Why Your Company Almost Certainly Doesn’t Need Its Own L2 Blockchain

Layer-2 mania sweeps corporate boardrooms—but most implementations solve problems that don't exist.

The Cost Illusion

Building proprietary L2 chains burns capital that could fund actual innovation. Development teams, security audits, and infrastructure maintenance drain millions before the first transaction settles.

Technical Debt Trap

Custom L2s create vendor lock-in and compatibility nightmares. Interoperability becomes an afterthought while competitors leverage established ecosystems.

Regulatory Headaches

Suddenly your finance department becomes a crypto compliance team. Tokenomics models that looked brilliant in whitepapers collide with securities regulations.

Most enterprises would achieve better results deploying on existing L2 solutions—saving time, capital, and countless meetings about bridge vulnerabilities.

Because nothing says 'innovation' like spending $20 million to recreate what Polygon solved three years ago—just with your logo on it.
