Ethereum Layer Two refers to scaling solutions built atop the main Ethereum blockchain to improve its transaction capacity and reduce costs. These protocols process transactions off the primary chain, then periodically submit aggregated proofs or data back to Ethereum for final settlement. Examples include rollups, sidechains, and state channels, each offering distinct approaches to scaling. Layer Two solutions address the mainnet’s limitations by offloading computational burden while inheriting its security guarantees.
Context
The development and deployment of Ethereum Layer Two solutions are central to the network’s long-term scalability strategy and its ability to support a wider array of decentralized applications. Debates often concern the security models, decentralization levels, and user experience implications of various Layer Two technologies. News frequently covers the progress and adoption rates of these scaling solutions, highlighting their impact on the Ethereum ecosystem.
