Celestia has announced its roadmap to scale to 1 gigabyte block size. This aims to significantly increase data throughput in Celestia’s rollup ecosystem. The increased block size is part of an effort to increase the scalability of blockchain networks by reducing transaction costs and storing data more efficiently.

Celestia competes with protocols such as EigenDA and Avail, as well as mainnet Ethereum. With 1 gigabyte blocks, Celestia’s transaction throughput will exceed Visa’s 24,000 transactions per second.

This development opens the way for previously unworkable applications such as verifiable web applications and fully on-chain games. We welcome your comments.
