# Metis Metis is an **Optimistic Rollup** pursuing sequencer decentralization to mitigate single‑operator risk and improve censorship resistance. For builders, it behaves as a familiar EVM L2 with low fees and standard tooling; the main integration considerations are withdrawal windows and the evolving decentralization roadmap if your application has strict liveness requirements. Get started here with our Quickstart Guide --- # 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://liquify-2.gitbook.io/liquify/supported-chains/chainlist/metis.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
