⧍ A fast and maximally-secure message bridge specially designed for optimistic rollups. ✨ Today we launch its first stage: the Devnet Launch! ⧍ Read more about the principles that guided the Vea design in the thread below, and check our blog post for a deep dive! 🧵

It was a privilege for us to participate in the roundtable hosted by the Cross-Chain Interoperability Alliance, with our very own Lead Developer @JayBuidl representing us! 🌉 For key takeaways and insightful discussions from this event, explore @hashialliance's thread below:
1/n 🎉 A huge thank you to everyone who joined us at the CCIA Roundtable! The event was a remarkable gathering of leading cross-chain builders, focused on the future of blockchain interoperability and security. Here is a thread with the main insights. 🧵 👇🏻

L3s are now easy to deploy, but they will need bridges! @vea_eth is ready for it. 🫡
Replying to @JayBuidl
To experiment further with the @kleros_io arbitration protocol, we could add @vea_eth to optimistically bridge the ruling messages from L3 to L2s or L1s, where an arbitrable contract needs it 🚀 The end. teapawt.net/vea_eth/status/1663646…

Great thread by @shotaronowhere on the @arbitrum sequencer outage, and how L2 tx are processed. Important to understand how @vea_eth works!
maybe you heard Arbitrum's sequencer went offline 💀 Here's how bad it was, a 2 hours outage followed by a 1 hour outage. Would you be surprised if this wasn't the first time? 😲 Let's see how many times has this happened before . . .👇

As a result of 24 hour censorship, any dapp with an optimistic mechanism on arbitrum requires a minimum latency of 24 hours to avoid challenger censorship We designed @vea_eth, a fast, permissionless optimistic message bridge from Arbitrum with this in mind.

Great article by @koeppelmann! We are doing our part. 🫡
“The best [token bridge] security is achieved by using a combination of standards. This way, if one standard experiences a bug or a security weakness, the other standards can still protect the network,” writes Gnosis co-founder @koeppelmann #Opinion. trib.al/mIvWQvj

How Vea compares to other bridges?
Good question. Hop is designed as a token bridge first, does not currently support arbitrary messages and its contracts are upgradable by gov. It has a gov token whereas Vea doesn’t because there is nothing to govern: its contracts are not owned and not upgradable.

Bridges come in many shapes and forms, many allow for collusion, censorship, fast upgrades, privileged roles for an owner multisig. That’s why we are building @vea_eth, a security-first optimistically-verified message bridge.

16/ Kleros is the first user of Vea, running a watcher to check for fraud and make claims about the Merkle root's state. 👁️⃤ Help us improve cross-chain communication and unlock new possibilities for the Ethereum ecosystem. 💪 Let the bridging begin! t.me/veabridge
