This article has been translated by the Fuel Ambassadors in Russian. The Modular Blockchain Paradigm Modular blockchains are the latest paradigm in blockchain design. Originated by Celestia, the concept of modularity is rapidly becoming a category-defining narrative when it comes to the challenge of scaling blockchains by orders of magnitude. But why do we need modular blockchains? Consider the following four theses:Based on these principles, it becomes clear that we need to look to new parad...

Apply for a grant hereEarlier this year, we introduced Fuel v2, the fastest modular execution layer. With the development of Fuel v2, we have begun to shift away from traditional monolithic structures, where all aspects of a blockchain, (consensus, data availability, and execution), are handled on a single layer. The introduction of the Fuel VM provides incredibly high levels of throughput through parallelization via UTXOs. The FuelVM learns from the Ethereum ecosystem, implementing improveme...
