Teranode and Unbounded Scaling

Enabling Unbounded Scaling for a truly global blockchain

Unbounded Scalability on the BSV Blockchain

In today’s world, available resources dictate the bounds to the amount of transaction activity that blockchain can support. Teranode has no built-in limits. Operators are free to add resources and expand these bounds by magnitudes.

Key Innovation
Teranode parallelises network nodes and microservices, enabling limitless scalability, guided by three foundational principles:
Teranode is a distributed network of many core nodes
Specialisation and isolation of components and their roles
Microtransactions combine information and value
Evolution to Unbounded Scale
Supporting a global network with distributed mining nodes, processing millions of microtransactions, and expanding known limits.
The global Teranode network supports specialized networks.
Enables millions of processed per second.
Scalable with no built-in transaction limits.

Solving Vertical Scaling Challenges

Teranode serves high-volume transaction nodes for enterprise and government use. These clients, whether contracting with nodes or running their own, drive the Teranode initiative.

Specialization of Nodes and Functions​

The BSV Blockchain, with Teranode at its core, will be the backbone infrastructure for a global system of multiple specialised overlay networks. We anticipate specialised nodes to complement the core services provided by miners running Teranode.

Dedicated overlay networks operated by enterprise infrastructure providers will communicate with the network core. End-user applications will leverage SPV (Simplified Payment Verification) to interact within the Overlay Network.

Overlay Networks

The BSV Blockchain, with Teranode at its core, will be the backbone infrastructure for a global system of multiple specialised overlay networks. We anticipate specialised nodes to complement the core services provided by miners running Teranode. Dedicated overlay networks operated by enterprise infrastructure providers will communicate with the network core. End-user applications will leverage SPV (Simplified Payment Verification) to interact within the Overlay Network.

Specialization of nodes and functions​

Teranode represents a breakthrough in the BSV Blockchain ecosystem, introducing the concept of unbounded-specialization of nodes and functions. It enables specialized nodes, even at overlay levels like "bank nodes," while ensuring edge-to-edge connectivity with SPV wallets. Teranode is pivotal in BSV's evolution, empowering innovative blockchain applications.
