Now, to foster collaboration between Layer 2 (L2) solutions and Layer 1 (L1) networks while maximizing positive-sum games, L2s should adopt a more integrated and specialized approach. Purpose-built L2s tailored for distinct verticals such as DeFi, gaming, or supply chains can focus on optimizing performance for their specific use cases, enabling synergies between different L2 ecosystems. For instance, a gaming L2 can integrate with a DeFi L2 to enable in-game economies that tap into DeFi protocols, enhancing user experiences without direct competition. Establishing cross-layer governance frameworks, such as shared DAOs (as I mentioned earlier in Cross-layer Autonomous DAOs for Governance), can further streamline decision-making across L1 and L2s, enabling coordinated updates, fee-sharing models, and interoperability without fragmentation. Additionally, L2s should try to prioritize creating dynamic resource-sharing models (like the Actor Model I talked about), where computational power and liquidity can be fluidly allocated between layers and among various L2s. Shared liquidity pools and cross-chain bridges can prevent liquidity fragmentation, offering users seamless, low-cost interactions across multiple networks. Furthermore, L2s can explore experimental ideas such as incentivized data storage or decentralized AI computation, offering new utility layers that encourage collaboration across the blockchain ecosystem. By focusing on interoperability, specialized use cases, and shared resources, L2s can nurture a more collaborative environment with L1, ensuring scalable, efficient, and innovative solutions that benefit all participants.
