▌What is Rollup?

Rollup is a way of processing transactions on a Layer 2 protocol that frees up valuable space in the base layer. Rollup folds transactions one by one on the second layer, sometimes dozens of times, then rolls them together before sending the data back to Layer 1. There are two main types of Rollups, optimistic and zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs. Optimistic Rollup is a fairly clear term. This means RollupRuns with an "optimistic" approach, assuming transactions are valid unless proven wrong by the validator. They will check the validity of the transaction only if there is a dispute. ZK Rollup certifies transactions without revealing any transaction data. Therefore, it is called "zero knowledge". ZK Rollup provides instant finality because cryptographically proven data is guaranteed to be valid. In many ways, Rollup is to your standard blockchain transaction what Calzone is to your average pizza slice. By scrolling, you can put more stuff in.
