D. Crespy and co‐workers present block copolymer redox‐responsive nanocapsules. On page 2995, they explain how a functional payload is trapped inside the nanocapsule core, while another functional payload is encoded into the chemical structure of the block copolymer capsule shell via a disulfide bond. A cascade release of the two payloads can be triggered upon reduction.
