- Vitalik Buterin shared a blog post about the array of Layer 2s and bridges.
- The importance of independent Layer 1 blockchains like Polygon was dissected.
- Buterin provided an overview of why the network will become heterogeneous as time progresses.
Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain, has recently dissected the intricacies of Layer 2s (L2s) and bridges, along with the issues that come with them. In an October 31 blog post titled “Different Types of Layer 2s,” he underscored the kaleidoscope of L2 mechanisms that have surfaced to help bring greater capacity, lower costs, and increased security to the ecosystem.

Buterin noted in his analysis a few well-reputed EVM rollups—like Arbitrum, StarkNet, Optimism, Scroll, Taiko, and Kakarot—that have employed the segments of zkEVM rollups. Moreover, he talked about some successful independent L1 blockchains like Polygon, which also built its own EVM rollup, Polygon zkEVM, to supplement its sidechain solution.
Furthermore, Buterin believes that some projects that exist as independent…
