Ethereum’s scaling story is hitting limits—with rollups fragmenting users, liquidity, and developer experience. In this episode, Vivi sits down with Orest Tarasiuk (CTO & co-founder of T1 Protocol, ex-Scroll) to break down how “real-time proving” could finally deliver the speed, security, and seamless composability Ethereum needs.Highlights:
- What real-time proving means for Ethereum and why it matters now
- How T1 Protocol blends TEEs, ZK proofs, and crypto-economic security for “zero-delay” cross-rollup actions
- Why rollup fragmentation isn’t just technical—it’s a user experience roadblock
- The tension between idealism and pragmatism in building for Web3
- Orest’s advice for founders (plus the human story behind the tech)
Favorite Quotes:
- “We don’t just rely on one layer of trust—T1 combines TEEs, ZK, and crypto-economic security for real-time finality.”
- “Real-time proving restores Ethereum’s original vision—Lego blocks you can actually build with.”
