What does Layer 2 mean in crypto?

Layer 2 refers to networks or solutions built on top of the main blockchain (like Ethereum) to solve the problems of slow transactions and high fees.

🔹 The idea is to execute operations outside the main network and then send the results back to it.

🔹 Examples: Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon.

💡 Layer 2 makes transactions faster and cheaper, which is important for the expansion of crypto usage.
