The cryptocurrency market is gradually heating up, and the industry is waiting for the next wave of application breakthroughs. But there's a persistent issue that hasn't been fully resolved—blockchain scalability bottlenecks.

Every time the market heats up, network congestion and Gas fees surge. New users are discouraged just by looking at these costs. Imagine having to wait several minutes for each transaction and paying a hefty fee—who would want to use such an experience? The so-called large-scale applications become just empty words under these conditions.

Recently, I’ve started paying attention to some Layer 2 solutions. The market offers a variety of sidechains and scalability solutions, but some technical approaches are truly worth exploring in depth. For example, those dedicated to creating high-throughput, low-latency transaction environments aim to fundamentally solve the mainnet performance bottleneck while maintaining decentralization.

Now, imagine real user scenarios: high-frequency micro-payments, on-chain games requiring real-time interaction, complex DeFi strategy operations—all of which need a stable and efficient underlying infrastructure. If each operation is slow and costs an outrageous amount, these applications will forever remain niche. Conversely, network solutions capable of handling massive interactions are precisely designed to change this situation.

That’s why we must keep a close eye on the progress of these technologies. Without solving scalability issues, the explosive growth of Web3 will always be just one step away.
