According to Ki Young Ju, L1s with specific use cases have a higher potential for success compared to general-purpose ones. The recent launch of a new Layer 1 blockchain focused on Intellectual Property aims to make IP programmable, which could attract traders interested in niche blockchain applications. Ju plans to conduct on-chain analysis once more data is available.

According to Vitalik Buterin, the concept of a 'based rollup' is primarily defined by the layer 1 (L1) acting as the sequencer, and it does not necessarily involve interoperability standards or require the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This clarification suggests that 'based rollups' can operate independently of specific interop standards, potentially impacting how developers and traders view rollup implementations.

According to Vitalik Buterin, a significant challenge with enshrining execution fees within the Layer 1 (L1) protocol is the inability to reliably measure the fees on Layer 2 (L2). He compares this to a government trying to enforce sales tax by accessing the RAM of digital payment systems, highlighting the complexity and impracticality of such an approach.

According to Vitalik Buterin, there is significant interest among Layer 2 (L2) solutions to collaborate on improving interoperability within the Ethereum ecosystem. He also noted that Ethereum's Layer 1 (L1) has become more robust over the past year, despite challenges related to censorship and centralization.
