Permissionless Exit

Definition

Permissionless exit refers to the ability of participants in a blockchain system or layer-2 solution to withdraw their assets without requiring approval from any centralized authority. This feature is crucial for maintaining decentralization and preventing censorship or asset freezes. It ensures users can always access their funds, even if a network operator becomes unresponsive or malicious. A permissionless exit mechanism upholds user autonomy.
