Odaily Planet Daily reports that vitalik.eth posted on the X platform stating that recent discussions about the ongoing role of L2 in the Ethereum ecosystem have increased. Due to the much slower-than-expected progress of L2 entering Phase 2, and the fact that L1 itself is expanding, it is anticipated that Gas limits will significantly increase by 2026. This means that the original vision of L2 as Ethereum’s “brand sharding” is no longer applicable, and new approaches are needed.
Vitalik Buterin pointed out that L1 no longer needs L2 as a brand sharding, and L2 cannot or is unwilling to meet the attributes required for true brand sharding. He suggests that L2 should identify value-added points beyond “scaling,” such as privacy, efficiency for specific applications, extreme scalability, non-financial application design, ultra-low latency, and built-in oracles. When handling ETH or other Ethereum assets, L2 should at least reach Phase 1 and support maximum interoperability with Ethereum.
Additionally, Vitalik Buterin stated that over the past few months, he has become more convinced of the value of native Rollup precompiles, especially after having the ZK-EVM proof needed to scale L1. This precompile will make trustless EVM verification without a security committee feasible. He believes research should focus on how to design this precompile so that when L2 includes “EVM and other components,” it can verify the EVM part. This will make secure, robust, trustless interoperability with Ethereum easier and enable synchronous composability.
