Ankr Integrates Innovative Espresso Benefits With Rollup as a Service

Ankr is thrilled to announce the integration of Espresso Systems with our industry-leading Rollups as a Service (RaaS) product. This exciting development empowers new Layer 2 (L2) rollup chains built on Ankr to leverage Espresso's coordination capabilities for sequencing, unlocking a multitude of benefits for interoperability, efficiency, and more.

Integration with Espresso was an important step forward for Ankr, which is committed to providing the most advanced RaaS offering.

What Is Espresso? Coordination & Interoperability

• Espresso Systems provides a coordination layer consisting of a consensus system and a marketplace that allows rollups to share sequencer nodes for faster, cheaper, and more interoperable transactions.

• Coordination: Instead of each rollup running its own sequencer, Espresso allows them to opt into the possibility of sharing a sequencer for a given timeslot via a marketplace. This can be more efficient, cost-effective, and value-accretive.

• Fast Finality: Their unique HotShot consensus system ensures transactions are finalized quickly and securely.

• Enhanced Interoperability: By connecting rollups in this marketplace, Espresso makes it easier for them to communicate with each other. This is crucial for a future where different blockchains work together seamlessly.
