Layer 2s have been a great blockchain success story. They’ve reduced congestion on the Ethereum mainnet, driving down gas fees while preserving security.

第2层是一个很好的区块链成功故事。他们减少了以太坊主网上的拥塞，在保存安全性的同时降低了汽油费。

But maybe they’ve become too successful, drawing chain activity and fee income from the parent that spawned them? At least that’s what some are suggesting lately, most recently at Cornell Tech’s blockchain conference in late April.

但是，也许他们变得太成功了，从催生他们的父母那里吸引了连锁活动和收费收入？至少这是一些最近的建议，最近一次是在4月下旬的康奈尔理工大学的区块链会议上。

Indeed, some think Ethereum should be a little greedier, or at least fight harder for a bigger part of the revenue pie, particularly sequencing fees.

确实，有些人认为以太坊应该有点贪婪，或者至少要为更大的收入派，尤其是测序费用而努力。

“People in the Ethereum Foundation [the nonprofit that supports the Ethereum ecosystem] will tell you that, ‘Yes, we effed up by being too ivory tower.’ I have heard that multiple times,” said David Hoffman, an owner at Bankless, during a panel discussion at the Cornell Tech event in New York City on April 25.

“以太坊基金会（支持以太坊生态系统的非营利组织）中的人们会告诉你，'是的，我们通过过于象牙塔而效率。'我听说过多次。

Elsewhere, Hoffman has urged Ethereum to make a “strategic pivot,” noting that the crypto environment has changed in the last few years. Ethereum no longer has the “luxury of being a peace-time research project…. exploited by its competition.”

在其他地方，霍夫曼（Hoffman）敦促以太坊制作一个“战略枢纽”，并指出加密环境在过去几年中发生了变化。以太坊不再具有“成为和平时期研究项目的奢侈……。

L2s are reaping millions of dollars in transaction order fees (sometimes called sequencing fees), but none of these revenues are being passed on to Ethereum, according to James Beck, head of growth at ENS Labs and another speaker at the New York City conference. Beck told Cointelegraph:In short, Ethereum is a neutral verification layer, but the Ethereum mainnet is not being fairly compensated for the work that it is doing. Centralized for-profit L2s like Base, Optimism and Arbitrum are gathering the lucrative sequencing fees while enjoying the security and liveness guarantees of the Ethereum mainnet at relatively little economic cost.L2s soared after Dencun upgradeL2 rollups are a recent innovation; they only emerged in 2023. The idea was to reduce chain congestion and gas fees by moving transaction processing from the main blockchain (layer 1) to separate chains that sit atop the mainnet (L2s). But transaction processing is arguably the most profitable part of the revenue game, especially when users opt to pay priority fees to get their orders processed faster.

ENS Labs的增长负责人詹姆斯·贝克（James Beck）表示，L2S正在收获数百万美元的交易订单费（有时称为测序费用），但这些收入均未传递给以太坊。贝克告诉Cointelegraph：简而言之，以太坊是一个中性的验证层，但是以太坊的主网并未对其所做的工作得到相当大的补偿。基础，乐观和仲裁等集中的营利性L2正在收集利润丰厚的测序费用，同时以相对较少的经济成本享受以太坊主网的安全性和livesice保证。L2S在Dencun Upgradel2汇总之后飙升，是最近的创新。它们仅在2023年出现。这个想法是通过将交易处理从主要区块链（第1层）移动到位于主网（L2S）上的链条来减少链充血和汽油费。但是，交易处理可以说是收入游戏中最有利可图的部分，尤其是当用户选择支付优先费以更快地处理订单时。
