Trustless Verification Layer

Definition

A trustless verification layer is a component within a decentralized system designed to validate transactions or computations without relying on any single trusted third party. This layer utilizes cryptographic proofs and decentralized consensus mechanisms to ensure the integrity and correctness of operations. It is essential for maintaining the security and autonomy of blockchain networks and layer-2 scaling solutions. This architecture eliminates the need for intermediaries, enhancing censorship resistance.
