CZ talks about the dispute between L1 and L2, AI projects should help the AI economy rather than focus on public chain development

03/06/2025·3MPANews reported on March 6 that Binance founder CZ posted a statement to discuss the choice between L1 and L2 of AI projects. He pointed out that the core of AI projects is to use blockchain to optimize the AI economy rather than build a better public chain.
• L1 (Layer 1 blockchain) provides higher sovereignty and decentralization, but requires complete nodes and validators to run, which is a lot of work and may form an isolated ecosystem.
• L2 (second-layer blockchain) eliminates the complexity of maintaining infrastructure and can use existing tools such as DEX and derivatives markets to lose almost no value to L1 (such as ETH).
CZ believes that L1 and L2 have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the key lies in how to provide a better economic and application environment for AI projects.
