Rising Layer 1 fees directly increase the cost of posting transaction data (e.g., rollups), which can be passed on to Layer 2 users.
Security Benefits:
A robust, decentralized Layer 1 strengthens the security foundation that Layer 2 solutions rely on, boosting user trust.
Incentivizes Scaling Upgrades:
High demand drives development of Layer 1 improvements like danksharding, designed to reduce data storage costs and support massive Layer 2 scalability.
As Layer 2 usage grows, more transactions are batched and settled on Layer 1, increasing data load and potentially raising gas fees during peak times.
Congestion Risk:
Despite offloading execution, Layer 1 must store transaction data, which can still cause congestion—e.g., Ethereum gas fees spiked during memecoin surges, affecting Layer 2 costs.
Enhanced Value Accrual:
Higher Layer 2 activity reinforces Layer 1’s role as a secure settlement layer, increasing demand for its native token (e.g., ETH for security and fees).
$PIPPIN I would recommend traders to avoid trading pippin and BEAT because of the volatility swings and too great risk. You decide whatever you want but the consequences might be severe. #TradeResponsibly #managerisk
$PIPPIN I suggest everyone to avoid trading futures contracts of this symbol because it is extremely low on liquidity and it is decreasing continuously as you place new orders on market price.
$BEAT or more likely just opening small size short position and closing them after funding rate recalibrates

$BEAT manipulators are closing their long positions 5 minutes before 1 hour elapses and reopening again 10 minutes later to retain negative funding rates

The one million dollar question is....Is holding XLM for a long time say 5-10 years going to make a milionair? If the answer is no then why would I care about it?
