BlockchainDB - A Shared Database on Blockchains
Summary: BlockchainDB adds a database layer atop blockchain storage, enabling classical data management (e.g., sharding) and a standardized query interface. This yields improved performance, scalability, and reduced adoption complexity for data-sharing use cases. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
