Rollups are a blockchain scaling solution designed to boost throughput by aggregating multiple transactions into one. By processing numerous transactions off-chain and then submitting a consolidated version or proof to the main chain, they alleviate congestion, enabling higher transaction volumes and reduced fees. There are two primary types: Optimistic Rollups, which assume transactions are valid until challenged, and zk-Rollups, which utilize cryptographic proofs called zk-SNARKs to confirm transaction validity. By enhancing scalability without compromising security, rollups are increasingly seen as a pivotal element in the evolution of blockchain technology, especially for platforms like Ethereum facing capacity constraints.
