Airchains is thrilled to announce an integration with Celestia to build a more scalable and secure infrastructure for zk-rollups and decentralized applications (dApps). By joining forces, both teams will enhance their respective ecosystems, offering privacy-first blockchain solutions to developers and enterprises that require modularity for more sophisticated use cases. 

The integration will pair Celestia’s modular data availability network with Airchains’ multichain rollup framework and its expertise in multidimensional privacy, including zkFHE (Zero Knowledge Fully Homomorphic Encryption). Developers from the two communities will be encouraged to build on both technologies and create new dApps that leverage zkFHE cryptography across the EVM, SVM, and CosmWasm. 

Celestia is the leader in modular data availability, with an advanced design that securely scales along with its userbase. By publishing data on Celestia, rollups on Airchains can tap into abundant DA to scale their project, while also reducing their DA costs substantially. Celestia’s light nodes rely on data availability sampling (DAS) to verify DA more efficiently. And as the light node network grows, Celestia can scale its data throughput to accommodate millions of rollups without compromising on security.

“We’re thrilled to integrate Celestia into our tech stack to build the future of privacy-first modular rollups together. Celestia is a pioneer in the modular space, with a passionate community of developers that want to see modular privacy use cases continue to leverage Celestia’s innovative data availability network. I see a bright future for our two teams as we continue to collaborate.” - Ankur Rakhi Sinha, CEO and Co-founder of Airchains

About Celestia Labs

Celestia Labs is the visionary team behind Celestia. Founded by Mustafa Al-Bassam and Ismail Khoffi, Celestia Labs unlocked the ability for blockchains to scale regardless of VM or execution layer. By advancing a modular architecture that separates various layers of blockchains for greater efficiency and customizability, Celestia Labs have led the industry into the modular blockchain era. 

Today, Celestia’s core developer community is focused on scaling the Celestia network to 1 gigabyte blocks, which will massively increase data throughput. When the network reaches this milestone, it will be the equivalent capacity of many Visa networks (each ~24,000 TPS) running in parallel. The possibilities for onchain use cases will grow vastly, unlocking the capability for global enterprises and institutions to bring their data onchain. That is when Airchains’ modular rollup framework and privacy innovations will be most needed.

Joining Forces: Airchains with Celestia Underneath

Airchains is a Modular zk-Rollup SDK that ensures better scalability and adaptability in comparison to conventional rollup solutions. The Airchains zk Stack is a dynamic suite of tools that provides users with a wide array of execution environments to choose from, including the EVM (Ethereum), SVM (Solana), and CosmWasm (Cosmos). 

The Airchains framework makes it easy for users to rapidly deploy cross-VM rollups. Designed for developers, enterprises, and institutions, Airchains streamlines the creation and management of intractable blockchain networks.

With this integration, Airchains and Celestia will harness the best of both platforms so that developers can build privacy-preserving, modular, and scalable rollups for their tailored use case. As the partnership grows, the two teams will continue to explore joint market expansion opportunities that leverage each other’s strengths.
