Layer 2

A structured breakdown of Solana (SOL)’s issuance mechanism, inflation model, staking incentives, and fee burn design, building a clear framework for understanding SOL’s economic model and long term supply dynamics.

This article provides a systematic analysis of Solana (SOL), covering its technical architecture, Proof of History mechanism, network structure, token economics, and ecosystem. It explains how this high-performance public blockchain operates and the design logic behind it.

This article provides a structured analysis of the Solana (SOL) ecosystem, including its DeFi, NFT, on-chain gaming, and infrastructure layers, helping readers build a comprehensive understanding of its use cases and network architecture.

This article analyzes the fundamental differences between Solana (SOL) and Ethereum across architecture design, consensus mechanisms, scaling paths, and node structure, building a clear and reusable framework for comparing public blockchains.

Vitalik's proposal for an "L2 reset" marks a critical directional correction in Ethereum's Rollup roadmap. This article provides a systematic breakdown of core concepts such as the "trust spectrum," "native Rollup precompiles," and "synchronous composability," explaining how Ethereum aims to redefine the relationship between Layer1 and Layer2 while acknowledging the economic realities and differentiated development of L2 solutions. This is not a defense of old narratives but a reality-based reassessment — one that tests whether Ethereum can still maintain its capacity for technological and governance self-correction.

As the launch of Base's native token is imminent, leading ecosystem project Zora has made several strategic moves, notably introducing a livestream feature that has generated market attention. This article examines Zora from four perspectives: product innovation, tokenomics, ecosystem status, and potential risks. It analyzes how Zora is evolving from an NFT platform to the primary platform for the creator economy on Base, and discusses the important role it may play in the forthcoming Base token distribution.

Outlier Ventures proposed a BASE tokenomics framework aimed at reshaping the Layer 2 revenue model. Through a quote currency mechanism and an adaptive emission system, the BASE token is designed to become the core liquidity asset of the Base ecosystem and could potentially generate over $4 billion in value for Coinbase — marking a new paradigm for L2 economics.

An in-depth analysis of the present and future of Ethereum Layer2: from the rise of leading projects like Arbitrum and Optimism to the many overlooked chains among 150+ L2s. Explore scaling demands, ecosystem divergence, and regulatory challenges, while examining how innovations like EIP-4844 and shared sequencers are set to shape the future of Layer2.

At BaseCamp 2025, Base introduced its initial exploration of a network token and announced the launch of a cross-chain bridge with Solana along with several developer tools, marking another step toward becoming a global onchain economic hub.

A comprehensive analysis of how Arbitrum, starting with $350 million, has strategically built out its RWA ecosystem and expanded into on-chain bonds, stablecoins, and cross-border financial markets, exploring the next wave of wealth opportunities.

As the Linea airdrop approaches, its economic model and ETH-first mechanism are drawing strong interest from the market. Leveraging a dual deflationary engine, native staking, and the reinvestment of its ecosystem fund, Linea is striving to become a value-enhancing extension for Ethereum, redefining the dynamics between L2 and L1.

Fogo is redefining the design paradigm of high-performance blockchains by introducing a unified client architecture, multi-region consensus mechanism, and a performance-based validator incentive system—all aimed at addressing the core demands of on-chain institutional finance for high speed and stability. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of its architectural logic, incentive model, and market positioning.

This article provides a detailed analysis of Zircuit's technical architecture, including its construction based on the OP Stack Codebase, Sequencer-level security enhancements, Modular Proof systems, and innovations such as AI integration. The article also explores the background of Zircuit's collaboration with Eigenlayer, revealing its differentiated competitive advantages in the Layer 2 space.

Although L2 plays an important role in innovation and economic advancement, over-reliance on L2 may weaken the network effect of Ethereum Layer 1 (L1). The article proposes the concept of ultrasonic Rollup, which is a native Rollup design that combines data availability, execution, and ordering, aiming to enhance rather than weaken Ethereum's network effect.

Although Layer 2 (L2) plays a crucial role in innovation and economic progress, excessive reliance on L2 may undermine the network effects of Ethereum's Layer 1 (L1). The article proposes the concept of Supersonic Rollup, a native Rollup design that combines data availability, execution, and sequencing, aiming to enhance rather than weaken Ethereum's network effects.
