Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko (toly) criticizes permissionless nature of some L2s/rollups. He defines permissionless as users participating in any protocol layer with own resources, no third-party approval. Yakovenko applies this to L2s, stating users can't independently run sequencers for Base or Hyperliquid. He sees this as a similar issue to what he's identified with other L2s, implying a lack of true permissionless access.
