Celestia Blockchain is the first true Modular blockchain that is going to the change the future of how blockchains work, interact and more.
How is Celestia different from Bitcoin and Ethereum?
If Bitcoin is a calculator and Ethereum is a computer, then Celestia is a cloud computer.
Bitcoin showed that it was possible to build a decentralized application but was very limited in what it could be used to build.
Ethereum showed that it was possible to build a programmable blockchain that anyone could use to launch a decentralized application. Celestia will show that it is possible to build a network that enables anyone to launch their own blockchain.
What are rollups and how do they work with Celestia?
Rollups are a type of blockchain that offload some work to a layer 1 like Celestia. Rollups host apps and process user transactions. By hosting apps across many different rollups, apps do not have to compete for computational resources with each other.
Once rollup transactions get processed, they are then published to Celestia. Celestia’s job is to order those transactions and check that they are available to download.
What’s a good analogy of Celestia?
Think of Celestia as a power grid, except instead of providing electricity, Celestia provides the essential resource to power a blockchain: consensus and data availability. Similar to how anyone can plug into an electricity grid to power their appliance, anyone can plug into Celestia’s network to power their own blockchain. The Celestia token is the currency you use to pay for electricity.
