Scaling (Layer 1 & Layer 2)

Lightning Network: Next-Generation Bitcoin Architecture

The Lightning Network is an off-chain, second-layer solution to Bitcoin’s scalability and transaction speed problems that operates on top of the blockchain.

Layer-1 and Layer-2 Blockchain Scaling Solutions

There are two primary ways to achieve blockchain scalability: Layer-1 and Layer-2 solutions.

Distributed Work Protocols and Developers

The growth of Web3, the decentralized internet, has given rise to a new breed of network architecture: distributed work protocols.

SKALE Network (SKL): Elastic Ethereum Sidechains for Scaling

SKALE is a Layer-2 Ethereum sidechain network that creates a high-throughput, low-latency, low-cost environment for decentralized app (dApp) development.

Cross-Chain Interoperability: What it Means for Blockchain

Blockchain interoperability allows data and value to be transferred across different networks. It has become an increasingly important feature of Web3.

Blockchain Scalability and Privacy: The Rollup Ecosystem

Rollups can move computationally intensive processes to a sidechain to ease congestion on the mainchain while stabilizing network fees and transaction speeds.
