I don’t have much time, so this will be an oversimplified introduction to danksharding (featuring PBS + crLists). Danksharding turns Ethereum into a unified settlement and data availability layer. Neither settlement, nor data availability sampling, are new concepts. What is brilliant is unifying them, so to rollups it appears as one grand whole. All rollup proofs and data confirm in the same beacon block. We know how rollups work — it’s all about computation and data compression. Rollups need spac
