Layer-2 Adoption refers to the increasing utilization of scaling solutions built on top of existing blockchain networks, known as Layer 1 protocols. These solutions, such as rollups or sidechains, process transactions off the main chain to reduce congestion and lower fees. Increased Layer-2 adoption indicates a growing demand for more efficient and cost-effective blockchain interactions. It addresses the scalability limitations of base layers.
Context
Layer-2 Adoption is a central topic in discussions about improving blockchain scalability and user experience, particularly for networks like Ethereum. Debates often concern the security assumptions and decentralization trade-offs inherent in various Layer-2 technologies. Future developments will focus on further optimizing these solutions, enhancing their interoperability, and simplifying the user journey for interacting with Layer-2 networks.
