.@celestia acquires Sovereign, likely to become the biggest competitor to OP Stack and Arbitrum Orbit. You might not know @sovereignxyz, but you’ve definitely used the cross-chain bridge @RelayProtocol. Relay Chain is built on the Sovereign SDK tech stack and serves as the flagship production-grade example of Sovereign’s capabilities. Celestia’s intention behind acquiring Sovereign is crystal clear—aiming to grab a slice of the chain infrastructure race. Choosing to make this acquisition at such a delicate timing, it’s hard to say it wasn’t influenced by the explosive success of Robinhood Chain, which @arbitrum has been profiting from.
