I'm exploring the concept of Ethereum and its relation to Layer 2 solutions in the blockchain technology. I want to clarify if Ethereum itself can be considered as a Layer 2 or if it stands as the base layer, and other technologies are built upon it as Layer 2.

Unlike the main Ethereum blockchain, often referred to as Layer 1, Layer 2 solutions operate on separate blockchains. These secondary blockchains are designed to complement and expand the functionality of Ethereum.

By leveraging Layer 2, Ethereum aims to address issues related to scalability and transaction throughput. The main Ethereum blockchain can become congested, leading to higher fees and slower transaction times.
