# Taxonomy ## Standard rollups Standard rollups (on Ethereum) are validated and settled through smart contracts. ## Sovereign rollups Sovereign rollups (on Celestia) leverage the base layer protocol for consensus and data availability. ## Enshrined rollups Enshrined rollups ([domains](/autonomys-network/decoupled-execution/domains.md) on Autonomys) are directly integrated into the core consensus protocol of the underlying blockchain, ensuring the rollup's features and functionality are maintained and enforced by the network's consensus rules. This built-in support enhances the rollup's security, interoperability and adoption, while providing the benefits of a typical rollup, such as increased throughput and reduced transaction fees. Domains extend Celestia's sovereign rollup model to include shared settlement by default by allowing operators to re-stake (as proposed by Free2Shard and implemented by EigenLayer on Ethereum). Autonomys enshrines the re-staking model within the semantics of the core protocol (unlike EigenLayer, which is implemented through smart contracts). Although similar to Polkadot parachains, domains support a modular validation framework and permissionless deployment, unlike parachains' monolithic validation model and permissioned deployment. Domains also have shared security and trust-minimized interoperability as they are validated and settled on the consensus chain (unlike Cosmos zones and Avalanche subnets). --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://academy.autonomys.xyz/autonomys-network/decoupled-execution/domains/taxonomy.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
