Both are Rollups, so why do withdrawals to the mainnet take a week for some, but not for others?
First, the definition: An Optimistic Rollup assumes that submitted results are correct. During the challenge period, anyone can submit a fraud proof to dispute a result.
Why it works this way: Fraud proofs follow the idea of “assume it’s correct first, investigate if someone challenges it.” As long as one honest participant is online and challenges the result in time, an incorrect result cannot slip through.
$ARB is the governance token of Arbitrum, an Optimistic Rollup network that uses fraud proofs.
Don’t stake all your savings on a single judgment.
