Title: What Are Layer 1 and Layer 2 Blockchains?

In crypto, Layer 1 refers to the main blockchain—like Bitcoin or Ethereum. It handles transactions and security directly.

Layer 2 sits on top of Layer 1. It’s built to speed things up and lower fees without changing the main network.

Examples:

Layer 1: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana

Layer 2: Polygon (on Ethereum), Lightning Network (on Bitcoin)

Together, they help blockchains scale for more users and apps. $BTC $ETH $BNB #TradeOfTheWeek #FOMCMeeting #MEMEAct #MostRecentTrade
