Shared sequencer networks and atomic composability are emerging as core innovations in modular blockchain ecosystems. They address fundamental challenges caused by the proliferation of rollups, particularly the fragmentation of liquidity and the loss of synchronous transaction ordering that previously defined monolithic chains. This course introduces these concepts from first principles and explores their role in enabling scalable, secure, and composable multi-rollup environments.
This course provides an in-depth exploration of how shared sequencer networks function, why they are essential in a rollup-centric blockchain future, and how atomic composability can restore seamless cross-rollup interactions. The five modules progress logically from foundational concepts to cutting-edge innovations, combining theoretical insights with real-world project updates from networks such as Astria, Espresso Systems, and Radius.
