#Plasma chain architecture is a framework for creating scalable blockchain applications. Here's a breakdown:
- Root Chain: The main blockchain (e.g., Ethereum) that provides security and finality.
- Child Chain (Plasma Chain): A separate blockchain that handles transactions and computation, anchored to the Root Chain.
- Operators: Validators or nodes that manage the Child Chain and submit commitments to the Root Chain.
Key essentials:
- Scalability: High transaction throughput and low latency.
- Security: Leverages the Root Chain's security.
- Data Availability: Ensuring data is accessible for validation and dispute resolution.
- Exit mechanisms: Allowing users to exit the Plasma Chain and return assets to the Root Chain.
