Magnetars. We have traced some FRB-like signals to a magnetar within our own galaxy so it’s pretty convincing a lot of them are created by even higher energy magnetars, IMO.

I feel that then begs the next question which is if ALL FRBs are created via the same mechanism, but I’m not sure we have a convincing answer there yet.
