How would a Kaspa Layer 2 use ZK proofs to settle transactions on the base layer?

A Kaspa Layer 2 would batch thousands of transactions off-chain, generate a single proof of correct state transition, and submit only that proof to the base layer for verification — instead of asking the base layer to re-execute every transaction. Zero-knowledge proofs make this possible by acting like a tamper-proof receipt: they attest that a specific program, given specific inputs, produced a specific output. Once the base layer verifies the proof, it can settle (unlock) the associated funds. This is the same model ZK-secured Layer 2 networks use today. For a Kaspa beginner, this means a future Kaspa Layer 2 could handle far more transactions than the base layer processes directly, without giving up the on-chain security that makes the settlement trustworthy.
