New Bitcoin L2s claim to scale Bitcoin’s throughput with minimal trust assumptions. But when you dive deeper, the trust models for these scaling solutions aren’t any different than federated (and custodial) ecash application modules. On this panel, a rollup curious host will quiz the panelists on the trust assumptions related to different ecash implementations to learn if building rollup-like systems is even worth it.
Bitcoin L2s are all the talk of Bitcoin Twitter, but do these new projects actually inherit Bitcoin security, and do they really scale Bitcoin? In this talk, we'll work through a proposed risk analysis framework for Bitcoin scaling solutions and how the ecosystem should think about L2 definitions and security models.
