I want someone to build a fully centralized L2. There's a bridge that lets you get in and out to ETH. But once you are in, its literally boxes on AWS running the EVM at full speed. You get near zero fees, infinite scalability and the ability to exit and "decentralize" your money, but you are trusting the operator while you are in. I think there are some use cases for crypto that would benefit from this

Isn't that just a CEX?

The key point is "runs the EVM"

Fair enough! But it still feels funny that it's probably an easier task for a CEX to spin up a centralized EVM database and offer an RPC endpoint to it to their users, than it would for today's existing L2 codebases to spin themselves out to that kind of model.
