= “Trustless security: security rooted in Ethereum, with any one party able to ensure correct Layer 2 results
= Compatibility with Ethereum: able to run unmodified EVM contracts and unmodified Ethereum transactions
= Scalability: moving contracts’ computation and storage off of the main Ethereum chain, allowing much higher throughput
= Minimum cost: designed and engineered to minimize the L1 gas footprint of the system, minimizing per-transaction cost.“
