🗒️ Technical Principles | Sharding
· Key point: Although Danksharding has “sharding” in its name, it shards blob data, not transaction execution. Its core purpose is to provide Rollups with cheaper data availability.
· Why: If an application's state is spread across multiple shards, calls involve cross-shard communication, which adds complexity to both development and the user experience.
· Note: When making transfers on a sharded blockchain, keep an eye on the confirmation progress in your wallet. Cross-shard transfers may take a little longer than regular transactions.
