The Case for Specialization: What the Ethereum L2 Roadmap Means for Enterprises

Karl Dot argues that enterprises can get customization and control from their own Ethereum L2 chain without giving up interoperability, and that the Ethereum ecosystem is further along in solving this than most people realize. The article presents Optimism's OP Enterprise as the tool for this, saying it offers modular options such as block builder policies, pluggable ZK and fault proofs, and flexible data availability. It names Kraken (Ink), OKX (X Layer) and Sony (Soneium) as examples of companies that have built on the Optimism stack, which it says has more than 50 chains in production securing over $16B in value.
