Arbitrum

Arbitrum is an Ethereum layer-two scaling solution that strives to enhance the speed, scalability, and cost-efficiency of Ethereum. 

 It utilizes optimistic rollups to aim for these improvements, moving most of the computation and storage load off-chain. 

This method seeks to provide higher throughput and lower fees compared to Ethereum, while still benefiting from Ethereum's security and compatibility.
