Based Rollup
A rollup whose transaction sequencing is performed by the Layer 1 base chain's validators rather than a centralized sequencer. Based rollups inherit the L1's liveness and decentralization guarantees, eliminating single-sequencer risks. The trade-off is potentially higher latency compared to centralized sequencing.
