“打破整個社交結構”：以太坊基金會面臨限制2層網絡的壓力

以太坊社區的一部分正在向以太坊基金會施加壓力，要求做出可能“破壞智能合同網絡的整個社會結構”的決定

A portion of the Ethereum community is pressuring the Ethereum Foundation to make decisions that may “break the entire social fabric” of the smart contract network by restricting Ethereum's layer-2 (L2) networks, Polygon co-founder Sandeep Nailwal said.

Polygon聯合創始人Sandeep Nailwal表示，以太坊社區的一部分正向以太坊基金會施加壓力，要求他們決定通過限制以太坊的第2層（L2）網絡來“破壞智能合同網絡的整個社會結構”。

Speaking during a March 28 episode of Cointelegraph's Chain Reaction show on X, the Polygon founder said that he has only seen this type of pressure and anti-L2 rhetoric during the current market cycle amid suppressed price action for Ether (ETH).

在3月28日的CoIntelegraph鏈反應顯示X上的一集中，Polygon創始人說，在當前市場週期中，他只看到了這種壓力和反L2言論，而Ether（ETH）的價格動作受到抑制。

“Everybody understands that if Ethereum doesn't survive, the layer-2s won't survive,” Nailwal said, adding:

Nailwal說：“每個人都知道，如果以太坊無法生存，那麼第2層將無法生存。”

The Polygon co-founder praised Vitalik Buterin's leadership and his more active role in the Ethereum Foundation, saying he is the biggest force in keeping the ecosystem cohesive.

Polygon聯合創始人稱讚Vitalik Buterin的領導能力以及他在以太坊基金會中更加積極的角色，稱他是保持生態系統凝聚力的最大力量。

Nailwal characterized Buterin as the “DNA" of the network that has attracted many talented developers over the years who are building layers on top of the Ethereum base layer.

Nailwal將Buterin描述為網絡的“ DNA”，多年來吸引了許多有才華的開發人員，他們在以太坊基層的基礎上建造層。

Settlement layers vs execution layers

和解層與執行層

According to Nailwal, the layer-1 vs layer-2 dichotomy is the wrong way to think about blockchain networks.

根據Nailwal的說法，第1層與2層二分法是思考區塊鍊網絡的錯誤方法。

The Polygon founder defined only two settlement layers in all of crypto, Bitcoin and Ethereum, with all other crypto networks being execution layers.

Polygon創始人在所有加密，比特幣和以太坊中僅定義了兩個結算層，所有其他加密網絡都是執行層。

In the future, almost every application will have its own blockchain to avoid paying gas fees and will post final transactions to one of these settlement layers.

將來，幾乎每個應用程序都會有自己的區塊鏈，以避免支付汽油費，並將最終交易發布給這些和解層之一。

This will create an ecosystem of efficient and specialized application blockchains that are focused on specific use cases. For example, there may be an autonomous science collective using Optimism or a large-scale DeFi protocol operating on Polygon.

這將創建一個專門針對特定用例的高效和專業應用區塊鏈的生態系統。例如，使用樂觀主義或對多邊形運行的大規模DEFI協議可能會有一個自主科學集體。

These application blockchains will interact with each other and post their final transactions to either Bitcoin or Ethereum, which will serve as the ultimate arbiters of value and security.

這些應用區塊鏈將彼此相互作用，並將其最終交易發布給比特幣或以太坊，這些交易將成為價值和安全的最終仲裁者。

This scenario will benefit the base layer of both Bitcoin and Ethereum, but it seems that ultimately, more value will accrue to Ethereum due to its smart contract functionality, which will be in high demand by the application blockchains.

這種情況將受益於比特幣和以太坊的基礎層，但是由於其智能合同功能，最終，更多的價值將帶給以太坊，而應用區塊鏈的需求很高。

This will promote the long-term growth of the ecosystem, which will one day be seamlessly interoperable.

這將促進生態系統的長期增長，有一天將無縫互操作。

This view is in contrast to the narrative that Ethereum's L2s are a threat to the base layer due to the fact that they are cannibalizing it. This claim is supported by data showing a 99% drop in Ethereum L1 revenue by September 2024.

這種觀點與以太坊的L2s對基礎層的威脅形成鮮明對比，因為它們正在吞噬它。該索賠得到了數據的支持，顯示到2024年9月，以太坊L1收入下降了99％。

However, this view fails to take into account the big-picture changes that are unfolding in the blockchain landscape.

但是，這種觀點未能考慮到區塊鏈景觀中正在發生的重大圖片變化。

As application blockchains launch and begin securing their tokens, the base layer will benefit through increased activity and network effects.

隨著應用區塊鏈的啟動並開始確保其令牌，基本層將通過增加活動和網絡效應而受益。

This will also lead to a decrease in gas prices, further boosting the appeal of Ethereum to developers and users.

這也將導致汽油價格下降，從而進一步提高以太坊對開發商和用戶的吸引力。

Ultimately, the Bitcoin network could only pose a threat to Ethereum if it adopted more advanced scripting options that give it reliable, smart contract functionality like Ethereum.

最終，只有比特幣網絡採用了更高級的腳本選項來使其可靠，智能合同功能（如以太坊）構成威脅。

However, even then, the ecosystem of application blockchains executing on Ethereum and posting their final transactions to the beacon chain will be a formidable force that Bitcoin might struggle to compete with.

但是，即使到那時，應用程序區塊鏈的生態系統在以太坊上執行並將其最終交易發布給信標連鎖店將是比特幣可能難以與之競爭的強大力量。
