State Channel

State Channel is a mechanism that enables off-chain transactions between parties. It allows multiple interactions without involving the main blockchain. This reduces transaction fees and increases speed. Participants lock a portion of their assets in a multi-signature contract. They can then conduct numerous transactions off-chain. Once they conclude, the final state is broadcasted to the blockchain. This method ensures security while enhancing scalability. By keeping most interactions off-chain, state channels alleviate blockchain congestion. This makes them ideal for applications requiring high-frequency transactions, like gaming or micropayments.
