@Mitosis Official #Mitosis $MITO

In the context of blockchain, "Mitosis" is not a specific project name, but a powerful metaphor and design concept. It vividly describes a technological solution to the core challenge of blockchain—Scalability: Sharding.

You can understand it as: a vast blockchain network, in order to handle more transactions, divides itself like cell division into multiple smaller, parallel-processable "sub-chains".

Core Metaphor: Cell Division vs. Blockchain Division

Aspect Biology Mitosis Blockchain Mitosis

Process A mother cell divides into two genetically identical (exactly the same) daughter cells. A main blockchain divides into multiple shards that serve the same function but process different data.

Purpose Growth and Expansion: To make the organism larger and more complex. Scaling and Speeding Up: To enable the blockchain network to handle more transactions, faster and cheaper.

Result Multiple cells work in parallel, collectively sustaining the organism. Multiple shard chains process transactions in parallel, collectively maintaining the network.

Core Principle Chromosomes are replicated and evenly distributed. Network state, transaction history, and computational tasks are divided and allocated.
