Breakdown06 May 2024Vistara: decentralized hypervisor and hardware layer for DePIN and AIExplains Vistara's pivot from RaaS to a decentralized hypervisor network offering programmable CPU, GPU, RAM and storage, with components Hypercore, Unikernel, MicroVM, Spacecores, Hardware as Code and Vimana. Discloses being an angel investor in the pre-seed.Breakdown02 Oct 2023Vistara: one-click app-specific and sovereign rollups with modular componentsBreaks down Vistara's rollup-as-a-service where builders pick execution, sequencer, DA, interop and proving from a UI. Initially sovereign optimistic rollups on Celestia with Dymension settlement, with ZK via SHARP or Bonsai planned.Other04 Jan 2024Modular thesis reading list: Celestia, EigenLayer and rollups 2022 to 2024Chronological index of the author's modular research since June 2022: Celestia and data availability sampling, EigenDA versus Celestia, sovereign rollups, RaaS, shared sequencing, plus two Castle Capital reports on modularity.

11 Nov 2023NEAR goes modular: zkWASM prover, NEAR DA and EigenLayer-based fast finalityAnalyzes NEAR announcements: a zkWASM prover for Polygon CDK, a cheap DA layer and a fast finality layer with EigenLayer, arguing it positions NEAR for modular rollup season.BreakdownL1/L2Ethereum

11 Aug 2023Vistara: one-click modular rollup deployment frameworkBreakdown of Vistara, a framework to deploy customizable rollups in under a minute by picking execution, sequencer, DA, interop and prover from a menu. Covers supported components, blueprints and the Vimana node architecture.BreakdownL1/L2Tooling

25 May 2023App-specific rollups: VM in a container versus app as state machineDistinguishes app-specific rollups that run an app inside a dedicated VM (Vistara, Caldera) from those where the app is its own state machine (Stackr). Concludes neither is better: the first is easier and general, the second allows more customization and performance.ThesisL1/L2Ethereum
