What are Layer 2 Protocols for Blockdaemon?

Layer 2 protocols are blockchain protocols that are built on top of an existing blockchain network. A layer 2 protocol is designed to improve the scaling problems and transaction speeds and fees that layer 1 blockchain networks and protocols face. Decentralized applications can be built on Layer 2 protocols, and layer 2 protocols interact with layer 1 protocols in order to improve efficiency and overall user experience. Compare and read user reviews of the best Layer 2 Protocols for Blockdaemon currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.

    Polkadot

    Polkadot

    Polkadot

    Polkadot is a blockchain network being built to enable Web 3.0, a decentralized and fair internet where users control their own data and markets prosper from network efficiency and security. Polkadot was founded in 2016 by Gavin Wood, former Co-Founder and CTO of Ethereum. Polkadot’s technology addresses the major issues that have stymied blockchain adoption in recent years. Polkadot’s software development toolkit, Substrate, created by Parity Technologies, makes it easy for blockchain developers to build their own custom, fit-for-use blockchains. Polkadot also enables multiple blockchains to communicate between each other, allows for easy upgradeability, and introduces “shared security”, a plug-and-play network security model that allows developers to focus on the technology and avoid spending time and resources recruiting a set of operators to run a new blockchain.

    SKALE

    SKALE

    SKALE

    Run your dApps in a decentralized modular cloud built for real-world needs and configured for your requirements. SKALE Networks's modular protocol is one of the first of its kind to allow developers to easily provision highly configurable blockchains, which provide the benefits of decentralization without compromising on computation, storage, or security. Elastic blockchains are highly performant, decentralized, configurable, Ethereum compatible, and use the latest breakthroughs in modern cryptography to provide provable security. The standard for security in distributed systems, BFT guarantees that the network can reach consensus even when up to one third of participants are malicious. Following the same model as the Internet, this protocol recognizes latencies of nodes and the network, allowing messages to take an indefinite period of time to deliver. BLS Threshold Signatures enable efficient interchain communication and support randomness in node allocation.

    Astar Network
    Astar Network is a scalable and interoperable infrastructure for Web3.0. Since Astar Network is built with Parity’s Substrate framework, it can be a future Polkadot parachain that also acts as a scalable smart contract platform. The Polkadot Relaychain, by design, does not support smart contracts. This allows Astar the opportunity to fill in this gap. Scalability is obviously one of the most crucial demands dApp developers have. Ideally, the developers can build whatever applications on Astar Network without having to consider its scalability. Astar Network is an open-source project. There are a lot of opportunities to get involved in our ecosystem. Astar Network is an open-source project anyone can join, develop, and modify. Astar Network's mission is to provide a scalable, interoperable, and decentralized application platform that defines and realizes the new form of the web, Web3.0.

    Ava Protocol

    Ava Protocol

    Ava Protocol

    Ava Protocol is an event-driven EigenLayer Actively Validated Service (AVS) that enables seamless autonomous transactions for Ethereum and beyond. It empowers developers to enhance crypto transactions with intelligent automation, enhanced privacy, effortless composability, and significant cost savings. Key features include intelligent automation, where transactions execute autonomously based on predefined conditions, and enhanced privacy through advanced Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) protection mechanisms, safeguarding against front-running and privacy breaches. The protocol also offers composability, allowing developers to combine smart contract calls without writing code, and cost efficiency, achieving up to 90% savings on gas fees. Ava Protocol's modular technology stack comprises a customizable Studio for designing automated strategies, a robust SDK for integrating private transactions, and the EigenLayer AVS network powered by restaked ETH.
