Layer-1s are still the backbone of crypto, but in 2025 their role is evolving. With Ethereum’s L2 ecosystem booming, modular blockchains on the rise and real-world adoption gaining momentum through stablecoins and tokenized assets, the question is no longer just about scalability. It’s about utility, users and where the next wave of growth will come from.
In this episode of Decentralize with Cointelegraph, we sit down with Algorand Foundation’s Chief Strategy and Marketing Officer Marc Vanlerberghe to explore the state of layer-1s today, the barriers to mainstream adoption, and the innovations that could define blockchain’s future.
