Title: ETH Blockchain Has More Queries Per Day Than GOOGLE????
Post by: brandonmb on March 09, 2018, 12:53:01 AM
We recently heard some surprising data about the number of queries that Infura (large ETH blockchain supernode) handles, and it got us thinking about why there are so many more queries than transactions on the blockchain. Are DApps just inefficiently coded? Is there something about the blockchain itself? And what impact does so many queries have on the scalability and decentralized nature of the blockchain?
