Ethereum’s scalability solution may create more problems than it solves. Here’s why we need to look beyond rollups.
Opinion by: Adrian Brink, co-founder of Anoma
Rollups have become the go-to solution to Ethereum’s scalability issues. As the ecosystem expands, however, the challenges created by rollups — including continued state and liquidity fragmentation and their inability to create a unified user experience — are becoming critical barriers to Ethereum’s evolution.
Rollups alone do not unlock any fundamentally new functionality or capabilities for developers. We need new approaches to blockchain architectures to unlock Ethereum’s true potential rather than continuing to innovate at the margins.
