Ethereum takes a significant step towards a layer-2 centric future after the Dencun hard fork, leading Vitalik Buterin to call for a shift in mentality.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is calling for a mindset shift toward building layer-2 (L2) decentralized applications and solutions following the successful completion of the Dencun hard fork.
Speaking at the ETH Global’s Pragma London event on March 14, Buterin hailed the completion of the network upgrade, which enables L2 rollups to achieve scale by reducing the costs associated with submitting cryptographic proofs to Ethereum’s base layer.
The event drew over 500 attendees ahead of a weekend-long hackathon and Buterin’s attendance served as a big draw card towards the end of the day’s program of speakers.
