2024: THE YEAR OF CRYPTO'S MODULAR EXPANSION

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Modularity breaks up blockchain functionality into three parts — data availability and consensus, settlement, and execution — each of which gets its own chain or environment. Prominent projects exist in each sector, along with interoperability to unite liquidity, with the goal of integrating together to make something greater than the sum of their parts. The commoditization of block space and execution will enable applications to operate at much larger scales with grander visions.
