Let's discuss the 𝗘𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆.

What @EspressoSys actually is :

Espresso is a purpose built base layer for rollups not another L2 clone.
Think of it as a shared infrastructure that multiple rollups can plug into so they stop acting like isolated islands.

• It provides shared sequencing, confirmations, and optional data availability services so rollups can stay sovereign but interoperate tightly.

• The core problem it solves:
Today many rollups run their own sequencers and data stacks.

That creates fragmentation: Slow cross chain messages, duplicated MEV extraction opportunities, different trust models, and fragile bridges.

• Espresso’s idea is to give rollups a common, decentralized sequencing and confirmation layer so transactions across different rollups can be ordered and confirmed in a coordinated, neutral way. In short: less friction, better composability, and fewer single points of failure.

° How it works : The main pieces (high level):

- Shared Sequencer / Confirmation Layer:

A network of nodes runs a consensus protocol that agrees on transaction order commitments for many rollups.
Rollups can reuse that ordering and confirmation instead of running their own centralized sequencer.

This gives faster, more neutral confirmations and makes cross rollup calls easier.

In my next tweet, I will explain about share about hotshot consensus ☕

Stay tuned.
