Transactions are executed instantly, speeding up the transaction process and reducing lag time compared to on-chain transactions, which are recorded on the blockchain and need network confirmation before they are completed.

Alors qu'une transaction réalisée dans la chaîne de blocs en est une qui modifie la chaîne de blocs et dont la validité est fonction de celle-ci, une transaction hors chaîne repose sur d'autres méthodes d'enregistrement et de validation.
