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.

Best way to run a "standing" development chain?

Ethereum L2 Optimism Sees 500% Growth in Active Users Since July
Polygon is crushing it in their own right. The best business development skills in the game. They have a multitude of ZK solutions on the way with only Polygon Edge being live right now. Definitely a big player, more so when their ZK solutions are on the mainnet.

DOGECOIN DAILY DISCUSSION - Keep your coins safe!
Great thread anon. Didn't even know people were still using paper wallets. It seems Dogechain is one of the first proper use cases for polygon Edge. Most people don't seem to realize that the Dogechain is going to be built on Polygon. I recommend you boys read this article on what Polygon Edge actually is.

What is the best way to learn ethereum?
read Mastering Ethereum. If you are looking to make your own sidechain, I'd also look at Polygon Edge. It's much easier to understand what is happening under the hood there.
-
I don’t know if any of you is aware how underpriced MATIC is at this time. For me, this is a no brainer right now.
(live) Polygon Edge gives people the ability to deploy their own blockchains out of the box, and allow easy interaction between the user's chain and Polygon POS & Ethereum.

Layer 2 Bitcoin
Ethereum has this with Polygon and other Layer 2 solutions

MATIC transfer to MetaMask not showing up in wallet but is on Etherscan
That did it. Thanks! Went to polygon.technology and used their Plasma Bridge after adding the ERC20 Matic token to my MM. The extra $100 in gas fees sucked but at least I got it where it needs to be.

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.
