What if in the future there are no noticeable distinctions between L1s, L2s, and permissioned chains? Permissioned chains will pull and push data to other chains just the same as L1s and L2s will. Not every blockchain will optimize for censorship resistance or decentralization or permissionlessness. This is both inevitable and okay. Ethereum must remain maximally cypher punk, decentralized, permissonless, and censorship resistant. Other chains will serve their own purposes. Not everything needs to be on or be used by Ethereum. If I'm going to the grocery store I don't need a tank, I can just use a car. I don't always need to use Ethereum depending on the value of my transaction and what I'm optimizing for that day.

I love this privacy focused future and that it is being injected loudly into the ethos of the Ethereum community!

After a wonderful run, Polygon Labs and I have mutually decided that now is a good time for me to step down. I will continue cheering the team on from the sidelines, grateful for the journey, and rooting for Polygon.
