What Hacker News says?
They decided to do proof-of-stake first, putting shards off until later. Also it started looking like zkrollups could do everything without loss of security or convenience, and with way better scaling than they ever hoped to get with the original sharding plan. So they removed execution from sharding, using it instead as just data for rollups. Then someone came up with "danksharding" which is more like a RAID system…

HN discussionI think you're off a zero, that would put VISA at only 167 tps. From iffy sources I found in a quick google, VISA averages 1700 tps and max capacity is significantly more. Rollups today can do around 2000 tx/sec. Their limit is block space, which will be multiplied by sharding (which in the current design, is more like RAID than actual sharding). A great overview of the roadmap is here: https://members.delphidigital…
