Rhea & Remus

BY: ANIL KUMAR, SATTVIK KANSAL

Rome is built for rollups, RaaS providers, app chains, searchers, bundlers, Ethereum developers, and Solana developers. In this blog post, we share how an OP Stack rollup integrates with Rome. We introduce Rhea and Remus, which enable core functionality of Rome. The integration uses Solana as the state machine and data availability (a.k.a. data publication) layer.

Rome: Solana as shared sequencer

BY: ANIL KUMAR, SATTVIK KANSAL

Liquidity fragmentation has been the main objection to the Ethereum rollup-centric roadmap, amongst other problems such as weakest-link security and interoperability. This is mainly because sequencers, where users submit transactions, are isolated for each rollup.

We are jazzed to announce our partnership with Polygon Labs, a key step toward realizing our shared vision of creating a unified liquidity layer combined with seamless cross-chain interoperability between integrated ecosystems. This collaboration opens up the design space for builders and innovators everywhere.

Solana as based sequencing layer for L2s

BY: SATTVIK, IRFAN, ANIL, DOMOTHY

We explore the possibility of Ethereum L2s using the validators of a different Layer 1 blockchain (Solana) as the sequencer, while otherwise using Ethereum L1 for everything else: settlement, data availability, deposits/withdrawals, and forced inclusion. Additionally, we present a proof-of-concept implementation: Rome's Nexus that uses Solana for sequencing.
