I’ve been an investor. I’m bullish the Agglayer in concept but understand it takes a lot to onboard everyone. Also no guarantees it becomes THE interop solution like they envision.

Polygon POS is pretty popular and set to become a zkevm validium at some point and Polygons zkevm rollup is out but doesn’t seem like many people use it, is that right? I’m just curious what people think about it as an investment. I could put my money elsewhere. I don’t actually use crypto everyday so I don’t have a firsthand understanding of what makes these chains successful. Not sure polygon pos switching to L2 will really change anything in terms of money coming in but not really sure how it works.

Arbitrum just hit 20 billion TVL, which is a record, so I don’t see why people wouldn’t invest there. Doesn’t it seem obvious to invest here, or am I missing something? It has the highest TVL of any layer 2 by a long shot. But I don’t always understand what makes these coins move (besides memes in the case of Solana lol). What is driving this activity on arbitrum anyhow?

Also Optimism’s TVL is around 9 billion. I believe polygon POS is around 4-5 billion.

I know arbitrum and optimism aren’t ZK rollups, which are apparently the future, but that doesn’t mean it can’t just switch its technology eventually, and when it does, I don’t see why it can’t overtake polygon in market cap, right? Unless that’s not how it works? Polygon does have the agglayer though.

What do people think? I know I’m missing something about my assessment which is why I’m here. I could invest in both I guess but just curious and trying to understand the future of crypto!

I know there’s superchain too so if people wanna talk about that in this discussion would be happy to hear it

Thanks for your informed perspective!
