Vitalik’s RISC-V proposal…that’s the equivalent of betting the farm, right? We're talking about ripping out the engine of a Formula 1 car while it's still racing and replacing it with something...potentially faster. The promise? A 100x speed boost for zero-knowledge proofs. A hundred. Now that’s the kind of number that...
Blockchain. The very term itself conjures up visions of either exhilarating, entrepreneurial disruption or a solution in search of a problem. Let’s face it, that grand promise has typically jumped way ahead of the practical use. Business as usual Countless projects have claimed they’ll create a brave new world. Unfortunately,...
Okay, 15.52 million transactions per second (TPS). CertiK verified. Live mainnet. No Layer 2. No gas fees. Qubic is shouting from the rooftops. Before we run out to buy the most expensive new supercomputer that promises to take care of blockchain’s scalability issues, let’s pump the brakes. Now, more than...
With completion of the Qubic Technical Specification, Qubic has officially established a new blockchain technology standard. It reached a mind-blowing transaction speed of 15.52 million transactions per second (TPS) recently on its live Layer 1 mainnet. This milestone exceeds current performance standards by several orders of magnitude and represents a...
The blockchain space is ever-changing, with new projects coming in and challenging established methods with innovations showcasing what’s possible. Another very promising project that has been generating buzz and excitement is Qubic. So, what’s the big deal? Well according to them, they’ve broken a record with 15.52 million TPS! It’s...
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is changing the world of finance. It’s a provocation to the status quo and recalibrates the way people and organizations think about money and assets. DeFi democratizes access to a whole suite of powerful financial tools previously shuttered behind bureaucracy and legalese. Operating like a global, 24/7...
Perhaps you’ve caught their name floating around Crypto Twitter, or even thought about jumping into their DeFi pool. With its millions of users and a big list of supported cryptocurrencies, it’s no wonder that many people are drawn to it. XT Earn ensures you safe and easy passive earnings. XT...
The world of decentralized finance (DeFi) may appear to be a daunting labyrinth of technical communication and speculative frenzy. Below the surface, however, is a deep opportunity. Together, let’s continue to reset the financial landscape to be more accessible, equitable, and, most importantly, human. We're not just talking about making...
Now picture a global financial system where sending money from one country to another is no longer a costly, multi-day ordeal, but a smooth, almost instantaneous process. Or a world where developing country smallholder farmers are paid fairly for their crops, without having to go through exploitative rent-seeking middlemen. This...
World Liberty Financial (WLFI) is an exciting new decentralized finance (DeFi) project. It’s launched nonetheless, with the Trump family behind it, which is their first big foray into DeFi. Founded by DT Marks DEFI and WLF Holdco in September 2024, the initiative aims to pilot a better method of engaging...
We all have to adapt Ethereum, the world’s most popular blockchain platform, is under an unprecedented strain. Scalability One of the primary areas of focus, is the scalability. This dimension highlights the need to process a higher and larger number of transactions in a speedy, user-friendly manner. Vitalik Buterin, the...
Like much of the crypto world, the opinions are varied and robust. For example, founder of rival blockchain Cardano Charles Hoskinson is not afraid to make big predictions. Recently, he's been vocal about his doubts regarding Ethereum's long-term success, even going so far as to question its fundamental protocol and...
Okay, let's be real. When Vitalik starts explaining why instruction set architectures are the least important thing in a computer, we all, myself included, tune out. And just hear me out on this one! This RISC-V technology might be just the thing to unlock Ethereum’s full potential. It’s not only...
Meet the guy who believes Ethereum’s one foot in the grave. Okay, boomer blockchain. While the Cardano founder’s been busy making pronouncements from his digital throne, the NFT community's reaction is less "panic" and more "is this guy serious?"Let’s face it, this is not the first time anyone has announced...
Speaking of grenades, the other Charles—Hoskinson—tossed another one into the crypto pond, making a dramatic prediction that Ethereum will die in 10-15 years. Is he really a visionary, or is this the pot calling the kettle black? In the spirit of vigorous skepticism, let’s take apart his case. After all,...
Cardano Overlord Charles Hoskinson has gone so far as to say that Ethereum will ‘die’ in the long term. He raises alarm over its technological decisions and governance framework. Hoskinson claims that Ethereum is having a hard time keeping up with the recent developments in the recent world of blockchain...
Vitalik Buterin, one of Ethereum’s cofounders, is calling for a radical restructuring of Ethereum’s underlying architecture. He proposes taking the current Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and swapping it out for the open-source RISC-V instruction set architecture. This proposal, advanced by members of the Ethereum Magicians community, is a pragmatic solution...
Bitfinex just released a game-changing announcement! The largest digital asset exchange by trading volume is beginning to offer USDT (Tether) deposits and withdrawals across the Optimism network. This move dramatically increases transaction speeds and reduces costs for users. It maximizes the full benefits provided by layer-2 scaling solutions. For those...
