How Can a Derivatives Protocol Mitigate the Risk of Network Congestion?
Protocols can mitigate congestion risk by deploying on high-throughput Layer-2 solutions or alternative Layer-1 chains. They can also implement dynamic fee mechanisms, batch transactions, and utilize decentralized off-chain order books with on-chain settlement.
These measures ensure that critical functions like liquidations and margin updates can be processed quickly even during peak network demand.
