To be clear, sidechain transactions are just transactions on another chain. I wouldn’t call that off chain as it actually introduces more transactions (to move across the peg).
- rothbardrand 9y agoIt's less transactions. Imagine you're paying your cable bill.. you can move some value to the side chain (one transaction) then make 12 monthly transactions-- on the side chain, so off the main chain--and then after cancelling move the balance back to the main chain (second transaction) Thus 14 transactions become 2.
