If every node has to verify every transaction, what’s the performance ceiling of a public blockchain?
In a sharded blockchain, each node only needs to process transactions from some of the shards, and the network’s overall processing capacity increases with the number of shards.
When transferring funds on a sharded public blockchain, keep an eye on the confirmation progress in your wallet. Cross-shard transfers may take a little longer than regular transactions.
$NEAR is NEAR’s native coin. This public blockchain uses the Nightshade sharding design. Currently, 5.088.
