WazirX founder launches blockchain called Shardeum
Mumbai: Nischal Shetty, founder of crypto exchange WazirX, has announced a new blockchain called Shardeum that will compete with others such as Ethereum and Solana. This is one of the first layer-one blockchains being built out of India. Shetty said that unlike other blockchains, Shardeum will solve for scalability and expensive transaction costs, while maintaining a high level of decentralisation, which he said was lacking in most blockchains today. “If you are looking at 200 million people today in crypto worldwide, this will go to a billion people in the future. There is no way the existing blockchains will be able to support that. Sharding is a known solution to solve this problem, which is what Shardeum is built on,” he said.
