Welcome to @vitalik.eth, co-founder of Ethereum!  

He’s kindly agreed to do an AMA. Reply with your questions. :)

Yo @vitalik.eth, I think light clients are really neat because I don’t have a full node to run (yet), and would love to use a light clients for my day-to-day interactions.

What is preventing light clients like the portal network clients for example from being production ready?

They're getting there! I think the next step is (i) integrating them by default into wallets, and (ii) extending them to cover L2s and not just L1.

Though (ii) only makes sense once the L2s take off or at least limit their training wheels so that the underlying thing is decentralized in the first place.

Thanks for your time and see you onchain!
