𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿-1, 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿-2, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿-3 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿?

A key question for anyone new to crypto or an enthusiast is understanding the significance of different blockchain layers.

Each blockchain layer plays a distinct role in the blockchain ecosystem, offering unique benefits and addressing specific challenges.

𝗟𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸 👇

𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿-1 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀:
Layer-1 is the foundational layer, focusing on security and decentralization but faces some scalability issues.

- 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿-1 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀: Bitcoin, Ethereum

𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿-2 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀:
To address the limitations of Layer-1, Layer-2 solutions emerged.
Layer-2 built on top of Layer-1, they enhance scalability and efficiency while maintaining a high level of security.

- 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿-2 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀: Polygon Labs, Arbitrum

𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿-3 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀:
There were still some limitations that couldn't be addressed by Layer-1 and Layer-2 blockchains.

Therefore, Layer-3 blockchains were developed to focus on interoperability and customization, providing the flexibility needed for advanced applications and services.

- 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿-3 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀: Orbs, Arbitrum Orbit, zkSync Hyperchain

Share your thoughts! Do you think there are limitations that Layer-3 can't overcome, leading to the need for Layer-4 solutions?
