AltLayer launches an API and SDK suite for programmatic access to custom Rollups

ChainCatcher News: The Ethereum scaling project AltLayer has released an API and SDK suite for programmatically accessing custom Rollups, allowing developers to dynamically create, monitor, and terminate Rollups based on application needs through a range of endpoints.

It is reported that during the Rollup creation process, key parameters can be specified, such as the number of sequencers, Gas settings, virtual machine runtime, custom genesis state, and more. AltLayer stated that users can also use the API to launch a restaking tier through the Ethereum restaking protocol EigenLayer.

According to the crypto data platform RootData, in July 2022, AltLayer completed a $7.2 million seed round financing, led by Polychain Capital, Jump Crypto, and Breyer Capital, with participation from Polkadot founder Gavin Wood, former Coinbase CTO and former a16z partner Balaji Srinivasan, Circle co-founder Sean Neville, and co-founders of Synthetix and Bodhi Ventures Kain Warwick and Jordan Momtazi. In August 2023, Binance Labs announced that it had invested in AltLayer.
