Blast is built on the principle that markets march towards efficiency. More specifically, liquidity flows to where it can get the highest yield. There are different types of yield. One type of yield is the risk-free interest rate (RFR). The most famous RFR is in the US economy. The Fed controls inflation via interest rates and you can access it via T-Bills. If you don’t beat these rates, you are losing money to inflation. Blast is an EVM-compatible, optimistic rollup that raises the baseline yield for users and developers without changing the experience crypto natives expect.
