If every node has to verify every transaction, where is the performance ceiling for a public blockchain?
Sharding originated in database technology. It means splitting data and computing tasks into multiple shards, which process them in parallel.
When transferring funds on a sharded public blockchain, keep an eye on the confirmation progress in your wallet. A cross-shard transfer may take a little longer than a regular transaction.
$NEAR is NEAR’s native token, and this public blockchain uses the Nightshade sharding design.
