Offchain Labs unveils BOLD protocol for permissionless validation across Arbitrum chains

Quick Take
- Offchain Labs introduced Bounded Liquidity Delay (BOLD), a new dispute protocol for optimistic rollup-based Layer 2 solutions.
- BOLD seeks to enable permissionless validation, a departure from the existing mechanisms in Arbitrum-based chains that employ permissioned validation.
The move towards permissionless validation highlights Offchain Labs' push for decentralization across Arbitrum chains.
