PANews reported on May 30 that Vitalik Buterin stated in his latest article that L2 is a cultural extension of Ethereum. The article points out that Ethereum is an L2-centered ecosystem, where developers are free to independently build a sub-ecosystem with unique features, and this sub-ecosystem is also part of the larger Ethereum. Some specific ways that L2 can achieve cultural specialization include: being more willing to conduct user expansion or "business expansion"; emphasizing the diversity of values; and the diversity of participants. The core value proposition of the L2-centered cultural approach is to balance the benefits of diversity and cooperation by creating a set of different subcultures. These subcultures still share some common values and work together on key common infrastructure to achieve these values.
