Sharding is a way for blockchains to handle more transactions without fundamentally changing their code or rules.

The concept is most relevant to Ethereum, which is extremely congested and needs a solution that speeds things up …
The question ‘what is TVL’ is one of the most common in all of crypto. Check out our explainer on what the words ‘token value locked’ really means, and what TVL means specifically for DeFi projects.
Zero Knowledge (ZK) tech can solve Ethereum’s scalability puzzle. This validation concept has the potential to increase the network’s transaction capacity from 15 to 100,000 per second and trigger a huge reduction in frustrating gas fees. All it needs, in actual fact, is to be compatible with Ethereum itself. Specifically, it needs to be compatible …
Zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs can prove the legitimacy of a transaction without revealing sensitive details from either party. The technology is fast, secure and is popular among several ‘rollup’ projects on Ethereum layer 2, including rhino.fi. We’re known as ‘ZK rollups’ for this reason.

In the cryptoverse, a fork happens when a section of a blockchain’s community decide to go in a new direction and change its rules (protocol) by modifying its code.  Now we know what you’re thinking here: that’s a bit like when a band splits over musical differences, right? Or when a company breaks into …

Â Essentially, wrapped tokens are copies of the original asset, created for other blockchains. In other words, they allow assets to be traded on chains other than the one …
A bridge in the digital world functions exactly the same as a bridge in the physical world: it allows you to cross between territories that would otherwise be cut off from one another.  In the physical world, bridges are used to connect two pieces of land. In the digital world, they’re used to connect …
