"From the point of view of a developer, right now there's a lot of friction. If you're an aspiring developer and you have a new application you want to launch, you have to pick: do I go to Arbitrum, do I go to Base or Blast, or which of these chains? Because a lot of the success of my application really depends on the success of that ecosystem. But in this sort of Based future, when everything's interoperable, it doesn't really matter. You get to launch your own chain, and there's no maintenance. You're not running your own centralized sequencer; it's being done by the Ethereum validators. And this allows you to compose with other rollups and capture your own congestion fees." Puffer Core Contributor Jason Vranek @jasnoodle on the benefits of UniFi for developers and app-chains. 🐡🕶️
