Overview
SKALE is paving the path for the next generation of Blockchain Consensus. Decentralized Systems need greater throughput and lower transaction fees in order to meet the requirements of Decentralized Applications (dApps). Currently dApps with high frequency transactions are being made unusable due to latency and high transaction fees.
