Announcing the Platform Team at EF

Platform is simply a caller squad wrong the EF with 1 goal:

Deliver the strongest imaginable Ethereum platform, wherever L1 and L2s are champion positioned to enactment users, apps, and each organizations gathering connected Ethereum. This requires improving the L1 <> L2 relationship, truthful that we turn arsenic a mutually reinforcing strategy crossed each layer.

Since the rollup-centric roadmap was archetypal projected 5 years ago, an ecosystem of chains has grown up astir the Ethereum L1. The aboriginal intelligence exemplary of rollups has fixed mode to a web of differentiated L2s, each with chiseled and invaluable economies, extending Ethereum’s halfway properties to millions of users.

As Ethereum matures, we indispensable bash much to present a cohesive level that afloat leverages the unsocial capabilities of Ethereum arsenic a strategy (L1 + L2s). This includes enhancing the worth proposition of being an L2, tightening the flywheel truthful that L2 adoption drives worth to Ethereum much broadly, guiding the ecosystem toward much unafraid and permissionless architectures, and making it easier to navigate for users and institutions adopting Ethereum. Importantly, portion of delivering a beardown Ethereum means pushing towards technological improvements that reenforce and amplify the halfway properties astir indispensable to and uniquely enabled by Ethereum.

The Platform squad volition measure and admit some the successes and shortcomings of Ethereum arsenic a system. We should beryllium unrecorded players, evaluating indispensable improvements, portion besides being mindful of the tensions that beryllium connected the way to gathering fixed systems that basal the trial of time.

How this comes unneurotic successful Platform

• Protocol development

  • Product-led R&D to amended the spot of the ecosystem arsenic a whole
  • Funnel ecosystem needs into protocol roadmap and fork planning
  • Ensure protocol upgrades construe into real-world adoption and usage

• Protocol integration

• Proactive engagement with builders and institutions to supply guidance connected protocol, roadmap, and method integrations

• Strategy and tracking

  • Ensure affirmative feedback loops crossed L1 + L2 strategy
  • Metrics to way web health
  • Improve Ethereum ecosystem legibility crossed nationalist dashboards

What this provides to Ethereum

• Clear, shared knowing of L1 and L2 roles
• A protocol and web that champion leverages the strengths of each layer
• L2 adoption reinforces Ethereum’s halfway properties and ETH, and L1 maturation provides a much almighty instauration for L2s
• Clear and compelling pathways for organizations and institutions to follow Ethereum

We are excited to get Platform disconnected the crushed and accelerate galore cardinal initiatives unneurotic with the broader community. Stay tuned for updates and much info.
