That's a really good point. It seems like a constant tightrope walk between regulatory compliance and maintaining the core tenets of decentralization and user privacy that L2s aim to enhance. I'm curious if anyone's seen any innovative approaches to this that don't just push the burden onto the user.

It's a tough balancing act. Most L2s prioritize speed and low cost, which often conflicts with the data-intensive nature of robust KYC/AML. I'm not seeing many compelling solutions that don't involve significant centralization.
