BrettVM in its current state leverages the Stack, the same technology powering Coinbase's Network, to offer an Ethereum Virtual Machine that utilizes as its native currency. As a layer 3 BrettVM settles to Base, a layer 2 network, via to process transactions. This enables a performant ecosystem with audited and battle tested code that simultaneously subscribes to Optimism's modular blockchain theory.
As BRETT is native to Base network, choosing to leverage Optimism comes with many benefits such as upgrades to the underlying tech stack keeping the network easily maintained and updated. Not only is it a natural alignment for BrettVM to be an OP chain that settles to Base, its own OP chain, there is also the potential to participate in Optimism's .
With modularity in mind there are growing options to explore for Data Availability. While relying on off chain data securely is a key component to any Optimistic rollup it can be costly to operate with direct call data to the settlement layer.
, offers attestations with off chain Data Sampling that can ensure uptime with economic incentives that aren't in place with other more cost effective but less neutral options. The abstraction for what would require trusted entities with direct incentives to act maliciously enables a secure & decentralized network with reduction in costs that make BrettVM suitable for on chain applications such as Gaming, Decentralized Finance/Social & more powered by BRETT that would otherwise be unfeasible.
Extending the ecosystem that BRETT has established on Base, BrettVM adds utility to the token to enable more use cases for holders to be involved. Not only is BrettVM beneficial for the BRETT community but also showcases the capabilities and adoption of Base & Optimism.
