup landscape. Radius enhances the rollup interoperability experience, ensuring decentralization and enabling synchronous composability across multiple rollups. Together with Avail, we are pushing the boundaries of interoperability and unification, creating a powerful synergy to deliver a seamless, unified experience for cross-rollup ...

We're partnering with Swell and Symbiotic to expand support for BTC shared security in rollups. This collaboration enables rollups to be secured with restaked BTC, unlocking new revenues through the blockspace network—developed by Radius.Leveraging Swell BTC LRT for Economic SecuritySwell has introduced swBTC, a liquid restaking token (LRT) for BTC, allowing users to restake BTC to secure Networks on Symbiotic and other restaking platforms while receiving swBTC, which remains liquid for ...

Radius launches Loggia Testnet, our third testnet with Radius AVS built on Eigenlayer. This testnet is designed to ensure sequencing liveness and block safety required for decentralized sequencing in rollups.IntroductionDecentralization is the destination for rollups, yet it remains one of the most complex challenges to overcome. It extends far beyond simply distributing power across network participants, involving a myriad of factors and functions that demand carefully designed systems and i...

Understand the importance of pursuing a user-centric model in rollups and the role of Radius in that vision.IntroductionThe basics of growth for any successful product or service are long-term users. In an ideal world, you wouldn’t have to worry about users churning away. The reality. Today’s users might not be your users tomorrow. This challenge extends to rollups and decentralized applications within blockchain ecosystems, particularly in environments where users have the ease and flexibili...

Our research collaboration with RISE Chain focuses on user protection and cost efficiency within the based rollup ecosystem.RISE Chain: A Parallelized EVM Layer 2RISE is a next-generation Layer 2. True to Ethereum’s vision, RISE reaches unprecedented scalability while maintaining security and decentralization. With technology optimizations such as parallel EVM, continuous execution and layered MPT; RISE is on track to surpass 100,000 transactions per second and 1 Gigagas per second, enabling ...

For rollup developers seeking decentralized sequencing and fast finality, Radius AVS and Nuffle Fast Finality Layer (NFFL) provide a powerful, unified solution. This article introduces how Radius AVS and NFFL, both AVSs (Actively Validated Services) using Eigenlayer’s restaking protocol for economic security, work together to improve decentralization and speed up transaction settlement in rollups—two critical components for scaling rollups.What is Radius AVS?Radius AVS is a decentralized sequ...

Bringing enhanced security, fast finality, and seamless interoperability to Starknet L3 appchains.OverviewWe’re excited to kick off our official partnership with Starknet, contributing to building a secure, scalable, and decentralized rollup ecosystem. Starknet aims to build an L3 appchain ecosystem that inherits the security of its settlement layer, allowing decentralized applications to optimize custom scalability through fractal scaling. Together, we will work to advance our shared vision ...

Practical Verifiable Delay Encryption (PVDE) and Single Key Delay Encryption (SKDE) are cryptographic algorithms behind encrypted mempoolsTL;DRIn December 2022, we introduced Practical Verifiable Delay Encryption (PVDE) as a means to address censorship and MEV in rollups. This blog post delves into our latest delay encryption innovation, Single Key Delay Encryption (SKDE), proposed in April 2024. Both methods form the basis of how Radius addresses censorship and MEV within shared sequencers t...
