The concept of shared security has been around since the early days of Bitcoin when other chains were secured by Bitcoin miners through merge mining. Since then shared security models such as sidechains and rollups have become central to many ecosystems. This summit brings together experts across different ecosystems to explore new and emerging shared security models, ideas, and technologies. We seek to bring together leading researchers, builders, and investors to discuss shared security at ETH Denver.
