In this week's episode of 0xResearch, John Adler joins us to discuss how Fuel is building the premier execution layer for the modular future. We start with the key differences between rollups and modular execution and why state growth (not call data) is what rollups should optimize. We then explore Fuel's unique UTXO model, the Sway programming language and Fuel's tradeoffs. Warning: this discussion gets technical, but this episode is loaded with insights you won't want to miss!
