Some commentators note that Based Rollups align incentives between Ethereum layer 2 and its base layer validators, which could result in deflationary issuance again.
Based Rollups could provide a solution to the issue of Ethereum’s layer-2 networks pulling liquidity and revenue from the blockchain’s base layer.
Based Rollups, a layer-2 scaling solution that uses layer-1 validators for processing instead of their own sequencers, could “directly impact the monetization of Ethereum by making a pretty fundamental change to incentive structures,” Cinneamhain Ventures partner Adam Cochran said in a Sept. 10 X post.
This could easily increase the long-term demand for Ether (ETH) by a hundred times, he added.
