Protocol scaling refers to the process of enhancing a blockchain network’s capacity to handle a greater volume of transactions and users without compromising its performance or decentralization. This involves architectural changes or the implementation of auxiliary solutions to increase throughput and reduce transaction latency. Effective protocol scaling is essential for the widespread adoption of blockchain technology.
Context
Current discussions surrounding protocol scaling are heavily focused on the development and implementation of layer-2 solutions and upgrades to base-layer protocols. Key debates involve the trade-offs between different scaling approaches, such as sharding, optimistic rollups, and zero-knowledge rollups, and their respective impacts on security and decentralization. Future developments to observe include the successful integration of these scaling technologies into major blockchain networks and their ability to support a substantial increase in decentralized application usage.
