Yakovenko: “There should be a meta blockchain. Post data anywhere, Ethereum, celestia, Solana, and use a specific rule to merge data from all the chains into a single ordering. This would actually allow the meta chain to use cheapest currently available DA offer.

Simple way to do this would be for the tx to reference the latest block headers from the potential DA layers. So MetaTX posted to Solana would included the last observed block form eth and celestia. This would mean it is guaranteed to be ordered after eth and celestia txs.”
