Dapper Labs has launched one of the most popular NFT gaming collections ever named CryptoKitties, which choked the Ethereum blockchain. There is no need to describe what happens when Ethereum’s blockchain chokes, gas prices rise to unreachable heights, and access to the blockchain becomes uneconomical for regular users.
Flow Blockchain was launched by Dapper Labs in response to Ethereum’s high gas fees and low transaction capabilities. Flow is a fast, decentralized, and developer-friendly blockchain designed for high transaction throughput for gaming networks, digital assets, and mobile apps that require millions of transactions.
Flow’s blockchain architecture follows a totally different route than Ethereum, with a multi-role architecture built on top of a unique architecture that handles scalability without sharding.
