On May 14, Metis will launch the Andromeda upgrade, marking a significant step forward in enhancing decentralization and security for the Layer 2 network. This upgrade includes:
+ Fraud Proofs: Allows anyone in the network to challenge invalid transactions or states, ensuring the integrity and transparency of the system.
+ Data Availability Migration: Utilizing Ethereum's Proto-Danksharding upgrade to store transaction data directly on Layer 1, enhancing security and reducing transaction costs.
Combined with existing decentralized sequencers, these improvements make Andromeda one of the first fully decentralized Layer 2 solutions, providing a solid foundation for high-performance decentralized applications in the future.
