**Optimistic Rollups**
----------------------

Optimistic Rollups are a Layer 2 scaling solution designed to improve the efficiency of blockchain networks, particularly Ethereum. They are built on the idea of "rollups," which are a class of Layer 2 solutions that aim to handle transactions off-chain while still providing the security of the underlying blockchain.
