The Layer-2 Landscape: Scaling Up, But Creating New Problems

Layer-2 networks like Arbitrum, zkSync, and Cosmos have been total game-changers, tackling the scalability issues that plagued early blockchain iterations. Arbitrum bundles transactions using optimistic rollups, zkSync uses zero-knowledge rollups for enhanced privacy, and Cosmos uses Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol, offering faster speeds and lower fees. But all these separate ecosystems? They've created fragmentation and governance headaches.

The Coordination and Governance Gaps

Here's the thing: all these Layer-2 solutions are so focused on speed and efficiency that they forgot to play nice with each other. Interoperability is a mess, with complex bridging solutions causing security risks and extra fees. And governance?
