Layer 2

Layer 2 Launch Checklist

Layer 2 teams often waste attention because launch activity starts before the narrative, channel order, and conversion path are aligned. This checklist is designed to keep the launch commercially coherent.

Pre-launch strategy

A layer 2 launch should line up positioning, audience, and proof before creators or community are activated.

  • Define the commercial objective before pushing distribution harder.
  • State the audience clearly: ecosystem teams, developer relations leads, and community operators.
  • Pressure-test the main market pain points: technical messaging that does not travel, fragmented community attention, difficulty turning infrastructure stories into demand.
  • Decide which Fracas service line owns the execution path.
  • Turn the offer into one clear narrative the market can repeat.

Channel sequencing

The right launch sequence prevents overlap waste and gives each channel a defined job.

  • Lead with the channels most relevant to layer 2 buyers: X, Discord, YouTube.
  • Pair creator distribution with community follow-through instead of treating them separately.
  • Make sure launch content has a single next action tied to the commercial goal.
  • Tie post-launch reporting to demand signals, not only reach.
