Michael Sutton On X: We currently are trying to avoid such approaches where L1 needs to manage L2-specific data (i.e., some form of registry per L2 subnet). If we link back to the L2 gas discussion, the intention there was to use the *same constant* for limiting gas limit per block per L2, and have… pic.twitter.com/gvkd2tP8pS— Michael Sutton January 16, 2025


**Michael Sutton Discusses L1 and L2 Data Management in Blockchain Development**

In a recent tweet, Michael Sutton, a distinguished Distributed Systems Researcher and Developer known for his contributions as one of the core developers of Kaspa, addressed critical issues surrounding Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (L2) interactions in blockchain architectures.

Sutton emphasized the need to avoid approaches that require L1 to manage L2-specific data, such as establishing a registry for each L2 subnet. This caution stems from the complexities and potential inefficiencies that could arise if L1 were encumbered with managing detailed data from various L2 solutions. Instead, he’s advocating for streamlined systems that allow L1 and L2 to operate more independently.

In the same discussion, Sutton referred to previous talks about gas limits for L2 transactions, highlighting the intention to maintain a uniform gas constant across different L2 solutions. This would ensure a consistent approach to transaction processing and resource allocation, which is fundamental for achieving scalability and efficiency within the Kaspa framework.

Sutton’s insights reflect ongoing efforts within the Kaspa development community to refine blockchain architecture and promote effective interoperability between layers. Such developments are crucial for fostering a robust and sustainable blockchain ecosystem.
