Ethereum devs and L2 leaders go all in on based and native rollups
Some Ethereum layer 2s would be forgoing hundreds of millions of dollars obtained from fees to make Ethereum more connected at the base layer.
Executives from leading Ethereum layer 2s have said they’re willing to make Ethereum more unified by implementing “based” and “native” rollups, which they say could improve security while making the network less fragmented.
The head of Ethereum layer 2 Base, Jesse Pollak, said on a Jan. 25 call with Ethereum founders and developers that based rollups are “both a flexible and powerful tool that we’re going to be able to use for Base to make it more connected to Ethereum and increase the security guarantees that it provides.”
Optimism Foundation Director Ben Jones added that base rollups would improve the collaboration between Ethereum’s base layer and layer 2s.
