Extreme network scale describes a network’s ability to process an exceptionally high volume of transactions, users, or data without significant degradation in performance or security. This capacity is a fundamental requirement for public blockchains aiming to achieve global adoption. Attaining such scale is a complex engineering challenge.
Context
The pursuit of extreme network scale remains a primary technical challenge and an active area of research for many blockchain protocols. Developers are investigating solutions such as sharding and layer-two technologies to overcome throughput limitations. These innovations are critical for supporting widespread decentralized applications and expanding the utility of blockchain technology.
A new leaderless epidemic consensus protocol resolves the scalability-decentralization tradeoff, leveraging probabilistic convergence for massive network throughput.
