The L2 war is in full swing. Over 134 layer 2s have already been launched, but what about Ethereum, which forms the foundation? It still struggles with slow finality, exorbitant gas fees, and even faces structural limitations like the single sequencer model.

Ironically, whether there are a hundred or a thousand L2s, the core issue is that they all end up sharing the same bottleneck. The competition for scalability is fierce, yet the base layer remains unchanged? It feels like something’s not adding up. The real breakthrough might come from redesigning the base layer itself.
