MultiversX core developer Robert Sasu responded to Vitalik's comment about "crypto entering early stages of L2 cost reduction, ZK-SNARKS, and account abstraction" by stating that centralized sequencers can actually be cheap on truly decentralized networks. He acknowledged the great potential of Rollup-based networks like Taiko, but emphasized that they currently represent a minority. He expressed hope for greater adoption of Rollups and believes L1 should scale to eliminate the need for unnecessary L2s, arguing that expanding the base layer offers significant benefits.
