Shardeum - Web3 for Humans

The Crypto Conversation

Kelsey McGuire is the Chief Growth Officer at Shardeum, the world’s first EVM-based L1 blockchain which uses dynamic state sharding to increase TPS with every new node. Or as Shardeum describe themselves, Web3 for Humans.

Why you should listen

Shardeum is an EVM-based, linearly scalable smart contract platform that maintains true decentralization and solid security through dynamic state sharding. This means Shardeum can increase its TPS capacity with each validator added to the network to retain low gas fees forever.

Shardeum is the solution to the blockchain trilemma. As blockchain tries to achieve scalability, decentralization and security, it will only be able to attain two. There must be a trade-off between decentralization and scalability with security an essential element. Shardeum achieves scalability, decentralization and still maintains security.

Shardeum’s auto-scaling feature allows the network to automatically adjust the number and size of shards based on the current workload. This allows the system to optimize performance and maintain high levels of scalability as it grows and evolves.

Shardeum aims to be a chain capable of onboarding over a billion people to the blockchain and crypto revolution. Shardeum, like the Internet, will be open, collaborative, and community-driven and would democratize accessibility to decentralization. Shardeum will be the infrastructure on which the next iteration of the Internet, Web3, will be built.
