How BlockDAG Overcomes Blockchain Industry Limitations

Bitcoin and Ethereum laid the foundation for the cryptocurrency industry, but their limited throughput and high fees hinder further development. BlockDAG provides solutions to these issues with its innovative DAG structure.

Limitations of Modern Blockchains

Bitcoin can process only 7 transactions per second, while Ethereum reaches 30 TPS, but with high gas fees. Both blockchains face fundamental limitations due to their architecture. BlockDAG uses a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG), allowing for parallel transaction processing and significantly increasing network throughput.

Low Fees and Instant Transactions

Ethereum users have to compete for block space, leading to sudden spikes in gas prices. Bitcoin, although having lower fees, takes too long to confirm transactions. BlockDAG eliminates these shortcomings by confirming multiple transactions simultaneously, avoiding congestion and reducing transaction costs to near zero.

Scalability Without Limits

One of the main challenges in cryptocurrency is scalability. BlockDAG offers a solution by expanding the network as more users join. This increases transaction processing speed without the need for external fixes or creating network fragmentation, unlike Ethereum with its layer-2 solutions.

BlockDAG presents revolutionary changes in blockchain technology, offering scalability and low fees. This makes it an attractive alternative for users tired of traditional blockchains' disadvantages.
