지난 주 비트코인 가격은 주간으로 4.55%(10일 0시 기준) 하락했습니다. 주된 이유는 도널드 트럼프 미국 대통령이 촉발시킨 글로벌 ‘관세 전쟁’으로 인한 시장 불안감입니다. 관세로 인한 가격 변동이 처음 나왔던 것은 지난 3일이었죠. 미국이 캐나다와 멕시코, 중국을 상대로 고율의 관세를 매기겠다고 선언하면서 주말 사이 시장이 크게 흔들렸습니다. 비트코인 가격은 9만2000달러선까지 급락했지요. 실시간으로 집계된 파생상품 거래소 등의 청산 물량은 약 20억달러 규모였지만, 바이빗 CEO는 관세 이슈로 청산된 금액이 80억달러에서 100억달러 사이에 다다를 것이라고 말했습니다. 트럼프 대통령은 1기 정부 때는 중국을 상대로 관세 전쟁을 한 차례 치렀던 경험이 있습니다. 하지만 그때도 우방은 관세... source: https://kr.beincrypto.com/base-news/98221/

According to Cointelegraph, Anurag Arjun, co-founder of Avail and the Polygon layer-2 scaling solution, highlighted the challenges posed by current chain abstraction techniques in the crypto ecosystem. Arjun pointed out that each blockchain base layer operates with its own security assumptions, complicating interoperability. He noted that these layers have distinct validators and crypto-economic security, necessitating the creation of infrastructure like bidirectional light clients, which he identified as a significant bottleneck. Bridging between chains involves a complex, multi-step communication process that incurs high costs and security risks, further fragmenting users and capital. Arjun emphasized that previous efforts to achieve interoperability primarily focused on bridging liquidity between blockchain networks, allowing users to transfer liquidity across chains. However, this approach has led to increased fragmentation and cybersecurity vulnerabilities, resulting in several high-profile hacks, including the Wormhole Bridge hack on February 2, 2022, which resulted in a $321 million loss. Chain abstraction aims to simplify user experiences and interfaces by concealing technical blockchain aspects from end users. The ultimate goal is to provide a seamless and unified blockchain experience, enabling users to interact across chains through a single interface. An example of this is the NEAR Protocol's Chain Signatures feature, which allows users to sign transactions across multiple blockchain networks from their NEAR accounts using a single wallet. This solution has been praised for its simplicity and is considered a potential future base layer for blockchain interactions.
