RE: Steemit Crypto Academy Contest / S14W3 -Sidechains
Hello friend greetings to you. Hope you are enjoying your life there.
You said that side chain is an auxiliary or additional chain associated or linked with the main chain. Main Blockchain always carry out major functions while the side chain dealt with minor. Main Blockchain is independent while side is depend. I want to add something that side chain somehow resemble to the plasma chain in characteristics.
You have mentioned different projects lunched on the side chain of the main Blockchains. I want to add it here that HIVE is a project lunched on Steemit main Blockchain. Side chain have many benefits to the main Blockchain, the most primer one is it provide scalability to the main Blockchain.
I wish you very best of luck here in the contest.
Greetings friend,
I agree with you that Side chains handle minor functions while the main chain takes care of the major ones. The main purpose of Side chains is to provide scalability to the main Blockchain, which is super important. It's awesome to see how side chains bring so many benefits to the main Blockchain.
