ELI5 – L3S

While L2s’ lower gas fees / increased throughput have enabled them to become the
hub of onchain activity & account for a sizable portion of the ETH-based
economy, they may be constrained by pressure to maintain decentralization &
alignment with ETH L1. Builders that want to [1] experiment and customize their
apps, and [2] align with an L2 for distribution, are now opting to build L3s –
which are application-chains that settle to an underlying L2. This document is
focused on building a shared understanding of L3s.

UNDERSTANDING THE EIGENLAYER AVS LANDSCAPE

EigenLayer* is a protocol built on Ethereum that introduces restaking, a new
primitive in crypto-economic security that has emerged as a leading narrative
within the Ethereum community. Restaking via EigenLayer enables developers to
leverage Ethereum's existing economic security infrastructure (i.e., validator
set and staked ETH) to bootstrap new Actively Validated Services (AVS). Compared
to how traditional cloud platforms and SaaS solutions were transformative to
web2 development, we believe the emergence of EigenLayer and its burgeoning
ecosystem of AVSs unlocks a "verifiable cloud" paradigm for web3. As restaking
and shared security models evolve, their impact on blockchain ecosystems will
become increasingly evident, driven by growing demand from stakers and
developers seeking to unlock new opportunities onchain.

STATE OF WALLETS - PART 2: SMART ACCOUNTS

"Smart Accounts" (or “Smart Wallets”) – which we define as smart contract
wallets (SCW) with “Account Abstraction” features – have become a top-of-mind
conversation among crypto developers. Account Abstraction (“AA”) launched in the
EVM ecosystem in Q1-2023 and is beginning to see an uptick in adoption. This
document explains the value proposition, adoption inflection, and implications
for the broader ecosystem.

STATE OF WALLETS - PART 1: WALLET TECHNOLOGIES

The two most important technologies created in crypto/web3 are the concept of
blockspace and cryptographic keys/wallets. Wallet technologies have now expanded
beyond self-custodial wallets, and we believe within the next 5 years wallets
will change dramatically – marking crypto’s “iPhone” moment. In this part, we
will cover the various wallet technologies. In the future parts, we will cover
related trends like how data and identifiers will be attached to wallets.

STATE OF BRIDGING

Bridges have emerged as core infrastructure for protocols, service providers,
and users in accessing crypto use-cases. This report is meant to capture the
current state of the bridging landscape, the future trends in bridging, and the
implications for the broader crypto ecosystem.

UNDERSTANDING THE ZERO-KNOWLEDGE LANDSCAPE

This report analyzes the emerging Zero-Knowledge (ZK) landscape and its growing
impact on unsolved problems in web3 (today) related to blockchain scalability,
privacy preservation, and trustless interoperability.
