Polygon 執行長猛烈抨擊 Layer 3 網絡，譴責對以太坊的負面影響

Polygon 執行長 Marc Boiron 對第 3 層 (L3) 網路提出了批評，認為它們轉移了以太坊的價值並阻礙了擴展工作。儘管承認第 2 層 (L2) 解決方案的好處，但 Boiron 認為 L3 對網路的安全和經濟可持續性構成風險，聲稱它們可能會導致以太坊價值捕獲減少和驗證者信心下降。

Polygon CEO Denounces Layer 3 Networks, Asserting Negative Impact on Ethereum

Polygon 執行長譴責第 3 層網絡，聲稱對以太坊產生負面影響

ETHDenver, Colorado, March 31, 2024 - Amidst the ongoing discourse surrounding Ethereum scaling solutions, Polygon CEO Marc Boiron has vehemently criticized Layer 3 (L3) networks, alleging that they detract value from Ethereum and impede its network growth.

科羅拉多州ETHDenver，2024 年3 月31 日- 在圍繞以太坊擴展解決方案的持續討論中，Polygon 首席執行官Marc Boiron 強烈批評第3 層(L3) 網絡，聲稱它們降低了以太坊的價值並阻礙其網路成長。

L3s: A Detriment to Ethereum's Value Proposition

L3：以太坊價值主張的損害

Boiron's critique centers on the assertion that L3 networks serve solely to divert value away from Ethereum and towards the Layer 2 (L2) solutions upon which they are built. He argues that L3s are unnecessary for Ethereum's scalability, and their implementation would only burden the network with additional layers of complexity.

Boiron 的批評集中在這樣的斷言上：L3 網路的作用只是將價值從以太坊轉移到建構它們的第 2 層 (L2) 解決方案。他認為 L3 對於以太坊的可擴展性來說是不必要的，它們的實現只會給網路帶來額外的複雜性負擔。

"L3s exist only to take value away from Ethereum and onto the L2s on which the L3s are built," Boiron stated. "You do not need L3s to scale."

Boiron 表示：“L3 的存在只是為了將價值從以太坊轉移到構建 L3 的 L2 上。” “你不需要 L3 來擴展。”

This stance aligns with Polygon Labs' decision to abstain from developing L3 solutions, as Boiron emphasized. While acknowledging the importance of L2s in supporting Ethereum's network, he disputed the notion that L2 value equates to Ethereum's value.

正如 Boiron 所強調的那樣，這一立場與 Polygon Labs 放棄開發 L3 解決方案的決定是一致的。雖然承認 L2 在支持以太坊網路方面的重要性，但他對 L2 價值等同於以太坊價值的觀點提出了質疑。

Security Concerns and Economic Implications

安全問題和經濟影響

Boiron raised concerns regarding the potential risks to Ethereum's security if all L3s converged on a single L2. Such a scenario, he believes, would erode Ethereum's value capture and jeopardize its economic sustainability.

Boiron 對如果所有 L3 都匯聚到單一 L2 上可能對以太坊安全帶來的潛在風險表示擔憂。他認為，這種情況將削弱以太坊的價值捕獲並危及其經濟永續性。

"If Ethereum ceases to generate fees and has no prospects for fee generation beyond a single L2," Boiron explained, "the value of ETH would decline." This situation could lead validators to lose confidence in ETH, resulting in a decline in network security as validators withdraw from securing the network.

Boiron 解釋說：“如果以太坊停止產生費用，並且在單一 L2 之外沒有產生費用的前景，那麼 ETH 的價值將會下降。”這種情況可能會導致驗證者對 ETH 失去信心，隨著驗證者退出保護網絡，導致網路安全性下降。

Contesting the Benefits of L3s

爭論 L3 的優勢

In a rejoinder to Boiron's claims, Peter Haymond, a community member involved in building scaling solutions for Ethereum, countered that L3s offer a range of benefits without necessarily detracting value from Ethereum.

參與建構以太坊擴展解決方案的社群成員 Peter Haymond 反駁了 Boiron 的說法，他反駁道，L3 提供了一系列好處，但不一定會降低以太坊的價值。

"There's a bunch of benefits for L3's. They don't take away value from Ethereum," Haymond tweeted.

「L3 有很多好處。它們不會剝奪以太坊的價值，」Haymond 在推特上寫道。

Polygon CDK: Bridging the Gap

Polygon CDK：彌合差距

Boiron acknowledged the advantages of low-cost native bridging inherent in L2 solutions. However, he cautioned against the economic and security costs associated with relying on external bridges, which could introduce delays in capital usage and require payments for expedited capital access.

Boiron 承認 L2 解決方案固有的低成本本機橋接的優勢。不過，他警告稱，依賴外部橋樑會帶來經濟和安全成本，這可能會導致資本使用延遲，並需要為加快資本獲取支付費用。

Additionally, Boiron questioned the perceived benefits of low-cost challenge or proving, suggesting that such costs may be mitigated through proof aggregation. He also dismissed the notion of custom gas tokens as an exclusive benefit, highlighting their availability for L2s on Polygon CDK.

此外，布瓦龍質疑低成本挑戰或證明的明顯好處，表明可以透過證明聚合來減輕此類成本。他還駁斥了客製化 Gas 代幣作為一種獨特優勢的概念，強調了它們在 Polygon CDK 上的 L2 的可用性。

Ultimately, Boiron categorized other potential benefits attributed to L3s as not truly exclusive to these networks, as they are also available for L2s, thereby rendering the need for L3s superfluous.

最終，Boiron 將 L3 帶來的其他潛在好處歸類為並非真正專屬於這些網絡，因為它們也可用於 L2，從而使 L3 的需求變得多餘。

Conclusion

結論

Polygon CEO Marc Boiron's outspoken critique of Layer 3 networks has ignited a lively debate within the Ethereum community. While some argue that L3s provide valuable benefits and do not detract from Ethereum's value proposition, others share Boiron's concerns about their potential negative impact on network security and scalability. As the discourse continues, the future role of L3s in Ethereum's scaling landscape remains an open question.

Polygon 執行長 Marc Boiron 對 Layer 3 網路的直言不諱的批評在以太坊社區內引發了激烈的爭論。雖然有些人認為 L3 提供了寶貴的好處，並且不會損害以太坊的價值主張，但其他人也與 Boiron 一樣擔心它們對網路安全性和可擴展性的潛在負面影響。隨著討論的繼續，L3 在以太坊擴容領域的未來角色仍然是一個懸而未決的問題。
