A few years ago being an Ethereum L2 kind of came with this strong ETH-aligned vibe like users were expected to be all-in on Ethereum ideals too.
But these days, with projects like Abstract, it doesn’t really feel that way anymore. Just being an ETH L2 doesn’t automatically give off that old-school image.
The best way to build an L2 is to lean into the L1's offerings (security, censorship resistance, proofs, data avail...) more, and reduce your logic to just being a sequencer and a prover (if based, just a prover) over the core execution.
This is the combination of trust minimisation and efficiency that the 2010s enterprise blockchain crew wanted, but was never able to achieve. Now, with Ethereum L2s, you can achieve it. And we've already seen successful examples of the L1's features protecting users' rights if something on the L2 goes wrong.
