Vanilla Based Sequencing is a design for decentralised sequencing mechanism for rollups led by the L1 proposers. The design is geared towards addressing practical problems of the rollups – addressing low initial participation by sequencers, enabling user experience features on par with centralised sequencing designs and suggesting mission-aligned revenue sources for the various actors.
The goals
- Provide equal or better UX than centralized sequencing in preconfirmation time, guarantees, and transaction cost;
- Enable all participants, including the rollup protocol, to generate revenue;
- Ensure composability with other rollups without relying on a centralized sequencing layer;
- Base liveness guarantees on Ethereum L1;
- Eliminate the need for trust in a single party, ensuring a diverse set of sequencers to prevent censorship;
- Addresses cold-start problem of original based sequencing through naturally higher incentives for early participants.
