When Ethereum starts taxing Layer2 solutions... suddenly Base doesn't look so independent anymore. The entire L2 ecosystem thrives on cheap transactions and minimal fees—imagine the shift if the main chain decides to take a cut. Would Layer2s still maintain their competitive edge, or would we see a massive reshuffling of where developers and users park their assets? This could redefine the whole scaling narrative. The autonomy of rollups might just be more fragile than we thought.

Damn, is ETH really going to wipe out L2s this time?

Ha, I’ve been saying all along that this whole L2 thing is pretty hollow—when real interests are at stake, the truth comes out immediately.

Uh... if L2s really get drained like this, what's the point of the whole ecosystem?

Base really survives on being cheap. If ETH ever decides to do the same, wouldn’t the entire L2 ecosystem have to reshuffle?
