Definition ∞ A Layer Two bridge facilitates the transfer of assets and data between a Layer Two scaling solution and its underlying Layer One blockchain. This technology enables users to move digital assets to a Layer Two network for faster, cheaper transactions. It also permits the return of these assets to the main chain. Bridges are essential for interoperability and scalability.
Context ∞ Layer Two bridges are a prominent subject in blockchain news, as scaling solutions gain adoption to address network congestion. Discussions often revolve around the security models and efficiency of different bridge implementations. Ensuring the safety and reliability of these cross-chain mechanisms remains a critical area of development and concern.
