ChainCatcher News: The Ethereum Foundation announces the establishment of the Platform Team, aimed at building the most robust Ethereum platform possible to better support users, applications, and all organizations built on Ethereum across both L1 and L2 layers.

The goal is to improve the relationship between the L1 and L2 layers, creating a mutually reinforcing system across different levels. The Foundation states that since the rollout of the rollup-centric roadmap five years ago, an ecosystem of chains has developed around Ethereum’s L1 layer. Early rollup thinking has been replaced by differentiated L2 networks, each with its own unique and valuable economic system, extending Ethereum’s core features to millions of users.

As Ethereum matures, the Foundation believes more measures are necessary to build a unified platform that fully leverages the unique advantages of the Ethereum system (L1 + L2). This includes enhancing the value proposition of L2, optimizing its adoption mechanisms to create more value for Ethereum, guiding the ecosystem toward a more secure, permissionless architecture, and simplifying the adoption process for users and institutions.

More importantly, building a strong Ethereum means driving technological improvements to reinforce and enhance Ethereum’s core features and its unique advantages.
