You’ve probably heard it before. Celestia is the first modular blockchain network. But what is a modular blockchain, and how does Celestia fit into this? That’s what this post is all about - the brief version anyway. TLDR The first approach to building blockchains was a monolithic design

Most applications using Celestia as their consensus and data availability layer will be hosted on rollups. As a new layer 2 solution first proposed to increase transaction throughput, rollups may be the future home of almost all blockchain applications whether they use Celestia, Ethereum or another platform for consensus and

It's been a whirlwind the past few months, first and foremost with the successful launch of the Mamaki testnet. The data availability nodes on Mamaki have been working as intended while pending upgrades, such as bad encoding fraud proofs, were fully rolled out. We conducted various other internal tests for

Blockchains need to guarantee data availability (DA), especially in the case of rollup and layer 2 (L2) chains. The blockchain data availability problem goes like this: participants of blockchain networks can get locked out from interpreting the state or further updating it when block producers advance the state of the

We live in a multi-chain world. The idea that decentralized apps will all use the same shared smart contract blockchain is dead in practice. Ethereum is pivoting to a roadmap where apps have their own rollup chains, multi-chain ecosystems such as Cosmos and Polkadot are rising in popularity, as well
