Foresight News reports that the Ethereum Foundation (EF) has announced the formation of the Ethereum Platform team, aimed at enabling L1 and L2 to better support users, applications, and all organizations built on Ethereum.
Since the first proposal of a rollup-centric development roadmap five years ago, the Ethereum L1 ecosystem has become increasingly rich, resulting in multiple differentiated L2 chains with unique economic models. The new team will focus on providing a unified platform that fully leverages the unique capabilities of the Ethereum system (L1 + L2), including enhancing the value proposition of L2, promoting widespread adoption of L2, and creating value linkages with Ethereum.
The Platform team will evaluate the overall success and shortcomings of Ethereum as a system, proactively assess necessary improvements, and pay attention to challenges encountered in building a robust system. The team’s focus includes protocol development, technical integration with developers and institutions, and overall strategic tracking to ensure effective feedback mechanisms between L1 and L2.
