Ethereum L2 refers to Layer 2 scaling solutions built atop the Ethereum blockchain to enhance its transaction throughput and reduce gas fees. These solutions process transactions off the main Ethereum chain and then periodically settle them on Layer 1. Examples include rollups and sidechains, which aim to improve network efficiency and user experience. They are critical for Ethereum’s long-term scalability and broader adoption.
