 ### Performance
 
-decentralized applications built with Smart Contracts are inherently capped in performance by the underlying environment. For a decentralized application to optimise performance, it needs to be built as an application-specific blockchain. Next are some of the benefits an application-specific blockchain brings in terms of performance:
+Decentralized applications built with Smart Contracts are inherently capped in performance by the underlying environment. For a decentralized application to optimise performance, it needs to be built as an application-specific blockchain. Next are some of the benefits an application-specific blockchain brings in terms of performance:
 
 * Developers of application-specific blockchains can choose to operate with a novel consensus engine such as CometBFT BFT. Compared to Proof-of-Work (used by most virtual-machine blockchains today), it offers significant gains in throughput.
 * An application-specific blockchain only operates a single application, so that the application does not compete with others for computation and storage. This is the opposite of most non-sharded virtual-machine blockchains today, where smart contracts all compete for computation and storage.
