As you may know, this year in the modular space has been characterized by the rise of modular DA solutions bringing in extremely low costs to txs on rollups. We call this “the modular big bang” where the beginning of the modular expansion begins. Today, we’re diving into the next modular DA solution to launch: Avail. Stemming from Polygon roots, this team is set to launch their mainnet very, very soon. While DA is the first objective on their roadmap, Avail understands the second and third order consequences of the modular expansion: Fragmentation of liquidity, users, and chains. So, they have set out to unify the modular space and push for a more connected and less fragmented future. This is where Avail Nexus comes into play, offering a coordination layer that binds independent rollups through proof aggregation and ordering guarantees supported by the security backbone of Avail Fusion. In essence, Avail’s trio of offerings—Avail DA, Avail Nexus, and Avail Fusion—are about laying down a solid, interoperable foundation for the upcoming modular expansion. Learn more about it in today’s Modular March presentation.
