Modular blockchain architecture refers to a design approach where a blockchain’s core functions, such as execution, data availability, and consensus, are separated into distinct, specialized layers. This separation allows each component to be optimized independently, enhancing scalability and flexibility. It represents a shift from monolithic blockchain designs.
