Sony's Ethereum Layer 2 platform, Soneium, attempts to restrict meme coins to prevent unauthorized intellectual property usage. However, users have found a way around these measures, highlighting the decentralized nature of the platform. Luca Donno, an L2beat researcher, managed to bypass the block by leveraging L1 transactions, but this option is only available to skilled programmers. Vitalik Buterin sees this as a demonstration of the benefits of launching an Ethereum L2 and businesses' ability to choose the level of control given to users. Soneium acknowledges the imperfections of its rules but aims to build frameworks that businesses can trust while preserving user sovereignty. Sota Watanabe, CEO of Startale Labs, recognizes the difficulty in building such a chain and the importance of protecting intellectual property rights.
