Limitless Scaling

From Internet Computer Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

The Internet Computer (IC) can scale its capacity without limit, simply by adding additional nodes to fuel new subnets. Nodes are added via the Network Nervous System (NNS) which forms new subnets almost on a weekly basis since genesis. In contrast, most other blockchains have transaction limits baked into the protocol (e.g. adding more servers to Bitcoin does not increase the throughput) and need cumbersome layers to address scaling.
