Why Was Bedrock Needed?
Early blockchain scaling solutions were often built as complex, clunky software layers taped onto Ethereum (ETH). They worked, but they were expensive to maintain, diverged heavily from Ethereum’s native code, and suffered from high transaction fees (gas).
Optimism released the Bedrock upgrade to strip away this technical debt and create the cleanest, most efficient blueprint for building a Layer 2 rollup.@Bedrock
