Celo marks its five-year anniversary with a major transition from a standalone Layer 1 to an Ethereum Layer 2 rollup—strengthening its alignment with Ethereum’s ecosystem while advancing its mission of global financial inclusion and prosperity. The shift supports scalability, sustainability, and easier interoperability. Celo’s “Vision 2030” lays out an ambitious blueprint: enabling over one billion users and building a trillion-dollar onchain economy dominated by stablecoin-driven payments and financial access.
