I mean what we ultimately need for Bitcoin is we don't I actually I'm not that convinced that we need to take you know

everything that etheorem is done and put it on to Bitcoin like we don't need all of the ethereal stuff to exist on Bitcoin I don't need all of the Ethereum stuff to exist on Bitcoin. I don't think so, but what I do know that we do need, we just need a way for me to be able to send Bitcoin to you in a scalable and private fashion just so that

Bitcoin as a currency works.

Welcome to Bankless where today we explore the frontier of Bitcoin Layer 2s.

This is Ryan Sean Adams. I'm here with David Hoffman and we're here to help you become more

bankless.

The big question, can Bitcoin scale through layer two

is the way Ethereum has?

I think it's the most important question

that Bitcoin builders are facing today,

and it's hard.

There's a lot of noise out there. We've got to find out

what's real, what's narrative, what's a scam, what the future actually looks

like for Bitcoin. That's why we're having this episode today with Eric Wall. He's on

today and he's got the most thorough take that David and I have heard on this subject.

He's the perfect guest for this because not only does Eric tell it like it is,

he also understands both Ethereum and Bitcoin.

So a few topics we get into in the episode.

Number one, the Ordinals and Ruins Awakening,

why that is upon us and what effect it's had.

Number two, why lightning failed.

Number three, the state of Bitcoin layer two's. Where are they today?
