Vitalik's new article: We should continue to adhere to the L2 scaling route, but L2 needs to fulfill its commitments, such as contributing a certain revenue to support ETH.

Odaily Planet Daily News Vitalik published a new article today, outlining the scaling issues of Ethereum Layer 1, Layer 2, and future expansions. In the article, Vitalik mentioned that one possible shortcut to scaling is to abandon Layer 2 and complete all work through Layer 1 with higher gas limits, but this approach would undermine the advantages of Ethereum's current social structure, which is very effective in obtaining different forms of research, development, and ecosystem-building culture simultaneously. Therefore, we should persevere and continue to primarily scale through Layer 2, but we must ensure that Layer 2 fulfills its commitments. This means the following needs to be achieved: Layer 1 needs to accelerate the expansion of blobs; Layer 1 also needs to moderately scale the EVM and raise gas limits; Layer 2 needs to continue improving security; L2s and wallets need to accelerate improvements and standardize interoperability; Layer 2 deposit and withdrawal times need to become faster; as long as basic interoperability requirements are met, heterogeneous Layer 2s are not an issue; the economic model of ETH should be clarified, and it must be ensured that ETH continues to accumulate value even in a Layer 2-intensive world. Regarding the economic model of ETH, Vitalik also mentioned encouraging Layer 2 to support ETH by contributing a certain percentage of fees. This can be achieved by burning a portion of the fees, permanently staking, and donating the proceeds to public goods in the Ethereum ecosystem or other similar schemes.
