What problem does modularity solve?

Monolithic chains force every transaction to be processed by every full node, which bounds throughput. Modular chains let execution happen on specialized high-throughput layers while settlement and DA run on smaller, more decentralized layers. The result is higher throughput without sacrificing decentralization — in theory. In practice, whether modular chains beat monoliths on the final UX is an open question.

How did EIP-4844 change the modular DA thesis?

EIP-4844 added blob storage to Ethereum, cutting DA costs for L2s by roughly 90%. Before 4844, dedicated DA layers like Celestia had a large cost advantage. After 4844, Ethereum's blob space became cheap enough that most new L2s chose Ethereum DA over Celestia or Avail. This compressed TIA's valuation significantly. The thesis now depends on blob capacity constraints emerging as L2 count grows.

Is Celestia still relevant after 4844?

Celestia still has a meaningful cost advantage for high-throughput rollups that need more DA than Ethereum blobs can deliver. Several app-chains (Eclipse, Manta, Dymension) have stuck with Celestia DA. But the absolute growth has slowed, and new L2s heavily default to Ethereum DA unless they have specific high-bandwidth requirements.

What's the difference between parallel EVM and standard EVM?

Standard EVM processes transactions sequentially — one at a time, in block order. Parallel EVM (Monad, Sei v2, MegaETH) uses optimistic concurrency control to execute independent transactions in parallel, then resolves any conflicts. The result is much higher throughput on workloads where transactions don't all touch the same state. DeFi-heavy workloads with lots of shared AMM state benefit less than long-tail app workloads.

Which modular tokens are investable?

Celestia (TIA) for DA exposure, with the caveat that it's facing a tough post-4844 environment. Avail (AVAIL) is the second-largest DA token. Monad (MON) and Movement (MOVE) are pre-token or early-token plays on parallel execution. Dymension (DYM) is a modular settlement layer for app-chains. The sector is narrower than it looks because Ethereum is capturing most modular demand.
