Blockchain design separating execution, consensus, and data availability into specialized layers
Blockchain design separating execution, consensus, and data availability into specialized layers.
Modular blockchains divide responsibilities among specialized layers rather than handling everything on one chain. This enables better scalability, flexibility, and allows each layer to be optimized independently. Celestia and Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap exemplify this approach.
