IMO the best layer 1 is the internet computer because:

*Users don't pay gas fees, DApp developers do

*It is infinitely scaleable with subnets

*The potential for profit is high as it has fallen significantly from its all time high due to a market downturn

*Staking rewards of up to 18%

*It's technology means that it is not just a normal L1 but that it can host websites on top of its blockchain and make Web2 sites into Web3 ones

*It incorporates biometric ID to ensure you never get hacked or have your identity stolen again
