• What is shardeum ?
Shardeum is a blockchain platform that leverages the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and implements dynamic state sharding for linear scalability. With the addition of each validator to the network, the Shardeum system is able to increase its transaction processing capacity, ensuring low fees for users in the long term. Unlike other state-sharded blockchain platforms, Shardeum boasts a unique architecture that retains atomic composability across all shards. This combination of high performance and decentralized structure make Shardeum the most scalable and efficient Ethereum-based Layer 1 platform available.
Shardeum is a project led by the CEO’s of WazirX, a indian popular cryptocurrency exchange. It raised $18.2 million from more than 50 investors, valuing the company at $200 million.

• Run validator node
⎘ “To become a validator node runner on Shardeum, you need to fulfill the minimum system requirements. If your device doesn't meet these requirements, you can run it on a Virtual Private Server (VPS). There are several VPS providers to choose from, such as DigitalOcean, Vultr, Contabo, and PQHosting. Consider your options and pick the one that best fits your needs.”
