Finality has two definitions on Linea:
- Soft finality: The transaction is confirmed on Linea. This takes two seconds, i.e Linea's block
time. See [step 3](#step-3-transaction-data-sent-to-the-state-manager). For simplicity, Linea does
not reorg—remove competing versions of blockchain history in favor of a canonical one—when there
are reorgs on L1.
time. See [step 3](#step-3-transaction-data-sent-to-the-state-manager). For simplicity, Linea is
guaranteed to not reorg—remove competing versions of blockchain history in favor of a canonical
one—when there are reorgs on L1.
- Hard finality: The proof submitted to L1 has been verified, and two epochs have elapsed. The
typical time before hard finality is 8-32 hours, although the 8-hour minimum will be reduced to
zero in a future release. See [step 6](#step-6-batch-finalization).
