On February 3, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin tweeted: “Now that Ethereum’s Layer 1 (L1) has scaled significantly and its gas limit has risen sharply, the original vision of ‘brand-based sharding’ for Layer 2 (L2) is no longer necessary. L2s cannot fully deliver the intended features of ‘brand-based sharding,’ and some projects may even stay in Stage 1 indefinitely to meet customer regulatory requirements. Thus, L2s should be repositioned: instead of just chasing scalability, they should offer unique additional features—like privacy-focused virtual machines, application-specific efficiency, maximum scalability, non-financial use cases (social, identity, AI), low latency, or built-in oracles.” Best practices for L2s include: upholding at least Stage 1 standards (otherwise, they’re essentially independent L1s with bridges) and prioritizing interoperability with Ethereum as much as possible. Additionally, exploring integration with native rollup precompiles (ZK-EVM verification)
