During Financial Cryptography, we talked to a lot of people irl, and it was common for people to have some initial questions about the difference between World Supercomputer and L2 Rollup (or Modular Blockchain).
The main difference between modular blockchain (including L2 Rollup) and world computer architecture lies in their purpose:
- Modular Blockchain: Designed for creating a new blockchain by selecting modules (consensus, DA, settlement, and execution) to put together into a modular blockchain.
- World Computer: Designed to establish a global decentralized computer/network by combining networks (base layer blockchain, storage network, computation network) into a world computer.
