### Celestia 100M Raise

Celestia raised 100M from firms like Bain, Placeholder, Robot, 1kx and others

Unlike traditional blockchains, which bundle consensus, execution, and data availability into a single “layer”, Celestia decouples these components. It handles consensus and data availability, leaving execution to the rollups

Celestia's performance comes from "data availability sampling", which allows nodes to verify that data is accessible without needing to download the entire dataset. It does this by only requiring resource-limited light nodes to sample a random number of shares from each block to verify data availability.

TIA is a proof-of-stake token for participating validators. TIA is also used to pay for transaction fees on the network, such as paying for publishing data on-chain. It also acts as a governance token of the network.

Celestia powers over 20 Rollups, and posts 50% of the Rollup data to Ethereum.
