A blockchain layer represents a distinct architectural component within a blockchain network, designed for specific functions. Layer 1 constitutes the foundational protocol, managing core operations such as transaction validation and consensus. Layer 2 solutions are built upon Layer 1 to improve scalability and transaction throughput without altering the underlying security. These layers collaborate to support the overall functionality and performance of decentralized applications.
Context
The current discourse surrounding blockchain layers centers on optimizing scalability and interoperability across different networks. A key discussion involves the effectiveness of various Layer 2 solutions, such as rollups and sidechains, in reducing transaction costs and increasing processing speeds. Future advancements will likely involve more seamless integration between layers and the emergence of Layer 3 protocols for specialized application logic.
