Scroll's First Step Towards Decentralization
Scroll is launching its $SCR token, which is an important step toward becoming a decentralized platform. They’re creating a total of 1 billion of these tokens, and we’ll soon have the chance to get some through Binance Launchpool and an airdrop on October 22, 2024.
SCR enables us to decentralize Scroll’s governance, provers, and sequencer in our development roadmap, thus playing a critical long-term role in Scroll’s core protocol design.

Importantly, SCR opens up new design spaces and unlocks features that can improve user experience as…
But what does this mean for us? Scroll aims to make it easier for everyone to access and use decentralized applications and services, which are safer and fairer. With the $SCR token, the community can participate in decision-making about how Scroll operates. As Scroll builds its infrastructure, this token will be crucial for enabling decentralized governance and enhancing the overall user experience. This is an exciting development that brings us closer to a more open and accessible internet!
Aztec’s Commitment to Privacy and Decentralization
Aztec has announced its commitment to merging privacy with decentralization, unveiling its roadmap for a fully decentralized and privacy-preserving network. The recent release highlights key developments, including the launch of the Aztec Devnet and the introduction of a unique programming language called Noir. These innovations are set to empower developers to integrate privacy features into their applications more easily.
1/ Aztec is committed to bringing privacy and decentralization together.

Arbitrum's Growing Ecosystem
Event Horizon has officially launched on Arbitrum, marking its entry as an L3 blockchain in the Arbitrum Orbit ecosystem. This integration is set to enhance settlement speeds on their decentralized exchange (DEX) by 8x, providing users with a faster and more secure trading experience. With a user-friendly interface and no KYC requirements, traders can easily access the platform and enjoy features like copy trading, which is currently in development.
Event Horizon lands on @arbitrum ! 🚀

Ethereum L1 Sees Major Inflows and Outflows
In an intriguing observation, 83% of the value that migrated from Ethereum Layer 1 to the largest Layer 2s this year has made its way back to L1. As of now, the total outflows to Arbitrum, Base, zkSync, Optimism, and Starknet stand at $22.8 billion, with inflows amounting to $18.8 billion. This trend suggests that while users experiment with Layer 2s for yield farming and services, they still favor the security and decentralization that Ethereum L1 offers. It raises questions about the future utility of L2s as users balance the benefits of both layers.
👀 83% of the value that left Ethereum L1 for the largest L2s this year has been moved back to the L1.

Total YTD *outflows* to @arbitrum, @base, @zksync , @Optimism, and @Starknet = $22.8b
Total YTD *inflows* from the same chains = $18.8b.
