DESIGNER BLOCKSPACE: THE FUTURE OF EXECUTION ENVIRONMENTS

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Though the data availability cost has been alleviated through Ethereum's blobs and special-purpose protocols like Celestia, inefficient computation and state access remain bottlenecks. There are multiple paths to improving execution performance, including parallelization, state expiry or statelessness, and sharding. Each L1 and L2's decisions about these improvements will impact the design of their execution layer, the value proposition of blockspace, and the competitive moat of its chain.
