About
Celestia pioneered the modular blockchain thesis: separating a chain's consensus and data-availability layer from its execution layer so that rollups and sovereign chains can plug into a shared, scalable base layer rather than each bootstrapping its own validator set.

Overview
Celestia Labs is the company behind Celestia, a modular blockchain network founded in 2019 (originally under the name LazyLedger) by Mustafa Al-Bassam, Ismail Khoffi, and John Adler.
Celestia separates consensus and data availability from transaction execution, letting developers deploy their own rollups and app-specific chains without bootstrapping a new validator set. Its mainnet and native token, TIA, launched on October 31, 2023.
Private securities are speculative, illiquid, and involve risk of complete loss of principal. You should be prepared to hold private securities for an extended period; there is no assurance of a secondary market, an IPO, or other liquidity event. You are fully responsible for conducting your own due diligence. Pricing is indicative — nothing here is an offer of securities.
