A.J. Warner of Offchain Labs, Ryan Wyatt of the Optimism Foundation, and Jill Gunter of Espresso Systems join The Rollup for a roundtable on the philosophical split between Arbitrum's Orbit and Optimism's Superchain approaches to rollup ecosystems. They debate licensing strategies, cross-chain interoperability, and how governance and ecosystem growth differ between the two camps. The conversation also considers how rollup clusters and interop design will shape Ethereum's long-term relationship with its layer 2s.
