Hydra
Hydra is a Layer 2 scalability solution that seeks to provide more efficient means of processing off-chain transactions for a set of users while using the mainnet as a secure settlement layer. Hydra Head keeps security guarantees while remaining loosely coupled to the main chain. Not requiring global consensus, it can adapt to a broad range of applications. Also, Hydra Head allows Tx fees, script execution budgets and other protocol parameters to be configured as low or high as needed by the use case.
