According to BlockBeats, on September 6, the data availability network Celestia announced its technical roadmap, with the core goal of expanding the block size to 1GB and significantly increasing data throughput. Since the launch of the Celestia mainnet Beta last year, 20 rollups have been deployed, and Celestia blobs account for 40% of the total published data.
The new roadmap is divided into three main workstreams: rich blockspace, verifiable blockspace, and frictionless blockspace. Celestia plans to achieve 1GB blocks by optimizing the consensus network and improving the data availability network, which will enable Celestia to support multiple Visa-scale payment networks running in parallel. Celestia is also committed to enabling light nodes to run in web browsers to ensure that anyone can verify applications on any device. The roadmap also includes improving the rollup developer experience and cross-chain asset transfers. The Celestia community drives all updates and initiatives through the Celestia Improvement Proposal (CIP) process, and 24 CIPs have been drafted or proposed.
