Segregated Witness (SegWit)
Riccardo Dondi
Segregated Witness (SegWit) is a protocol upgrade enhancing blockchain scalability and efficiency by separating transaction signatures from transaction data.
blockchain scalability
Polygon
Polygon enhances blockchain scalability and interoperability, addressing Ethereum's high fees and slow speeds, making it essential for efficient crypto applications.
Plasma Chain
"Plasma Chain" enhances blockchain scalability and efficiency by offloading transactions to child chains, reducing fees and maintaining security through periodic state commitments.
Plasma
Plasma is a Layer 2 scaling solution for blockchain networks, enhancing scalability by offloading transactions to child chains, reducing load and costs.
Payment Channel
A payment channel allows multiple cryptocurrency transactions off the main blockchain, enhancing speed, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of transactions.
Parachain
Parachains are parallel blockchains that enhance scalability, interoperability, and specialization, integral to networks like Polkadot, ensuring efficient decentralized ecosystems.
Optimistic Rollup
Optimistic Rollups enhance blockchain efficiency by processing transactions off-chain, reducing gas fees and delays, while ensuring security through fraud proofs.
Micropayment Channel
A micropayment channel enables numerous small transactions off the blockchain, reducing congestion and fees, with only opening and closing balances recorded on-chain.
Lightning Network
The Lightning Network is a second-layer solution for faster, cheaper transactions on blockchain platforms like Bitcoin, using off-chain payment channels.
Layer 2 Solutions
Layer 2 solutions enhance blockchain scalability and efficiency by offloading transactions from the main chain, reducing fees, and improving speed.
