Vitalik Buterin said that the role of L2s in the Ethereum ecosystem needs to be redefined.

According to Buterin, while the transition of L2s to “Stage 2” is progressing slower than expected, the Ethereum mainnet (L1) is scaling rapidly and transaction fees are low. Therefore, L2s should no longer be seen as just “shards of Ethereum,” but as networks with different security and connectivity levels.

Buterin emphasized that L2s should produce new values such as privacy, ultra-low latency, and application-focused efficiency instead of just “scaling.”

He also mentioned that Ethereum could enable secure and more robust L2 integration with a “native rollup precompile.”
