Are “L1 rollups” possible without L2s by sort of virtually doing TXs on L1, and proving them with ZKR on L1, and storing all that on L1 shards, or something to reduce gas on L1?
There are benefits to staying in L1 by increasing TPS & reducing L1 fees like
- TVL all in 1 place, less spread out.
The spread out problem is perhaps mitigated by seamless direct cross L2 as OP mentions for future
- Get funds out of complex, very-high-gas contracts ($1000+ gas)
If such “L1 rollups” were possible, would they compete with L2’s for shard capacity? L1 would seem to win
What TPS can L1 have before a phase 2, with its up to 64, but likely closer to 8, execution shards?
With phase 2, will the TPS be multiplied by the number of execution shards? Or how does it reach 1-5k?
Thanks! Great post!
