Introduction to Modular Rollup‑as‑a‑Service (RaaS) Frameworks
Blockchain
Technology
Modular rollups transform blockchain scalability by separating execution, settlement, and data availability into distinct layers. This course introduces the concept of Rollup‑as‑a‑Service (RaaS), which allows developers and enterprises to deploy custom rollups without building infrastructure from scratch. With real‑world examples and a focus on 2025‑era frameworks, the course moves from foundational concepts to practical deployment and future trends.
About the Course
This course is designed to help learners understand the architecture, components, and ecosystem of modular rollups, with a specific focus on RaaS platforms. It covers the technical stack, compares leading providers, and walks through the deployment of a rollup using no‑code dashboards. The final module explores upcoming innovations such as shared sequencers, restaking networks, and cross‑rollup interoperability, preparing learners for both current and emerging industry practices.
What You Will Learn
Explain the difference between monolithic and modular blockchain architectures.
Understand the components of a modular rollup stack and their roles.
Compare major RaaS providers based on features, frameworks, and deployment options.
Deploy a rollup using a no‑code RaaS platform and configure its parameters.
Anticipate future developments in modular rollups, including enterprise adoption and interoperability trends.
Gate Exchange's educational platform covers a wide range of topics, including blockchain, popular projects, trading, finance, and more. It aims to provide those interested in the Web3 industry with the most comprehensive information possible to improve their knowledge.
This course provides a detailed exploration of cryptocurrency staking, covering its fundamentals, mechanisms, benefits, and risks. Staking is an essential component of blockchain networks, enabling participants to secure transactions, validate blocks, and earn passive income. With the increasing adoption of Proof-of-Stake (PoS) and its variants, understanding staking has become crucial for investors, developers, and blockchain enthusiasts.
Blockchains are powerful but limited by their isolation from the outside world. Smart contracts can only process on-chain data, yet most real-world applications, from finance and insurance to gaming and logistics, depend on external information. Programmable oracle networks solve this problem by securely delivering and processing off-chain data for use on-chain. They extend blockchain functionality, enabling decentralized applications to interact with markets, APIs, sensors, and even other blockchains in a trust-minimized way.
Celestia represents a fundamental redesign of blockchain architecture through its modular approach. Instead of requiring every blockchain to handle execution, settlement, consensus, and data availability within a single system, Celestia separates these functions into specialized layers. This allows developers to create sovereign and application-specific blockchains that outsource data availability and consensus to Celestia while retaining full control over their execution environments.
Stablecoins are a cornerstone of modern crypto ecosystems, offering price stability in volatile markets. But behind their apparent stability lies a complex system of technical, financial, and operational safeguards. This course provides a comprehensive understanding of the risks stablecoins face, especially depegging, and how protocols, developers, and risk teams design systems to defend against them. From analyzing reserve structures to building automated alert systems, and from real-world incident responses to future-proofing strategies, this course equips learners with the knowledge to evaluate and contribute to resilient stablecoin ecosystems.
