## Decentralizing rollups {#decentralizing-rollups}

[Rollups](/layer-2) are already scaling Ethereum. A [rich ecosystem of rollup projects](https://l2beat.com/scaling/tvl) is enabling users to transact quickly and cheaply, with a range of security guarantees. However, rollups have been bootstrapped using centralized sequencers (computers that do all the transaction processing and aggregation before submitting them to Ethereum). This is vulnerable to censorship, because the sequencer operators can be sanctioned, bribed or otherwise compromised. At the same time, [rollups vary](https://l2beat.com) in the way they validate incoming data. The best way is for "provers" to submit [fraud proofs](/glossary/#fraud-proof) or validity proofs, but not all rollups are there yet. Even those rollups that do use validity/fraud proofs use a small pool of known provers. Therefore, the next critical step in scaling Ethereum is to distribute responsibility for running sequencers and provers across more people.
