Therefore, smart contracts development has to be complemented with a corresponding parachain. That's the niche Astar occupies.
Most often users face finality when making deposits to centralized exchanges. For example, for ETH deposits, most exchanges require 12 confirmations (blocks) before crediting tokens to the account. Therefore, the wait can last for minutes. In the case of BTC, that time is even longer.
Astar is ready for the growth of the ecosystem and offers Layer 2 scalability solutions to developers, such as ZK Rollups and Optimistic Rollups (we'll talk about these technologies in future posts).
That's enough for now, it's time to digest what you've learned and take a rest;)
See you in the next post and good luck to you, dear friends!
Always yours C.J.
