All “true” L2s (Optimisitc, zk) use ETH as the currency to pay the fees. Polygon can’t do that because they want to maintain value of their own token. I just can’t see any future in that.
- youdumbaf 5y agoI think zkSync use other tokens to pay the fees
- yourabstraction 5y agoI think long term we may see tokens for the various rollups. Arbitrum and zksync are going to launch in somewhat centralized ways, and as they decentralize over time they'll need to provide incentives to network participants and to support decentralized governance. Transaction sequencing within a rollup will become decentralized over time to help deal with front running and MEV, and it would make sense to incentivise sequencers with a network token, which also gives them some say in governance.
