币界网报道:Celestia (TIA) is emerging as a groundbreaking modular blockchain network designed to simplify scalability for developers. Unlike traditional monolithic blockchains that handle execution, settlement, and data availability on one layer, Celestia specializes solely in data availability – ensuring transaction data is published and accessible. This modular approach allows other blockchains to outsource data availability to Celestia while focusing on their core functions. The network uses Data Availability Sampling (DAS), where light nodes verify data availability without downloading entire blocks, enabling secure scaling. TIA, the native token, powers network security through Proof-of-Stake and covers transaction fees. Since its October 2023 mainnet launch, TIA has surged over 400%, with its market cap exceeding $2 billion as it gains traction among developers building rollups and modular chains. Key innovations include Celestia's ability to process 1MB blocks every 15 seconds (scalable to 8MB) and its "pay-as-you-go" model that eliminates minimum fees for developers. The project has attracted notable backers like Binance Labs and Polychain Capital, positioning itself as critical infrastructure for Web3's modular future. Recent developments include the launch of Blobstream, enabling Ethereum L2s to use Celestia for cheaper data availability, and growing integration with ecosystems like Polygon CDK and Arbitrum Orbit chains.
