🔥 The nitty-gritty of the technology: data availability
Every node is required to download the full dataset. The bigger the blocks, the higher the barrier to running a node. Sampling means each node only has to download a small amount of data, allowing capacity to keep growing.
When you come across a chain claiming to be “ultra-low-cost,” first ask where its transaction data is stored and who guarantees it can be downloaded.
