Faster, lower-cost Ethereum
A layer-2 is a network built on top of a base chain, usually Ethereum, to settle transactions faster and at lower cost while inheriting the security of the chain beneath it. Polygon, Arbitrum and Optimism are the most used. Zypto buys their tokens directly into a wallet that holds them alongside the layer-1 they settle to.
