๐ขLinera: Scaling Blockchain with Microchains & FastPay's Vision In a world of endless Layer 1 and Layer 2 solutions, the question arises: Do we really need another Layer 1? Enter @linera_io an innovative blockchain built to solve the trilemma of security, scalability, and decentralization. โกLinera is building upon the groundbreaking ideas of FastPay, a system introduced by Metaโs Novi division. FastPay aimed to handle up to 80,000 TPS (transactions per second) eclipsing Visaโs 65,000 TPS using blockchain technology for real-time settlement. ๐กThe core breakthrough of FastPay was eliminating the traditional mempool. Instead of waiting in line, transactions were processed in parallel, using microchains independent, small chains that could scale horizontally with validators. ๐Linera takes FastPayโs ideas to the next level by introducing programmable microchains, which not only offer fast transaction speeds but also enable smart contract functionality. This creates a blockchain that can theoretically scale infinitely! โฑ๏ธUnlike traditional rollups (e.g., ZK-Rollups), Lineraโs design avoids many of their inherent trade-offs, offering real-time settlement without the bottlenecks of mempools or ZK proof generation delays. ๐The key to Lineraโs scalability is microchains, which allow parallel processing of transactions. With Linera, user accounts transform into individual chains, all running on the same validator set, making the network more efficient and scalable. ๐Linera is already gaining traction with its testnet and has caught the attention of developers and users due to its real-time speed and scalability. The future looks bright for this ambitious project! #Linera #microchains #Web3 #blockchains
