ENSv2 launches on Ethereum mainnet instead of planned L2

  • —ENSv2 went live on L1 on Oct. 27, nine months after Namechain was scrapped
  • —The upgrade was originally slated for ENS's own Namechain rollup
  • —ENSv2 is the biggest upgrade in Ethereum Name Service's history
Why it matters: Apps returning to Ethereum mainnet reinforce its role as the base layer for onchain services and temper the bet on L2 scaling.
