@base contributor #001; onchain cities w/ OAK & city3

an emphemeral L3 that last for a full event like a game or tournament. do a ton of onchain activity / let users earn tons of NFTs, then at the end, let them "export" their favorite things / summary NFTs back to L2 that live forever.

Honest question - what's the benefit of an "L3" here?

If the event span is shorter than the time it takes to play exit games, then why not just have a server and post selective data to L2 at the end of the event?

I get what you're saying. It's easier to use the same tool-suite if the shape of the backend is a "chain"

L3s don't have to be optimistic w/exit games. could do validity proofs. or could even just do a trusted commitment at the end from the operator. 

benefit is:

0. use L2 assets
1. write everything in EVM 
2. integrate seamlessly with other EVM tools
3. everything is open and onchain

it's gradually going to "just work"
