Ethereum has faced scalability issues due to increased transaction volume, leading to rising fees and transaction processing delays.

Many Ethereum Layer 2 projects do not prioritize close integration with Ethereum, resulting in decentralization and centralization concerns.

Taiko aims to be a true Ethereum Layer 2 by maintaining full interoperability with Ethereum, prioritizing the decentralization of sequencers, and providing full support to developers.

Taiko has made significant progress in addressing Ethereum's scalability issues through its mainnet launch and community engagement, while adhering to its core principles.
