Show Notes
In this episode, host Ria sits down with the co-founders of Starkware, Eli Ben-Sasson and Uri Kolodny to discuss how the team is leveraging STARKs, or validity proofs, to unlock a magnitude increase in scalability. We discuss:
- The differences between Starkex and Starknet and how the two will converge
- Enabling functions and applications that cannot be built on monolithic layer 1s
- Why data availability is important to zk rollups and the trade offs of different approaches
- Simultaneously solving for computational integrity and inclusive accountability
