Shared Infrastructure

Definition

Shared infrastructure refers to common underlying technological resources, platforms, or networks that are utilized by multiple independent entities or applications. In the blockchain space, this typically means a public blockchain protocol or a layer-2 solution that provides foundational services like transaction processing, data storage, or smart contract execution for a diverse array of decentralized applications. It promotes efficiency and interoperability by avoiding redundant development efforts. This allows projects to build on existing, robust systems.
