The Future of Scaling: A Panorama of Web3 Parallel Computing Tracks

Written by: 0xjacobzhao and ChatGPT The

"Blockchain Trilemma" of the 4o blockchain "security", "decentralisation", and "scalability" reveal the essential trade-off in the design of blockchain systems, that is, it is difficult for blockchain projects to achieve "extreme security, everyone can participate, and high-speed processing" at the same time. In response to the eternal topic of "scalability", the mainstream blockchain scaling solutions in the market are divided according to paradigms, including:

Execution-enhanced scaling: Improving execution capabilities in situ, such as parallelism, GPU, and multi-core
State-isolated scaling: Horizontally split state/shard, such as sharding, UTXO, and multi-subnet
Off-chain outsourced scaling: Putting execution off-chain, For example, Rollup, Coprocessor, DA
structure decoupling scaling: modular architecture, collaborative operation, such as module chain,...
