This should be a wake up call. @IBCProtocol needs to act fast to support rollup interoperability. Why are we even building a protocol if itโ€™s not used outside @cosmos ? L1 <> L1 was the only form of interop in 2020/ early 2021 but not anymore

In reality, we should really separate the "inbox" of the rollup smart contracts, and it should act a single entry point for dropping blobs into the rollup. All bridges, trusted authority or validating, should use the same inbox to issue assets on / send messages to the rollup.

This is a common misconception about IBC and the IBC client definition. IBC clients can be defined as arbitrary verification logic. This means that a rollup pre confirmation AVS can be an IBC client. IBC has had modular security from day one.

Polymer solves the interop fragmentation problem by making IBC network expansion permissionless and adaptable to any VM or tech stack. IBC expansion will no longer be limited to requiring a native integration of ibc-go or ibc-rs. Polymer == modular expansion of IBC.

The main side effect of Modular Expansion is fragmentation. Different VMs, different gas tokens, different tech stacks. Rarely IBC compatible. To connect everything, we need a universal interop solution that anyone can deploy + adapt to any tech stack. This is @Hyperlane_xyz .
