Don't remind me again today

Yesterday, I revisited a technical sharing that talked about the Arch project. What they are doing is quite interesting - they can directly interact with Bitcoin's native language.



How exactly does it work? When you want to invoke a smart contract on BTC, Arch's validating nodes will run the contract logic in their own execution environment, and then generate the execution results and state updates.

What is the cleverest part?

Ha, this trick from Arch is indeed brilliant, directly using the native language of BTC. ----- Wait, the verification node runs its own logic? How is the degree of decentralization guaranteed? ----- To put it bluntly, it's just a play on sidechains opened on BTC, but the implementation idea is indeed novel. ----- It's quite interesting, as this can bypass the limitations of BTC script. ----- I don't understand why there is a need to mess with smart contracts on BTC, isn't Ethereum more appealing? ----- The core issue is still the trust model; the reliability of this verification mechanism is key. ----- This architecture feels a bit similar to Stacks. ----- The last sentence wasn't finished, are you trying to keep us in suspense? Haha.

Wait, isn’t this basically a virtual machine forcibly made on BTC?

Wait, isn't the Arch idea just opening up a new track on BTC? It feels a bit promising.

Oh, Arch's approach seems pretty good, but I'm not sure if the verification costs will skyrocket.

Wait, Arch runs smart contracts directly on BTC? Isn't this a disguised L2 solution? It feels a bit like a trap.

Wait, Arch is running smart contracts directly on BTC? How is that even possible? It sounds a bit far-fetched to me. Arch's approach is pretty aggressive, it's basically like giving Bitcoin a cheat code. Validator nodes run the logic themselves, but then what? How do they sync it back to the chain? I didn't catch the details. Honestly, I still have some doubts about the security of this kind of cross-chain interaction. Can you guys even code in BTC's native language? I'm a noob anyway, can't understand it. If this really works, it feels like the whole ecosystem is going to be turned upside down.
