On this episode of Rehash, we’re speaking with Eshita, Head of Strategy at Astria, about the current state of crypto infra, why developer tooling is lagging, and we get to the bottom of what shared sequencers are.

After spending a couple of years researching the crypto ecosystem, Eshita started to feel like a bystander and wanted to become more of an active participant in the ecosystem, so she recently joined Astria to help build out their shared sequencer network.

Astria allows many rollups to share a single decentralized network of sequencers, which increases censorship resistance and enables faster block confirmations, all while allowing each rollup to maintain their own sovereignty.

We then zoom out a bit and look at crypto infrastructure as a whole, and Eshita shares what she believes to be some of the most important pieces in the infra space right now as well as areas where she hopes to see more development and innovation moving forward.
