What layer 2s currently exist on Bitcoin, other than lightning?
Interesting interview with jack (nprofile…3r3l)
Do layer 3s currently exist on top of lightning?
ChatGPT deep research got me to the following list of layer 2s:
- Lightning
- Liquid
- Rootstock
- Stacks
- Statechains
I’ve only used lightning, have heard of liquid, but none of the others.
Are there any other layer 2s gaining traction?
What is cashu considered? I’ve heard Jeff Booth (nprofile…7p82) mention Fedi - is this a layer 2?
Any resources on these topics are greatly appreciated and will be zapped ⚡️
