<h4><strong>In a recent X post dated September 12, <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=Buterin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Buterin</a> emphasized that from next year. He will publicly endorse only those L2 networks that meet or exceed this threshold. </strong></h4> 
<p>He stressed that personal investments or friendships will not sway his stance—it’s “stage 1 or bust”. Let’s explore more about the opinion of Buterin about Layer-2 Projects.</p> 
<h5><strong>Buterin Sets ‘Stage 1’ Benchmark for Layer-2 Projects</strong></h5> 
<p>Buterin’s criteria for L2 decentralization are part of a framework he introduced in 2022. Outlining a progression through three distinct stages.</p>

<p>The framework is designed to guide the evolution of rollup projects from initial deployment to full decentralization:</p> 
<ul> 
 <li><strong>Stage 0</strong>, or “<a href="https://ethereum-magicians.org/t/proposed-milestones-for-rollups-taking-off-training-wheels/11571" target="_blank" rel="noopener">full training wheels</a>,” describes a rollup project where all transactions are recorded on-chain. This allows users to interact and withdraw without operator intervention. However, these projects rely on a simple multi-signature wallet for control and do not incorporate fraud or validity proofs.</li> 
 <li><strong>Stage 1</strong> is the minimum level that Buterin will acknowledge going forward. At this stage, L2 solutions must implement active fraud-proof or validity-proof schemes and include a multi-signature-based override mechanism, also known as a “security council.” This council must consist of at least six out of eight signatories and be independent of the roll-up organization. Additionally, upgrades must have a seven-day delay to ensure stability and security.</li> 
</ul> 
<p>The final milestone is <strong>Stage 2</strong>, or “no training wheels,” where no group has the authority to override the code output if it is bug-free. At this stage, the use of security councils is highly restricted and only allowed for clear bug fixes, with a 30-day upgrade activation delay.</p> 
<p>Buterin’s comments highlight a shift away from what he terms “glorified multisigs” toward a more rigorous standard of cryptographic trust. Many zero-knowledge rollup teams have indicated they aim to reach Stage 1 by the end of the year, and Buterin has expressed excitement about this progress.</p>
