1:55:59 - 2:02:52 (06:53)

Vitalik Buterin discusses how rollup technology, which allows more transactions to fit into a single Ethereum block by compressing them, might provide a better scaling solution than sharding. He also highlights the challenges and advantages that come with implementing complex contracts on blockchain while still maintaining the integrity of the system.

Summary

This podcast discusses the possibility of using blockchain to generate proofs for arbitrary computation, which can be validated in logarithmic or constant time. This would allow anyone to handle distributed computing problems on any server, without having to trust the output but instead, trusting the deterministic proof.
