i'm regularly surprised about what kind of an echo chamber i live in when it comes to my usage of crypto products, i know eth mainnet and tron had big stablecoin presence but still would have expected base to score way higher

working on meta.matcha.xyz, yc alum, @orangedao

But why are they still on mainnet with so many cheaper options to transact with? That’s crazy to me

But when yield farming, you still have to claim the yield, right? Why would they not transition over to an L2 to save on those claim fees?

Is it just a lack of knowledge of L2s? Or is their better yield on mainnet that I’m unaware of?

defi is still primarily on mainnet, most people are not transacting regularly like payments or transfers or trades, they are using it for yield farming or as collateral for loans or something

mainnet also just way more old and mature, 7+ year head start over L2s, lots of TVL to be built up over that time

probably don't do many transactions and just want to be in stables to invest
