Shards and Layer-2s: Unpacking NEAR and Ethereum’s contrasting approaches to blockchain scalability

2023-7-5 20:30

The landscape of blockchain scalability has evolved significantly in recent years, with Layer-2s (L2s) and sharding emerging as the two dominant approaches. Ethereum, a key player in the crypto industry, has adopted rollup-centric L2s to scale its network, while NEAR protocol has taken a different path, choosing to scale via sharding.

Who Will Win in the Race for Processing Speed: Command Chain Protocol vs The Lightning Network

There was one issue with Bitcoin when it was first proposed in 2008 by Satoshi Nakamoto:  it couldn’t scale. Ten years later and Bitcoin has the same scalability problem. Throughout its existence, it hasn’t managed to go beyond processing more than seven transactions per second; which was enough in the beginning.
