ChainCatcher message, independent researcher Chen Jian posted on X that there are currently two main ways to address the fragmentation of Ethereum liquidity. One is chain abstraction, which involves adding another chain on top of all L2s to route transactions, and the other is to solve it in a "cluster" manner, that is, placing a hub below L2 to route transactions, or what is called a shared sequencer.For example, OP Superchain follows this idea, and puffer finance's Based Rollup has a similar approach, but it is more fundamentally native, allowing Native Staking Ethereum layer nodes to receive all Layer2 transactions in advance through AVS-protected pre-confirmation.In fact, technically solving Ethereum fragmentation is relatively easy; the main bottleneck lies in the economic game theory aspect. On one hand, the Ethereum Foundation needs to be more assertive and united, and on the other hand, a balance needs to be found in terms of mutual benefits and win-win scenarios.
