Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

How to program with CKB: Layer 1
ckb-sdk is a collection of libraries which allow you to interact with a local or remote CKB node by using JSON-RPC. You should get familiar with ckb transaction structure and JSON-RPC before using it. Now ckb-sdk is implemented by the following programming languages: JavaScript/TypeScript,Ruby,Swift,Java and Go.

Hello fellow Kadena investors. Which crypto project (or projects) is most similar to kadena and why? Doesn’t need to be POW, no restrictions to this question. Just curious as to which project(s) would be most comparable to Kadena.
This one? https://www.nervos.org

Starting to waiver on Nervos’ future
https://github.com/nervosnetwork/neuron/releasesL Plenty of work ongoing No.. no captains on this ship.. just a bunch of self-organizing geeks https://github.com/nervosnetwork/neuron/releases Light client is on testnet

Dear Nervos, is anyone home?
simply put: - CKB will usher in the 2nd hard fork https://github.com/nervosnetwork/ckb/discussions/3827 - Light client, the code is done, after a round of audits, some bugs are being fixed - Open transaction, in progress - New syscall Spawn, in order to facilitate mutual calls between contracts to increase the syscall - RISC-V A extension, new mops, can optimize CKB-VM performance -CKB Tools - Kuai, new framework in development - Nexus, browser extension wallet, this is a long-term needed but missing link in the development of CKB dapp, hoping to promote the development of UTXO dapp protocol through Nexus - Axon, CKB L2, Staking and IBC support in development - Godwoken, already relatively stable, the next step is to consider how to integrate with Axon, because both are evm-compatible - Forcerelay, the next phase of Forcebridge, a decentralized relay network, is still early days

The Big Number 3
Nervos is trying to do it. I hope they can succeed.

IAMM Network - Where Social Meets NFTs Powered by Godwoken Blockchain & Lens Protocol
Hey everyone! It is time for you to hear about IAMM, the Social NFT Network that's currently being developed and soon to release it's public testnet version. More than just another social network or NFT platform – it's a community-driven platform that combines the power of Godwoken blockchain, a layer 2 Optimistic Rollup scaling solution on the Nervos Network, with Lens’ decentralized and modular social protocol.

Spot Bitcoin ETF receives official approval from the SEC
A real layer 2 would look more like something built on Ethereum (can see all its L2s at https://l2beat.com).
Essentially it's a separate network that every few minutes takes every transaction and compresses it into a data blob that it saves on Ethereum along with a proof that the computation was done correctly. The Ethereum L1 nodes then only need to verify the proof instead of re-executing all transactions that happened on the L2.
With this design users can go straight from an exchange like Coinbase onto the L2 and never need to use Ethereum, and fees are 10x cheaper because of the data compression. Fees will soon be 100x cheaper as Ethereum is adding extra space just for these L2 data blobs that is much cheaper than normal Ethereum data space.
Unfortunately it can't be done on Bitcoin right now because Bitcoin nodes don't have Turing complete scripting and so can't verify the proof that an L2 posts to Bitcoin.

Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2023)
We are running & maintaining the site (https://l2beat.com). Our work is to look on the current Layer 2 deployments on Ethereum & show risks and statistics to the end user. Very interesting thing is that we are a public goods company trying to stay as objective as possible in the industry full of subjectivity. What I mostly like in this job is that I am a part of the project shaping how it looks, not only mindlessly taking someones orders.

Should Ethereum be okay with enshrining more things in the protocol?
Ecosystem fragmentation is not necessarily a bad thing. It leads to rapid development through competition. Different L2s are competing against each other to provide the best service and that has lead to a cambrian explosion of solutions. It's also a very effective way to explore the solution space, I'm sure many will disappear, others will get eaten, and at some point there will be consolidation. But all this seems like a good approach early on when tackling complex problems for which the ideal trade-offs are not entirely obvious. Explore as much of the solution space as possible and trim later on.
A perhaps more pernicious problem is liquidity fragmentation. Moving assets between L2s is a tedious friction that leads to fragmentation of liquidity. In that respect, zero-knowledge rollups present a big advantage as you can share liquidity between them as long as they share some zk-circuits that allow to prove statements to both chains. All this is being very actively worked on. And the technology behind it is short of fascinating. The typical HN audience would have a huge hard-on for it, if they didn't have such a strong preconception against crypto-anything.
If anyone is curious to learn more about L2s a good starting point is here: https://l2beat.com/
And if you want to see Ethereum scaling progress you can check it here: https://l2beat.com/scaling/activity
The next major upgrade to the protocol, slated for late this year or early 2024 (date is not finalized yet), will focus on scalability by making L2 activity veeery cheap.

Are Layer 2s as secure as Layer 1?
In addition to what others said, I always find https://l2beat.com useful to see a summary of the security assumptions behind the various L2s. Currently, all L2 need to be trusted to some extent as they are still quite in development.
