Espresso Analysis: How to Solve the Fragmentation and Centralization Sorting Dilemma of Rollups



This article introduces how Espresso Systems addresses the issues of Rollup fragmentation and centralized sorting through a decentralized shared sequencer. Its Espresso Network serves as the confirmation layer, providing fast finality and cross-chain composability for multiple L2s, and supports Presto one-click cross-chain transactions. The project was founded by Ben Fisch, Jill Gunter, Benedikt Bünz, and Charles Lu in 2022, and has completed two funding rounds totaling $60 million (including Andreessen Horowitz and Coinbase Ventures). It is currently integrated with over 20 chains, including ApeChain, RARI Chain, Celo, Cartesi, and Polygon AggLayer. The article also notes that the project faces uncertainties such as competition in the shared sequencing space and the willingness of large Rollups to connect. Its roadmap aims to achieve sub-second finality by 2026, and it is currently advancing ecosystem deployment through testnets and developer incentives. Read the full article:
