Four documents, the same five questions.
No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.
| Question | Nightshade: NEAR's sharding design |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | Nightshade is NEAR's sharding design: chunks of a block are produced per shard and a block attests to those chunks, so one validator need not execute every shard. |
| Who may write | NEAR team |
| What is settled | A block contains a header plus chunks. A validator assigned to a shard produces the chunk. Others attest. |
| Load-bearing assumption | This note does not say the live network matches every section of the paper. |
| What this library says afterwards | A reading of the project's public design document. Not a copy, not a benchmark, and not an offer. |
