This week, Sal and Zen Llama host another podcast in the "Technical" series - this time talking with Piers Ridyard who is CEO of RDX Works. The episode goes into depth around what makes Radix such a highly novel design, why sharding is the inevitable solution for horizontally scaling blockchains, and why the notion of blocks needs to be revamped to allow for full atomic composability between shards. Find out why Radix may well be the final nail in the coffin of the scalability trilemma. - - Time Stamps (0:00) - Overview on Radix (3:47) - How Radix reduces risk of exploits (17:25) - Comparing Radix to Solana and Move (28:35) - Radix’s novel approach to sharding (43:30) - How do nodes sync up the full state (45:09) - What are trade offs from a DevEx perspective?
