Celestia FAQ
Dive deeper into Celestia
Celestia is a modular blockchain network that enables developers to build scalable, secure, and interoperable decentralized applications (dApps). Celestia decouples the data availability layer from the execution layer, allowing each layer to be optimized for its specific purpose. This makes Celestia more scalable and efficient than traditional monolithic blockchains.
How does Celestia work?
Celestia works by separating the blockchain into two layers: the data availability layer and the execution layer. The data availability layer is responsible for storing and validating transaction data, while the execution layer is responsible for executing transactions and updating the state of the blockchain.
The data availability layer uses a sampling mechanism to ensure that all transaction data is available to all nodes on the network. This makes Celestia more secure than traditional blockchains, as it is more difficult for attackers to tamper with the transaction data.
The execution layer can be implemented using any type of virtual machine, which makes Celestia more flexible and adaptable than traditional blockchains. Developers can choose the virtual machine that best suits their needs, and they can even build their own custom virtual machines.

Celestia highlights
- Scalability: Celestia is designed to be scalable to millions of transactions per second.
- Security: Celestia uses a variety of security features to protect the network and its users, including proof-of-stake consensus, sharding, and fraud proofs.
- Interoperability: Celestia is interoperable with other blockchains, which means that Celestia dApps and smart contracts can communicate and interact with dApps and smart contracts on other blockchains.
- Flexibility: Celestia is a modular blockchain, which means that its different components can be upgraded or replaced without disrupting the entire network. This makes Celestia more flexible and adaptable than traditional monolithic blockchains.
