Mantle Network is an L2 scalability solution built on top of Ethereum. It is a technology stack for scaling Ethereum. Mantle Network has a modular architecture combining an optimistic roll-up protocol with an innovative data availability solution.
The validator nodes collect user transactions and commit them to Ethereum as a "compressed block". This compression saves users expensive gas fees and increases the total possible transaction throughput.
Optimistic Rollups (ORs) are Layer-2 (L2) protocols designed to increase the throughput of Ethereum. They reduce the computation load on the main Ethereum chain by taking computation and state storage off-chain and processing transactions in batches.
Transaction fees on Mantle Network work similar to fees on Ethereum. As Mantle network is a Layer 2 (L2) blockchain, there are new paradigms in the fee structure that cause it to differ from Ethereum's fee.
Mantle's execution layer provides an EVM-compatible environment for transaction execution where the sequencer produces blocks on L2 and sends state root data to L1.
