Definition ∞ Block Pipelining is a method for processing blockchain blocks more efficiently. It permits the overlapping execution of different stages of block processing, rather than requiring strict sequential completion. This technique allows for concurrent operations, such as validation and propagation, across multiple blocks.
Context ∞ This approach is frequently discussed in the context of blockchain scalability solutions. Reports on network upgrades or new protocol designs often mention block pipelining as a means to improve transaction throughput and reduce the time required for block finality. It directly addresses performance bottlenecks in high-demand networks.
