AdTech DAOs have the potential to disrupt traditional ad networks by enabling decentralized, transparent, and community-governed advertising. Unlike centralized platforms (e.g., Google Ads), AdTech DAOs use smart contracts to directly connect advertisers and publishers, reducing fees and intermediaries. They offer transparent on-chain data, fair revenue splits, and global permissionless participation. Users and creators can vote on rules, approve ads, and share in the value. However, challenges remain—like lack of mainstream adoption, limited advertiser trust, and weaker fraud detection tools. Traditional networks still dominate in scale, targeting, and infrastructure. Still, for Web3-native communities and creator ecosystems, AdTech DAOs provide a powerful alternative: one that aligns incentives, shares value fairly, and gives stakeholders real control.

Layer 2 (L2) domain systems can significantly enhance on-chain domain resolution efficiency. By offloading computation and storage to L2 networks, domain resolution becomes faster and more cost-effective, reducing gas fees and congestion on the main chain. L2 solutions like optimistic or ZK rollups can cache or pre-process domain data, enabling near-instant lookups while preserving security via periodic settlement on Layer 1. This architecture supports scalable, user-friendly blockchain applications with DNS-like experiences.

The growth of Bitcoin's Lightning Network can reduce pressure on the main chain by offloading smaller, frequent transactions. As more users adopt Lightning for payments, fewer transactions settle directly on-chain, which can ease network congestion and potentially lower transaction fees. However, opening and closing Lightning channels still require on-chain transactions, so if adoption spikes rapidly, it may temporarily increase main chain demand. In the long term, widespread Lightning use may help stabilize or reduce fees by shifting routine activity off-chain, especially during peak periods.
