About Shardeum(SHM):
Shardeum is the world’s first auto-scaling Layer-1 blockchain, designed to solve scalability challenges while maintaining true decentralization. Dynamic state sharding helps keep gas fees low and TPS high as participation grows. Shardeum performs consensus at the transaction level and lowers the computational power needed for validator nodes. This consensus mechanism makes it possible for anyone to run a node while increasing decentralization.
