Episode Summary

On this episode of DAOn the Rabbit Hole, we’re chatting with Aditi from Celestia - the first modular blockchain. We discuss rollups, blockchain scaling, data availability, and supporting blockchain developers.

Episode Notes

On this episode of DAOn the Rabbit Hole, we’re chatting with Aditi, who initially became enthralled with blockchain technology after witnessing Vitalik himself in a green cat shirt, command a sea of financial businessmen in suits. Today she works for the first modular blockchain network, Celestia.

Aditi dives into how Celestia differs from traditional layer 1 blockchains, how it separates consensus from computation and the difference between data availability and data storage. We discuss rollups and their compatibility with Celestia as well as the kinds of applications that Celestia could benefit in the future. 

Finally, we look forward to what 2022 has in store for Celestia and what you can expect to see from them in the year ahead.
