Can Layer-2 Networks Solve Blockchain’s Scalability Problem?
Blockchain networks have traditionally faced a trade-off between speed, cost, and decentralisation. Layer-2 networks aim to process transactions more efficiently while using an underlying blockchain for security and settlement. Their growth has helped expand blockchain capacity, but users still have to navigate different networks, bridges, and fee structures. Are Layer-2s the long-term solution to blockchain scalability, or will entirely new architectures eventually replace them?
