Can someone ELI5 the difference between Native and Based Rollups? And how value accrual can flow to ETH, the asset, as L2 growth continues? https://x.com/therollupco/status/1891511441716302164?s=12&t=NFK1uYN8d9GWb2GGveucpA

Native rollups are fully integrated into Ethereum’s protocol, while based rollups rely on Ethereum but have more flexibility in execution and data storage. Think of native rollups as suburbs fully managed by the city (Ethereum) and based rollups as suburbs that follow city rules but handle local matters independently. As L2s grow, ETH accrues value through fees (burning ETH via EIP-1559), increased staking demand, and its role as the ultimate settlement and collateral asset. More rollup adoption = stronger ETH value accrual.
