Celestia

Celestia aims at modular blockchain design, so it is for people following the idea of separating consensus from execution rather than packing everything into one chain. By our assessment, that makes it interesting as a piece of crypto infrastructure, but the public picture around Celestia is still more about the concept than about everyday use. The trade-off is obvious: once a token sits in this lane, the promise is technical and the ceiling depends on adoption by builders, not on a simple consumer role. In practice that usually means watching the project’s narrative, ecosystem talk, and market mood more than using it like a payment coin. Compared with plain payment tokens or the large smart-contract networks, it lives in a narrower, more specialised corner.
