Layer 2 Security Enhancements

Architecture

Layer 2 security enhancements serve as cryptographic safeguards built atop primary blockchain networks to mitigate risks associated with off-chain transaction processing. These frameworks utilize fraud proofs or zero-knowledge proofs to ensure that state transitions remain consistent with the underlying layer one consensus. Robust design patterns here prevent the monopolization of sequencers while maintaining the integrity of data availability protocols.
