Topic: LAYER 2 projects to HOLD waiting for the next uptrend of the cryptocurrency. - page 2. (Read 280 times)

I'd rather work on retrodrop for projects that will have their own tokens to support decentralization instead of using L2 blockchains that already exist in the market.
It seems like that the popularity of L1 blockchain was less compared with L2 blockchain.

In fact, L1 blockchain like SUI and SEI have less TVL compared with L2 blockchain. The ecosystem that owned by SUI and SEI are terrible caused by it's fully with scammers.

Mantle has been launching its token https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/mantle/
The participants that already actively contributed in the early phase were already rewarded, but the reward was not so lucrative as OP or Arbitrum.

I think they will, base reached high tvl in short time just because of possibility of token and of retrospective airdrop.

If Base was one of the competitor for sure that will have a piece of the pie here in this list and it's surely steadily rising in TVL. Been using Arbitrum in the past but what I like with Base is that it may scale even more considering Coinbase's reputation in the industry. I wonder if they really have their own token.

I have big hopes from Arbitrum and Optimism. Arbitrum is having highest TPS right now amongst L2s and will scale Ethereum to thousands with sharding (as rumoured, 100k) while many L2s are being built using OP stack (popular being coinbase's Base).

Arbitrum is the market leader right now proven by its TVL, but I was surprised by Optimism development in recent months. We've seen several other L2s adopting the OP stack like Base and opBNB. I'm not sure whether it'll directly affect the $OP token or not (most likely not) but an interesting development regardless.

As for other L2s which don't have tokens yet, I'm most excited for zkSync. The usage metrics for zkSync might be inflated now due to airdrop farmers' activity, but compared to other new L2s, e.g. Starknet, Linea, etc., it has the most hype and community support so far.

True. The Polygon PoS is more like a sidechain, but they are working on Polygon zkEVM which will be an L2 of Ethereum. This is already in mainnet beta phase and you can bridge some ETH assets there.

There are a lot of new L1 and L2 projects waiting for the bull market to start before launching. Some of these projects, like Q Blockchain, Lamina1, Mantle, have airdrop and incentive programs for people who participate in their network.

when it comes to layer 2 the only coin that i'm optimistc of is simply arbitrum, maybe because the fact that their blockchain ecosystem growth was quite rapid back in the days, there was so many dapps and even meme coins deployed there that make the blockchain interesting and more lively than its competition, also the fact that it surpass optimism means its just better right? thats why i'm currently holding it.
but i wonder if polygon could actually be categorized L2 since its standalone blockchain, the gas fee isn't even using ethereum.
but speaking from the perspective of investment polygon is just as good, but I always have this thinking that polygon is basically almost the same as BSC, will always be alternative for ethereum.

It has always been unclear to me why the success of crypto projects is associated with the price of a coin if we do not receive any dividends from owning this coin. The securities market is more understandable, where the price of a security is directly related to the success of the company and, accordingly, dividends.

I am waiting for Binance Smart Chain (BSC) will be surpassed by any of these layer-2 networks especially Arbitrum, it is just a matter of time.
Arbitrum right now is leading and I agree with it already, using Arbitrum is good compared to other layer-2 networks.
Another event that we are waiting for is the time when the token of Arbitrum will pump as we also how layer-2 networks token before pumps and the TVL growth is unexpectedly high, it seems bullrun is only what we are waiting for.

Competition in crypto is always one of the things that appears familiar in the  market. Recalling a bit of what we went through in the most recent uptrend cycle,
that competition is mainly in the top L1, and is easily accessible. Things will not be like this forever, as many problems have been seen, such as operations, fees, speed,...
and L2 will be a new competition to solve these problems.

Why is it like that?



If everyone notices that L2 listing or airdrop announcement, then the market is quite exciting, and there are quite a lot of people participating in the market.
Looking at the overall data, markercap,... L2 projects always have Top crypto, TVL is also something that says many things, like a high TVL will depend on the project
team working well as a whole. Use trust when staking into pools in the L2 ecosystem.

A year and a half ago, I heard many people talking about ETH vs BNB in ​​the near future, but now that L2 has joined the main Ethereum network, it is
creating expansion as well as bringing in more Dapps networks, and ETH's TVL has far surpassed BNB. I know the story that when entering the uptrend
period, the investment tendency of traders is to use a lot of money to invest in this market, as I recently saw things about L2 investors raising money.
A lot of money (there are projects raising more than $100 million) has partly determined the trend will belong to L2, at the same time, Ethereum's L1
competitors do not have many breakthroughs or marketing for money to flow in L2, which is constantly being marketed on every social channel. The upcoming
Ethereum updates will aim to expand the network as well as other L2, and every time an L2 project launches a token, it is an exciting time in the crypto community.

So the vision with L2 top What is that?

• Optimism ( OP)

          TVL: ~ $704,72m
          Market cap: ~ $1b

• Arbitrum ( ARB)

          TVL: ~$1,7b
          Market cap:  ~$1,2b

• Polygon ( MATIC)

          TVL: ~ $804,8m
          Market cap:  ~ $5,1b


I see this as the top project on L2 that I'm also paying a lot of attention to,

the first project OP is quite interested in, there's a lot to say about it but I think simplification is the start, I' m sure this is one
of the projects that people pay a lot of attention to and are accumulat,talking about features, the project helps reduce fees, speed up...
bring smoothness but still safety.

ARB with its extremely huge TVL/mc ratio, it deserves a leading position in the crypto market.

As for MATIC, I see their strength as they have been around for a long time so they have enough experience and strategy.

So through this, I also had a few small studies as well as speculation about L2 in the near future. Basically, most of the things that L2 needs to do well are process
transactions at a fast speed, reduce gas fees,  scales Dapp deployment, and require a strong enough MM to maintain the price. And this is also my speculation
about the top L2 projects, the information and opinions are all based on personal subjective knowledge, hoping to receive everyone's contribution. In addition, you
can also suggest the L2 project you are following.
