The Layer 2 ecosystem is a high-potential investment in 2025, as it fuels Ethereum’s scalability for DeFi, gaming, and tokenized assets. Arbitrum and Optimism lead due to robust developer adoption and community support. Arbitrum’s edge comes from its larger ecosystem, hosting 405 protocols versus Optimism’s 164, and higher daily active addresses, indicating strong user engagement. Its Arbitrum DAO and ARB token governance empower community-driven growth, while partnerships like LayerZero enhance cross-chain interoperability. Optimism shines with its developer-friendly OP Stack, powering chains like Base, and its Retroactive Public Goods Funding, which incentivizes innovative projects. Its community-focused governance, including the Token House and Citizens’ House, fosters loyalty and long-term ecosystem health. 0 reply
