**Conduit: Infrastructure Platform for Optimism Rollups**

Conduit is a crypto infrastructure platform that simplifies deploying production-level applications on Optimism-based rollups. It allows developers to focus on building without worrying about scalability, reliability, or upgradability. DeFi protocols, gaming platforms, NFT projects, and on-chain providers can utilize Conduit to expand their applications.

### **Key Features**

1.  **Rollup-as-a-Service (RaaS):**
    
    *   Conduit collaborates with Optimism’s Superchain and Arbitrum’s Orbit to offer enterprise-level RaaS solutions.
        
    *   It supports over 30% of mainnet rollups and handles billions of requests daily.
        
    *   Conduit’s RaaS integrates with Optimism and Arbitrum stacks, offering seamless migration between modular layers like settlement and data availability.
        
2.  **RPC Keys:**
    
    *   Developers can use high-performance RPCs without running their own nodes.
        
    *   Conduit acts as a node provider, ensuring continuous network uptime with redundant infrastructure.
        
    *   Autoscaling RPCs adjust to transaction loads, and security measures protect node operations.
        
3.  **Monitoring and Dashboard:**
    
    *   The platform provides a dashboard for clients to track activities and monitor product performance.
        

Several Layer-2 networks, including Aevo, Ancient8, Lyra, Mode, and Parallel, utilize Conduit’s services.

### **Security Concerns**

A key concern involves the **"ConduitMultisig" wallet**, which controls upgrades for 12 Layer-2 projects built on Conduit’s RaaS. If this wallet were compromised, all associated projects could be severely impacted.

Conduit founder Andrew Huang addressed these concerns, explaining that the wallet currently requires 3/5 signatures for access and will soon transition to 5/7 for increased security. However, risks associated with multisig wallets remain, as shown in incidents like the PEPE memecoin case in August 2023.
