Blockchain Scalability: Sharding and Data Availability
Advanced · 6 lessons · 0 complete
A technical look at scaling blockchains at the base layer instead of on top of it. Covers why full replication caps throughput, what sharding actually means for a blockchain, why it's a much harder problem than sharding a normal database, how it relates to rollups, and why data availability became its own critical bottleneck.
