What is the difference between L1, L2 and Modular→ The Evolution of Blockchains
L1: The foundation layer the main highways like @ethereum, @solana, @0xPolygon, @avalancheavax.
→ They handle everything security, data, and execution. Powerful, but can get congested when traffic spikes.
L2: The speed lanes built on top of L1s for scale. Think @arbitrum, @optimismFND, @BuildOnBase, @zksync.
→ They process transactions faster and cheaper, then settle back to L1 for security.
Modular: The next frontier specialized chains like @CelestiaOrg, @eigenlayer, @dymension.
→ Each handles a piece of the puzzle: execution, data, or consensus making the whole system more flexible and scalable.
Different architectures, same mission:
Faster. Safer. Smarter blockchains!
