EIP-4844Also called Proto-danksharding, it introduced blob-carrying transactions to process large amounts of data at lower cost and laid the groundwork for later scaling upgrades.
Layer 1 and Layer 2Layer 1 is the base blockchain network, while Layer 2 is a scaling network built on top of it that can handle high-frequency activity and reduce usage costs.
Layer 2 SolutionA scaling protocol built on an existing blockchain that improves scalability through mechanisms such as state channels, sidechains, or rollups.
Lightning NetworkA channel-based scaling network built on Bitcoin and a common example of a State Channel solution.
PlasmaA blockchain scaling framework that uses layered child chains to handle substantial processing and reduce the load on the main chain.
RollupsA scaling solution that batches multiple off-chain transactions and submits compressed data or cryptographic proofs to the main chain.
layer-2A scaling approach built on top of an underlying blockchain to reduce congestion on the main network, lower fees, and accelerate interactions.
off-the-main-chainA scaling approach that moves most processing off the main chain and redistributes it among a series of smaller functional chains.

L2 blockchainA scaling network built on top of a base blockchain.
Horizontal ScalingAdding or removing network nodes as demand changes to adjust processing capacity.
RollupA scaling approach that processes transactions on an execution layer and publishes the resulting data to a Layer 1 network.
