Celestia’s mainnet is expected to launch tomorrow along with its native token, which will become available for trading on centralized exchanges.
A Celestia contributor confirmed the launch timeline to The Block. Celestia’s GitHub repository also indicates a due date for the mainnet launch of Oct. 31. Upon the anticipated mainnet launch tomorrow, a maximum of 1 billion tokens will be minted on the network. This means the airdrop accounts for 6% of the total supply.Unlike monolithic Layer 1 blockchains such as Ethereum and Solana, Celestia aims to be a modular network. This design intends to make it easier for developers to create new blockchains using its platform.
