Celestia Core will power the Celestia main chain by leveraging Tendermint.

Celestia itself is a scale-out data availability-focused minimal blockchain. It allows users to post arbitrary data on the chain, as well as define their own execution layers. This data is ordered on-chain but not executed. This allows for the first scalable data layer for decentralised applications, including optimistic rollup sidechains. Additionally, this design allows developers to define their own execution environments.

Celestia Core uses Semantic Versioning to determine when and how the version changes. According to SemVer, anything in the public API can change at any time before version 1.0.0
