One thing I learned today:

I wanted ti revisit Celestia as over the last month I have been studying and researching roll-ups and L2s. Now I feel like I can revisit Celestia and its Data Availability services more thoroughly. This will be from there about page and then based in the future I will try and compare their product vs others. This will give yourself and I a better idea of their value prop.

So at first glance, Celestia allows light nodes to verify data on the blockchain with downloading the entire blockchain. This creates efficiency in two different areas: compute power and scalability. Less compute power from large computers needing to download the entire blockchain, because a light node can verify small data samples. It is more scalable because only small data samples need to be verified.

Celestia allows these functions by building a modular blockchain that gives developers the ability to build applications tailored to the dedicated blockspace that is needed. Here is a visual to help with that explanantion:

Celestia uses fraud proofs to verify whether data using the 2 dimensional reed-solomon encoding scheme is statisically correct to be added to the block. This scheme only needs small data sets to prove that the data is correct. Celestia claims to be the cloud computing for blockchains. I am not an expert in cloud computing so cannot confirm nor deny, but at a high levelI understand that connection they’re trying to make.

Next it would be interesting to see how Celestia and the use of Light nodes interacts with layer 2s.

Affirmations:

I will run the 2024 NYC marathon under 4:00:00 and exceed my fundraising goal

I will grow my blog by 10% every month using web3 tools

Gratitude:

That I get to research cool things like this every day

Miracle Morning:

Read: no

meditate: no

Workout: yes (run and legs)

Make my bed: yes

affirmations: yes

Gratitude: yes
