Layered Complexity
David discusses Ethereum's evolution towards a thinner layer one, emphasizing a trend of decentralization by pushing complexity to layer twos. He reflects on the notion of Bitcoin as an app chain and how Ethereum is following suit by focusing on executing transactions at the layer two level. Mike adds that the permissionless nature of these networks allows for diverse applications, challenging the idea of limiting functionality within a single blockchain.In this clip
