Hybrid Shard Validation combines elements of sharding and traditional validation processes to enhance the scalability and security of a blockchain network.In sharding, the blockchain is divided into smaller parts called shards, each capable of processing its own transactions. This improves throughput since multiple transactions can occur simultaneously across different shards. However, managing the integrity of these shards poses challenges.Hybrid Shard Validation addresses this issue by implementing a dual-layer validation system. The first layer consists of validators assigned to individual shards, responsible for confirming transactions within their shard. The second layer includes a global set of validators who oversee multiple shards, ensuring the overall coherence and security of the network.By incorporating both local and global validation, this approach reduces the risk of malicious activities and enhances the network’s scalability. It allows for faster transaction processing while maintaining a high level of security through broader oversight. This combination makes it easier to handle increased user demand without compromising the integrity of the blockchain.
