Short guides to the questions that matter in crypto: how to secure a network, how to scale it, and what makes money hard. Each one explains the idea in plain words and shows where Quai stands.
Guides
- Proof of work vs proof of stakeProof of work vs proof of stake, compared on censorship resistance, fairness, security, and cost of attack. Why proof of work wins, and how Quai makes it scale.+
- Scaling BitcoinScaling Bitcoin: why Bitcoin is limited to about 7 transactions per second, what bigger blocks, Lightning, and sidechains give up, and how Quai scales proof of work.+
- Scaling EthereumScaling Ethereum: how rollups, blobs, and sharding work, what they cost in fragmentation and trust, and how Quai scales the EVM on the base layer with proof of work.+
- Blockchain scalabilityBlockchain scalability and the blockchain trilemma explained: why bigger blocks, layer 2, and proof of stake each give something up, and how Quai scales with more chains.+
- Censorship resistanceWhat censorship resistance means in crypto, where stablecoins, proof of stake, and rollups give it up, and why proof-of-work networks like Quai keep it.+
