Optimiums Validiums

Definition

Optimiums Validiums refers to a category of Ethereum scaling solutions that combine aspects of Optimistic Rollups and Validiums. These Layer 2 constructions aim to enhance transaction throughput and reduce costs by processing transactions off-chain, similar to rollups. They utilize zero-knowledge proofs for validity like Validiums but may also incorporate fraud proofs or other mechanisms from Optimistic Rollups for data availability or security. The goal is to achieve high scalability while maintaining a strong connection to Ethereum’s security guarantees.
