Ismail Khoffi & Mustafa Al-Bassam: Celestia – The Data Availability and Consensus Solution #359
NB: Since the recording of this podcast LazyLedger changed their name to Celestia.
Celestia is a scalable general-purpose data availability layer for decentralized apps and trust-minimized sidechains. It is a minimal, viable blockchain which does time stamping and block ordering.
Think back to Bitcoin in the early days, before Ethereum. Layer-2 systems were being built on top of Bitcoin and were leveraging its consensus layer. This is what Celestia is doing, although it is purpose built and scalable for the exact use case. The vision is to create a modular pluggable Layer-1 that does nothing but consensus and data availability. It is designed for people who want to create their blockchain without consensus.
The project is yet to be launched, however we had Ismail Khoffi, Co-Founder and CTO, and Mustafa Al-Bassam, Co-Founder and CEO on the show to give us a deep technical overview and vision of Celestia.
Topics discussed in this episode:
- Ismail and Mustafa's backgrounds, and how they got into the crypto space
- How Ismail and Mustafa met and created Celestia
- The Data Availability paper which was co-written with Vitalik and introduction to Celestia
- The purpose and function of Celestia
- How data availability works and the advantages and disadvantages to their ledger
- The purpose of Celestia
- How transaction fees work
- The interoperability aspect
- Honest validators on the block
- Non-interactive proofs on Celestia
- The interaction between Celestia and Cosmos SDK
- How will Celestia compete with other Layer-1's, in particular Filecoin
- When the ledger will be launched
