Recently, a lot of discussion around the Layer 3 solutions has been gathering steam with some of the top industry players joining the debate. Last Sunday, Polygon Labs CEO Marc Boiron stated that Layer 3 solutions aren’t essential for scalability and fail to add much value to the Ethereum ecosystem. Now, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin also shares a similar view in this regard.
Vitalik Buterin stated that Layer 3 solutions do not inherently enhance throughput to a significant degree, but they can help mitigate certain fixed costs associated with batch publishing and deposits/withdrawals.
Buterin shared his previous blog post dating back to September 2022 that explains three different versions of Layer 3s and their importance within the Ethereum ecosystem. He noted:
Buterin further added that “there are other, potentially “lighter”, ways to get the same cost savings that you get from L3s”.
