His insights into technologies and predictions never fail to amaze. For instance, in one of his March <a href="https://newzchain.com/vitalik-buterin-advocates-for-positive-impact-of-memecoins/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">articles</a>, Buterin talked about some of the interesting aspects of such charity coins and the concept of Robin Hood games.Recently in one of his <a href="https://vitalik.eth.limo/general/2024/05/29/l2culture.html" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">blog posts</a>, Buterin shared insightful perspectives on the future and nature of Layer-2 (L2) protocols. According to Buterin, L2 protocols also serve as a breeding ground for crypto subcultures; they are like “cultural extensions of the Ethereum.”<blockquote>“For a subculture, a layer 2 is the ultimate playing field for action. Layer 2s allow subcultures to emerge that are armed with substantial resources, and a feedback loop that forces them to learn and adapt in order to be effective in the real world,” wrote Buterin.</blockquote>According to Buterin, popular researcher Prof. Paul Dylan-Ennis identified three key subcultures within the crypto space: old-school &#34;cypherpunks&#34; who build infrastructure and tools without dictating their use, philanthropic &#34;regens&#34; who focus on community public goods, and speculation-driven &#34;degens&#34; who profit from trending memecoins or NFTs.Furthermore, he also states that a layer-2-centric ecosystem is inherently more pluralistic, naturally leading to a greater diversity of approaches in scaling, virtual machine design, and other technological features.This news was originally published on <a href="https://newzchain.com/vitalik-buterin-layer-2-crypto-subcultures-innovation/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Newzchain</a>.
