Layer 0 Blockchains ExplainedHello everybody.
Today i will explain What is Layer Zero Blockchains and How it work
and whats the difference betweem L1 and L0 ?
Lets go...
First take a look at The Scalability Trilemma :
the scalability trilemma is a series of trade-offs between decentralization, speed/scalability, and security
that one must make when designing a blockchain and constructing rules for its on-chain governance.
Centralization = Increased Speed, Decreased Security & Censorship Resistance
Decentralization = Decreased Speed, Increased Security & Censorship Resistance
It is very difficult , if not impossible, to achieve perfect decentralization without compromising scalability, and vice versa.
This is especially true on a monolithic blockchain where all the critical functions like transaction execution, consensus and data availability
(the ability to verify that all the data from new blocks has been published) are managed by a single network,
increasing the likelihood of congestion and making it much more difficult to scale.
A workaround to the scalability trilemma is to delegate the primary responsibility for these 3 functions to different independent blockchains.
This design ensures that the execution chain can be optimized for handling high TPS dapps like a DEX or play-to-earn game without worrying about decentralization.
A second chain can then be optimized for decentralization and serve as a final consensus layer for the execution chain to enable withdrawals to and anchor its data.
When it comes to scalability, layer 0 networks can help blockchain scale by increasing transaction throughput.
While transaction speed is typically measured in terms of TPS (transactions per second), transaction throughput looks at the total number of transactions that a network can handle at one time.
The Problem with Layer 1s
As the demand for Dapps increases and more capital flows into the space to support development, we are beginning to see the growing pains of layer 1 networks as they struggle to meet the needs of developers and end users who have opposing views on whether dapps should prioritize scalability, security or decentralization.
Layer 1 networks are built with a monolithic architecture. This means that the execution, consensus and data availability layers are all functioning within a single blockchain network. This stacked design places a strain on the system and results in the need for blockchains to comprise decentralization for security, or scalability for decentralization.
In addition, the lack of control over the underlying infrastructure that dapp developers build on top of has also been a cause of much frustration. Rising gas fees on the Ethereum network make all ethereum dapps too expensive to use, while unexpected downtime on the Solana network similarly makes all dapps on Solana also go offline.
Dapp developers must also make compromises in how they design their dapps in order to remain compatible with these L1 networks, and lack the ability to explore different consensus mechanisms or to experiment freely with token incentive models because consensus is a primary function of the L1 infrastructure layer. The overdependence on L1’s and difficult tradeoffs imposed by the scalability trilemma can only be remedied by creating a new base infrastructure that empowers developers to launch their own independent blockchains that can be optimized for different aspects of the scalability trilemma.
This base infrastructure is called layer 0, and it is the single most important component for helping blockchains and decentralized applications achieve limitless scalability while maintaining the highest possible levels of decentralization and censorship resistance.
What is a Layer 0 Blockchain?
A layer 0 is a type of protocol that enables developers to launch multiple layer 1 blockchains that can be designed to each serve a specific purpose and cater to 1 or 2 dimensions of the scalability trilemma as opposed to all 3.
These L1 networks can also be made to communicate with each other such that the end user can have the experience of using one blockchain while they are in fact using multiple.
Layer 0 (L0) networks are equipped with software development tool kits or SDKs that allow developers to launch their own blockchains, known as Layer 1s or L1s or sidechains, that are connected to the L0 mainchain but operate independently.
Diffrences Between Layer-0 vs. layer-1 blockchains

Price Action basics: Major trend reversal (the setup explained).Price Action basics: Major trend reversal (the setup explained).
Hello traders, today I have decided to make a small educational chart on how to trend infamous pattern major trend reversal.
A bull trend is a series of higher lows and highs, and a bear trend is a series of lower highs and lows. Trading a major trend reversal pattern is an attempt to enter at the start of a new trend, hoping that a series of trending highs and lows will follow.
Enjoy.
Trade safe,
Trader Leo,
GBPUSD identify support and resistanceHi traders,
this is a quick view at GBPUSD at the 1h chart at this weekend.
This chart show you the zones for possible price moves for the upcomming week.
I look forward to see more pressure to the downside for the moment.
So leave a comment what will be the next move.
Endless Debate Among Investors & Traders: Which One is Better?Have you ever seen the debate on any social media platforms between traders and investors?
On each side, Investors or Traders Claimed their techniques were far superior to the other because of the capability of earning more profit and a High Win Rate.
Endless Debate Between Investors and Traders never stops to this day. They are blinded by their false sense of superiority. They failed to recognize the similarity between them. Both were waiting for the ideal price level before buying stocks to get a capital gain or dividend (Money) with a bit different approach. The Investors determine the ideal price level to buy the stock by analyzing the Intrinsic value of the company and then buying the company below its Intrinsic Value (buying a Cheap Company and Selling it at its fair price). On the other hand, Traders will analyze the historical price movement and look for repeating patterns that may indicate a potential upside movement before buying the stock at the determined price level.
We have some similarities in method and purpose. If both sides could prove themselves profitable in the long run, why are we wasting our time to win the debate?
It would be best if we use your time wisely to improve your strategy than debating on Social Media Platforms.
Improving your strategy can make you more money!

📚 The Difference Between a Reversal and a Continuation!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, as known as theSignalyst.
Today I want to share an interesting pattern that I always use to speculate (to an extent) the next move of an asset after an impulse movement.
First , locate an impulse movement, bullish or bearish.
Second , wait for the correction movement to start.
📌In case of a bullish impulse:
1- if the correction movement is bearish , then expect a continuation bullish impulse to follow.
2- if the correction movement is bullish , then expect a reversal bearish movement to follow.
And vice versa...
📌In case of a bearish impulse:
3- if the correction movement is bullish , then expect a continuation bearish impulse to follow.
4- if the correction movement is bearish , then expect a reversal bullish movement to follow.
📉 We can clearly see this pattern is playing out nicely on BTC weekly chart . I have highlighted many example with its pattern number respectively. And you can always refer to the cheat sheet on the left inside the two circles.
If we apply the same logic to the current price action. Is BTC currently in a bearish correction as per our case #4?
🗒What do you think?
Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!
And always remember:
All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly!

**the holy grail in trading is taking advantage of 90 percent of traders** out there who aren't reading the market correctly and who learned it through know applying you know moving averages and oscillators
candle stick patterns things of nature which is great for longer term for trading but they apply that to day trading they call that price action when they say I'm trading price action by taking the close of a bar against a previous bar and going long or short, that's not price action that's trading an indicator candle sticks are an indicator what you need to understand is numbers into constitute make up that supply and demand within that time frame whether you looking 5 min, 15min candle whatever
there is all was competition so what you want to have your eye on is where the institution are being graded which is vwap and then standard deviation away from the vwap where you can better your average that's what we do we become speculators when price move away from vwap , if we are selling we obviously looking for resell as retrace back up towards view up or we could speculate and get long in as move two standard deviations or three standard deviations away from both of top side the bottom side so purpose behind having this information once again you have to know and ask your self-question everyday single day every single moment your about put on the train who was in control,
we see sellers have initiated trade to the sell side they are in control where is value, right know where is price relation to value are you selling and its 2 standard deviations away from vwap so this means its too cheap and there it is cheap to sell there other side that we will be buying and you don't want short when large traders are buying you you all was want to stay with who is in control. *there is 3 question all was have to* ask, who is in control, where is value, and where is price related with value?
a successful trader is an efficient trader and this is a mark of efficiency and first, they have to understand what we are looking at and what we are trying to do is we are not batting against professionals you can't win you will not win they have money than god so you might as well stop fighting it so you wait then you see with information clearly fast you have to understand what is it so the fact that large institutions can't sell everything they have, means they have to part piece it out in multiple prices or over time so you notice that over time when you looking at this information you will start to see that they start hitting it around the same price it will retrace up they hit it again that can tell you the size or large you know that can tell you the size of the fund and what other real purpose is you know what they trying to do and there nothing else out there in the retail space that shows you this type of efficiency nothing
there is all was competition so what you want to have your eye on is where the institution are being graded which is vwap and then standard deviation away from the vwap where you can better your average that's what we do we become speculators when price move away from vwap , if we are selling we obviously looking for resell as retrace back up towards view up or we could speculate and get long in as move two standard deviations or three standard deviations away from both of top side the bottom side so purpose behind having this information once again you have to know and ask your self-question everyday single day every single moment your about put on the train who was in control,
the holy grail is ending breaking through consistently you know being consistently profitable its all about managing risk fast it's not about trading more increasing your commissions or those fees its not about taking a larger position its all about managing your risk and managing your risk is all about getting in before 90% of other traders are getting you want get involved in the direction of larger player but you want to get ahead of everybody waiting for the bar to close so. you have valuble information learn of whether it's block trades or the blocks or the trade imbalance or stacked imbalances inventory levels or whatever you want to use your standard deviations
we want a trade market generated information, we don't want trade biases we don't want trade randomness random number, market does two things, the market is the distribution system that seeks out value and it goes to value to value from high value to lower value it gona do so in a form of being balanced or equal and imbalanced unfair right and when its imbalanced its going to spend less time so there no value there for it searching for value and what noft prepare for this information algorithm in the orderflow sequence tracker prepares this information chronologically so that when your in the trade if your finding inbalnce occur your you gonaa stay with that trader as soon as imbalance offset by other side then it become value market will pause and trade basically turn around a price level and either at that point going to continue or large trader come in and create that imbalance once again or it comes back to the value and so you want be able to see that information as soon as available soon as you see imbalance and bounce your risk become higher there no longer imbalance that's all price sets become a fair price therefore you lose your edge and trading is all about the edge your edge is the 90% losing traders out there
