Bitcoin lacks real-world use cases for everyday economic activities. Rollups can unlock entirely new application categories while boosting demand for L1 settlement.



But here’s a key point: only those L2 solutions that retain Bitcoin’s mandatory exit and dispute resolution mechanisms can expand practicality while maintaining Bitcoin’s security. In other words, the security anchor must always point to Bitcoin itself.

These types of L2 are different—they can handle high throughput without sacrificing the underlying security properties. Technically, this is a more reliable scaling approach.

Basically, it's still the same old story—the balance between security and throughput, nothing new.

lol they're always selling us the "security anchor" narrative but let's examine the actual contract design here... most of these L2s just slap bitcoin settlement on top and call it secure. saw this exact pattern back in 2021 with the sidechain craze

Basically, it's the same old story — no real practical scenarios, just armchair strategizing. Bitcoin itself is a settlement layer; after all the fuss, we still have to go back to Bitcoin. Doesn't that mean there's no true scalability?

Basically, Bitcoin is still the slowpoke right now, and L2 is stepping in to save the day. But I think the key is to stick firmly to that security anchor and not let go; otherwise, it's just a house of cards.

Well said, the security anchor pointing to BTC is indeed the key... But in reality, how many L2 teams will honestly do this?
