Vitalik Buterin Shares Blockchain Scaling Hierachy

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has set out a clear “scalability hierarchy” for blockchains: computation, then data, then state. He explains that each layer has different limits, so engineers should not treat them as equally easy to scale. According to Buterin, computation is the easiest part to grow. Networks can increase throughput using parallel processing, block-builder … Continue reading Vitalik Buterin Shares Blockchain Scaling Hierachy
