Securing Ethereum Blockchain
39:23 - 43:57 (04:33)
This episode discusses the process of securing Ethereum blockchain by sandboxing code and replacing system calls with calls to the hypervisor, which allows for safe execution of smart contracts.

Summary
The Ethereum blockchain allows for decentralized applications to run on its network through smart contracts, which are self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement between buyer and seller written into lines of code. The utilization of smart contracts makes decentralized computing a reality, but the reliance on computing power and gas fees for transactions also presents challenges.

The process of sandboxing in layer two calls for restricting certain sys calls that write to the Ethereum blockchain and replacing them with calls into the hypervisor.

Summary
The process of sandboxing in layer two calls for restricting certain sys calls that write to the Ethereum blockchain and replacing them with calls into the hypervisor. This enables the addition of restricted calls, making bytecode functioning possible in Ethereum's Layer Two.
