Hubble
Optimistic rollup hub which permits creation of optimistic rollup chains inside the similar interface, eradicating the necessity to ever “exit” the ecosystem by permitting customers to maneuver between chains immediately and at negligible price as soon as they’ve entered the rollup house. The aim of Hubble is to permit the creation of any rollup chain just by writing a solidity perform.
