Celestia

Plataforma P2P

A modular data-availability network that other blockchains plug into rather than a single monolithic chain — Celestia handles ordering and guaranteeing data availability for transactions, while execution happens on separate rollup or app-specific chains built using Celestia's tooling. Current self-positioning (per celestia.org) emphasizes launching custom, high-throughput chains via the Celestia stack, the same "framework other chains are built with" shape as Cosmos SDK, rather than a single implementable spec. Maintained by Celestia Labs (development) under the umbrella of the Celestia Foundation.

Plataforma P2P Atributos

Origens Modular blockchain design — separating data availability (Celestia's job) from execution (handled by rollups/app-chains built on top), rather than one monolithic chain doing both.
Banco de Dados Chain-specific data-availability layer; not a queryable database in the conventional sense.
Linguagem de Consulta JSON-RPC/gRPC node query endpoints.
Formatos de Dados Protobuf (inherited from its Cosmos SDK/CometBFT base).
Edição Colaborativa em Tempo Real N/A
Edição de Texto Rico N/A
Suporte Móvel N/A directly (infrastructure-layer; chains built on top provide end-user-facing apps)
Suporte Web N/A directly (infrastructure-layer; chains built on top provide end-user-facing apps)
Aplicativos Nativos N/A (a framework/network, not an end-user app)
Termos Free, open-source; rollups/app-chains pay data-availability fees to Celestia validators.
Fundos Celestia Foundation's treasury not independently sized this pass.
Baseado Em Built on Cosmos SDK + CometBFT (this story's own separate Cosmos SDK entry) , extended with data-availability sampling (DAS) — a novel technique enabling light nodes to verify data availability without downloading full blocks.
Arquitetura P2P Validator gossip network (CometBFT-based) plus a light-node network that performs data-availability sampling independently.
Ferramentas de Desenvolvimento SDK/tooling for launching rollups and app-chains against the Celestia DA layer (positioned as the core product per current homepage framing).
Opções de Implantação Self-hosted validator/light-node deployment; rollups/app-chains built on top deploy independently.
Autenticação e Identidade Cosmos SDK-style accounts (inherited from its base stack).
Modelo de Armazenamento On-chain data-availability layer — data is published and its availability is guaranteed/verifiable, not stored as general-purpose application state.
Interoperabilidade IBC-compatible (inherits from its Cosmos SDK base), plus its core purpose is serving as a shared DA layer other chains depend on.
