+An Arbitrum protocol that manages data availability with a permissioned set of parties known as the [Data Availability Committee (DAC)](/intro/glossary#data-availability-committee-dac). This protocol reduces transaction fees by introducing an additional trust assumption for data availability in lieu of Ethereum's [Trustless](/intro/glossary#trustless) data availability mechanism. [Arbitrum Nova](/intro/glossary#arbitrum-nova) is an example of an AnyTrust chain; [Arbitrum One](/intro/glossary#arbitrum-one) is an alternative chain that implements the purely trustless (and more L1-gas intensive) [Arbitrum Rollup Protocol](/intro/glossary#arbitrum-rollup-protocol).
