This article delves into the current state of AA adoption, exploring its implementation across both Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (L2) solutions.

L2 network nodes consist of several parts, with the sequencer being the most critical. However, Rollup sequencers currently face centralization issues. Based Rollup represents a significant shift in Ethereum Layer 2 scaling by delegating Rollup sequencing directly to Layer 1 proposers. Utilizing the proposer-builder separation design, Layer 1 performs all sequencing roles for Rollup. Additionally, it extends MEV, allowing L2 searchers to bundle transactions and send them to L2 builders, who are also L1 searchers. These complete L2 blocks then become part of L1 blocks, ultimately processed by L1 builders and the Ethereum mainnet.

Can Sui emerge as a dark horse in the L1 battle? This article delves into the background of Sui’s launch, its technological innovations, and its ecological development, along with the investment risks pertaining to $SUI.

Nibiru Chain is a new L1 blockchain adopting PoS consensus, integrating derivatives and spot trading functionalities, and aiming to become the next-generation hub for DeFi.

This article is a comprehensive guide to VeChainThor, detailing its various features and characteristics as an enterprise-grade L1 distributed IoT platform. It covers its applications in areas such as anti-counterfeiting, supply chain management, asset management, and customer experience.

As an L1 DePIN public blockchain, Peaq Network is designed specifically for decentralized physical infrastructure (DePIN) and machine RWA (real-world assets). Its modular DePIN features facilitate the construction of various decentralized physical infrastructure projects. This article will delve into the Peaq project and its potential to meet the diverse needs of DePIN projects and applications.

It is dedicated to providing financial support to core contributors within the Ethereum ecosystem through native token incentives. This ensures the vibrant development and continuous innovation of the Ethereum network. With its unique donation and funding allocation mechanisms, it serves as a bridge connecting funds with contributors.

This article outlines the trade-offs between Rollup and integration, L1 and L2, and application-specific chains and general-purpose chains.

This article reviews the history of L1 and Ethereum's dominance in the blockchain realm, comparing key indicators like user count, developer activity, and liquidity across various L1 blockchains to explore if any have the potential to surpass Ethereum. It analyzes each platform's strengths and challenges, attempting to predict factors that will influence these networks' future growth and market acceptance.

This article discusses 15 Layer-1 cryptocurrency projects to watch in 2024, highlighting their importance in ensuring the security, consensus, and decentralization of the blockchain ecosystem. While Layer-2 solutions improve performance, they still rely on the security and decentralization provided by Layer-1 networks.

In this article, Vitalik directly addresses a specific technical aspect of a subproblem: how to more easily read from L2 to L1, from L1 to L2, or from one L2 to another L2. Solving this issue is crucial for achieving asset/key separation architecture, but it also has valuable use cases in other areas, most notably optimizing reliable cross-L2 calls, including use cases such as moving assets between L1 and L2.

Monad is a highly scalable Layer 1 smart contract platform with a rapidly growing ecosystem. Currently, over 80 protocols and dApps are planning to build on it, with expectations to reach 150 to 200 by the time the mainnet launches. Key partners of Monad include LayerZero and Pyth Network, which will enhance its cross-chain interoperability and provide reliable pricing data. Monad's roadmap includes its establishment in February 2022, securing $19 million in funding by February 2023, releasing documentation in September of the same year, planning to launch a testnet in the second half of 2024, and aiming to start the mainnet by late 2024 or early 2025. Technologically, Monad combines parallel execution with EVM compatibility, positioning it to potentially compete with existing platforms like Solana in terms of technical performance. Although Solana leads in speed and scalability, Monad's EVM compatibility offers an additional advantage. Moreover, Monad's technology may enable it to surpass other platforms lik

Ethereum's scaling strategy has evolved from sharding and layer 2 protocols to a rollup-centric approach. The current roadmap proposes a division of labor between L1 and L2: L1 serves as a robust foundation layer, while L2 is responsible for ecosystem expansion. Recent achievements include EIP-4844 blobs increasing L1 data bandwidth, and multiple EVM rollups reaching stage 1. Future goals include achieving 100,000+ TPS, maintaining L1 decentralization, ensuring some L2s inherit Ethereum's core properties, and maximizing interoperability between L2s. Key research areas include data availability sampling, data compression, and cross-L2 interoperability.

The recent surge in Sei has drawn market attention, and this article explores the development of the Sei Network ecosystem.

Ethereum operates on the principle that every node stores and executes every transaction submitted by users. To scale the entire network, Ethereum has adopted the Rollup solution. However, currently, the sequencers of Rollups face centralization issues.
