View ChartCelestia is a Layer 1 blockchain platform on which other applications and services can be built. Unlike its peers, however, the Celestia network focuses on just two tasks: ordering transactions and making data available. This enables other developers to create their own chains, known as rollups, and to rely on Celestia for security and data storage.
Traditional blockchains, such as Bitcoin and Solana, are monolithic, meaning they handle execution, consensus and data storage in one place. While this design is effective, it creates bottlenecks, and achieving scalability has been one of the biggest challenges in the crypto industry. The more people who use blockchains, the slower and more expensive they become.
Celestia solves this problem by being modular, i.e. it separates these functions into specialist layers. This results in faster transactions, lower costs and greater flexibility for developers, who can innovate without having to build everything themselves. Celestia’s innovative approach makes it easier and cheaper to launch new blockchains, allowing them to share the same secure base layer.
The Celestia project began in 2019 when Mustafa Al-Bassam — a PhD student at University College London at the time — introduced the concept of dividing blockchain functions into distinct layers in a research paper titled ‘LazyLedger.’ The goal was simple yet ambitious: to make blockchains more scalable and easier to build.
Al-Bassam then teamed up with Ismail Khoffi, an engineer from the Cosmos ecosystem, and John Adler, a researcher, to develop the open-source Cosmos SDK framework. This gave Celestia its interoperability and Tendermint-based consensus. In 2021, the project officially rebranded from LazyLedger to Celestia.
The project secured its first major round of financing in March 2021. Since then, it has secured over $200 million across ten funding rounds, with key investors including Bain Capital Crypto, Coinbase Ventures, Syncracy and Polychain.
After years of research and testnets, Celestia announced the launch of its native token, TIA, in September 2023 and launched the main network on 31 October 2023.
TIA is the native token of the Celestia network, and it plays a central role in how the modular blockchain operates. The cryptocurrency can mainly be used for:
