RELAY UPDATE MAY 2022 — About Relay

RELAY UPDATE MAY 2022 — About Relay It’s time for an update on the many exciting developments on RelayChain. The market is tough for everyone involved in crypto right now. The total market cap has gone from nearly 3T down to almost 1T. From large caps to micro caps, nearly every project has been impacted. It’s times such as this, that long term sustainable projects will separate themselves from the ones that ultimately won’t survive. The RelayChain team accepts that challenge and we’re motivated to emerge from this bearish phase as a vital cog in the machine that is DeFi. Rest assured that our bridge development has not, and will not halt. We have enough runway to continue our operations in spite of the market trend. Let’s dive in and discuss what has been happening behind the scenes!Relay Bridge v2 Development is well under way and we’re excited about what is being constructed under the hood. We’ve recently onboarded some incredibly talented new developers. The new devs come to us from Canada based, dApp Technology Inc. We know that we are behind on our original v2 timeline, but it will all be worth it once the new product rolls out. Initially we had planned to deliver each new feature individually, before realizing that it made more sense to launch most of it at once. Rather than bolting on an array of new parts to the existing bridge to create some kind of “Frankenbridge,” we decided it was best t...

Relay launches the new Bridge Bounty Blitz program! — About Relay

Relay launches the new Bridge Bounty Blitz program! — About Relay The Relay team is excited to be introducing a new program that will reward motivated community members. The Bridge Bounty Blitz (BBB) will be a reward program that is essentially a “finder’s fee” for bringing new tokens or even new chains to Relay. Help your favorite alt coins to go cross-chain and get paid for it! With literally tens of thousands of crypto projects in existence, it’s hard to have deep familiarity with all of them. We know that Relay community members are involved in multiple other projects. This program is a way to help Relay to connect with those projects.How does it work? Relay is moving to a fee for expedited listing model. Projects can pay a one time fixed fee to have their project listed on the bridge within 1–3 business days. If a community member connects the Relay team with a project, and that project moves forward with an expedited bridge listing, then the user will be paid 25% of the listing fee as soon as the deal closes! The Remaining 75% will be used to support Relay initiatives like buybacks and staking rewards. Beyond new token listing, if community members connect Relay with a new L1 or L2 blockchain and they use our wrapped assets as “official assets” then a volume based reward will be offered based on bridging activity in the first month.What do I need to do? Simply have an initial conversation with yo...

    Blocknative, a real-time Ethereum (ETH) infrastructure platform, has newly introduced features including transaction bundle send, cancellation, and replacement support for the Blocknative Builder. Searchers can now submit MEV bundles privately to the Blocknative Builder to be included on-chain. This market utility builds upon Blocknative’s reliable, real-time infrastructure that is systematically important to the Ethereum ecosystem. 'MEV bundle control is an important element of our block-building capabilities. As Ethereum evolves, we remain committed to providing real-time infrastructure that supports transparency, accessibility, and decentralization block by block. To reduce friction and facilitate adoption, we have prioritized ease of use by ensuring that our API-level implementation is cross-compatible with the broader builder ecosystem.” - Matt Cutler, CEO & Co-Founder of Blocknative Searchers can quickly add the Blocknative Builder to their bundle workflow. The bundle RPC endpoint uses direct payments instead of gas prices to make payments conditional on their transaction succeeding, thus avoiding having to pay for failed bids. With over 269,000 validators connected to the Blocknative Relay via MEV-Boost, searchers can use the Blocknative bundle RPC endpoint to increase their Builder reach and increase the likelihood that their bundles successfully get on-chain. Searchers can learn more here or interact with the RPC endpoint here. The post ETH infrastru... read More



Polkadot (DOT) Ecosystem Grew Massively In Q4 2022, What To Expect Next?

    Polkadot provides interoperability among several blockchains for users while maintaining high scalability and speed in processing transactions. Also known as a multichain network, Polkadot supports many parachains, enabling developers to build their blockchains seamlessly. Several blockchain projects exist in the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector. These platforms usually emerge with different products and services related to cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. Subsequently, users became intrigued with the full potential packed in the DeFi space. However, there was the challenge of how a user could access more than one blockchain and DeFi application through a single platform. This is where the value proposition of the Polkadot became prominent. The last few months in 2022 were tough in the crypto market as most crypto assets and projects saw a drastic drop in performance. In addition, the unexpected collapse of the FTX crypto exchange brought a devastating condition that created losses in the crypto space. However, DOT has a positive story to tell. The multichain network reports massive growth in its ecosystem during Q4 2022. 1/ The Polkadot 2022 Roundup is here Despite the difficult year for the industry, the Polkadot and Kusama community were busy building the largest, & most diverse ecosystem of use case specific layer-1 blockchains in the world, making huge strides toward building a better web. pic.twitter.com/sGZDz0zHIW — Polkadot (@Polkadot) December 31,... read More



Core Scientific Files for Bankruptcy Protection, Firm Plans to Continue ...

    On Dec. 21, 2022, one of the largest bitcoin mining operations in the industry, Core Scientific, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the Southern District of Texas. According to the filing, Core Scientific has roughly 1,000 to 5,000 creditors and its estimated assets are worth between $1-10 billion.Core Scientific Voluntarily Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection, Company's Largest Unsecured Creditor Is the Financial Institution B. Riley Another crypto firm has filed for bankruptcy protection as the crypto winter has caused a myriad of businesses to shudder this year. On Wednesday, Core Scientific (Nasdaq: CORZ), one of the largest bitcoin mining companies, filed for bankruptcy in Texas. The filing notes that Core Scientific has $1-10 billion in assets, but also $1-10 billion in liabilities as well. Additionally, Core Scientific details that the largest creditor is the financial institution B. Riley, alongside 1,000 to 5,000 other creditors. Core Scientific joins a long list of crypto firms that have filed for bankruptcy protection this year, and is one of several crypto mining operations that have faltered financially as well. For instance, in late Sept. 2022, Compute North filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Financial issues have struck bitcoin mining operations like Argo Blockchain, Iris Energy, and Greenidge Generation. Greenidge managed to secure a restructuring deal with NYDIG on Dec. 20, but Greenidge's financials say voluntary bankruptcy is stil... read More



Blockdaemon Empowers Web3 Devs and Institutions to Run Their Own Collato...

    [PRESS RELEASE - Los Angeles, United States, 24th August 2022] Astar Network, the innovation hub on Polkadot, is thrilled to announce that it has integrated Blockdaemon, the world’s largest institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure company for node management and staking, as a collator. The partnership will enable Blockdaemon’s institutional and individual users to start their own collator nodes with Astar Network. Though Astar supports users who maintain their own collator nodes, it’s still technically out of reach for many individuals and institutions joining its network. Blockdaemon’s suite of products and tools comprise a total ‘node stack’ of blockchain technology empowering any eligible project to access the Astar Network. As a node infrastructure provider, Blockdaemon will provide Websocket and RPC endpoints to projects wishing to build on the network. Often, it is not feasible for many projects, devs and businesses to build and maintain their own Astar node to access these services. Blockdaemon’s years of node blockchain expertise specifically for the Polkadot ecosystem significantly lowers the barrier to entry for projects building on Astar. Blockdaemon’s full node support provides a critical on-ramp for Astar dApp developers and institutions. Rather than relying on public infrastructure, which can come under heavy load from many different sources, or facing the ongoing challenges of self-running an Astar node, it i... read More



Revolut Launches Crypto Learn and Earn Feature

    Revolut, a global financial app, has joined a growing list of companies advancing cryptocurrency education through the 'Learn and Earn' initiative. The concept rewards users with crypto for learning about essential topics in the blockchain industry. Revolut Partners Polkadot to Launch 'Learn and Earn' In a press release shared with CryptoPotato, Revolut, valued at $33 billion, said the feature is available to all its customers, and they can earn up to $15 for completing the courses and passing a final quiz. The British neobank also noted that it launched the new feature in collaboration with the Web3 Foundation, the founder of multichain network Polkadot. The rewards distributed to learners will be in DOT, Polkadot's native cryptocurrency. Revolut said it currently has two short courses. The first covers basic concepts about cryptocurrencies and their underlying blockchain technology. It also educates users on the differences between cryptocurrency and fiat currency and the risks associated with the crypto market. The second focuses on Polkdadot and how it helps 'unites blockchains into Web3.' It also covers DOT, Polkadot's uses cases, and key features on the network, such as governance and Relay Chain. The UK-based banking platform said it would continue to expand its Learn and Earn program, adding more courses to help advance crypto education and financial literacy. “There’s a huge appetite from our customers to learn more about cryptocurrencies. ‘Learn & ... read More



Bitcoin's Pizza Day 12th Anniversary: 2 Pizzas for 10,000 BTC

    On May 22, the cryptocurrency community celebrates international Bitcoin Pizza Day. Less than two years after Satoshi Nakamoto published the nine-page Bitcoin whitepaper, Laszlo Hanyecz legitimized the use of cryptocurrency with the purchase of two pizzas for 10,000 BTC. Bitcoin Pizza Day There are thousands of cryptocurrencies, but Bitcoin, even to this day, remains an undeniably ingenious manifestation of blockchain technology. From modest beginnings to a trillion-dollar market cap, Bitcoin has stood the test of time. Laszlo Hanyecz was indeed one of the early contributors responsible for what many consider a fundamental marketing masterpiece for Bitcoin adoption. In the initial days, there weren't any reliable venues where Bitcoin trades can be conducted. Instead, BTC was traded via direct communication through discussion boards and Internet Relay Chat rooms. This was the time when the cryptocurrency, helmed as an experimental technology, was worth only a few cents. The Florida-based programmer, Hanyecz, went on to become the first person to use Bitcoin in a commercial transaction after paying 10,000 BTC for two Papa John's pizzas on May 22, 2010. At the time of purchase, Bitcoin was worth $41. Today, 10,000 BTC would today cost around $300 million. Beyond Pizza Purchases Laszlo Hanyecz is more than just 'that guy' who bought Pizzas with 10,000 BTC that the internet loves to sensationalize. In honor of Bitcoin Pizza Day, let's look into his groundbreaking contributions bey... read More



Mangata Finance's Polkadot-based Efficient, MEV-Free DEX Coming Ju...

    Mangata Finance, the Polkadot-based DEX, is all set for launch on June 6th. Recently, it had a successful crowdloan that was closed in just under an hour that secured it a slot on Polkadot’s innovation network Kusama. Over $2 million in value was bonded through the crowdloan, a process of staking Polkadot (DOT) tokens to support a specific project in the Polkadot Slot Auction, in return for which participants receive rewards from the projects. The project also raised $4.2 million in equity, which came shortly after the launch of its first blockchain on the Kusama network, which raised the Polkadot startup's valuation to $60 million. New investors including Signum Capital, IVC, Figment, ZMT Capital, AngelDAO, and Paribu Ventures joined the returning investors Altonomy, Polychain, and TRGC in this strategic round. 'Altonomy believes in Mangata's efforts around connecting major blockchains, improving security for traders, and helping reduce fees by eliminating gas from the equation, which is why we returned for a second round of funding,' said Altonomy Director Ricky Li. Olaf Carlson-Wee, the founder and CEO of investment firm Polychain Capital, was actually the first one to fund Mangata's vision of efficient DEXes without MEV. Leveraging Polkadot Interoperability The Slovakia-based Mangata is both a blockchain and DEX that will be connected as a parachain in the Polkadot ecosystem. By choosing Polkadot for its multi-purpose DEX, Mangata wants to leverage the key value pro... read More



Polkadot XCM Format Goes Live, Enables NFT Functionalities

    Cross-chain interoperability protocol Polkadot has announced the launch of its messaging system dubbed XCM (cross-consensus messaging) to allow communication and transfer of digital assets between its parachains. Polkadot Launches Cross-Chain Messaging In a press release shared with CryptoPotato on Wednesday, the project noted that messages sent across XCM channels are fully secured at the same level as its Relay Chain, unlike other bridging systems that create a “weakest-link problem.” Polkadot’s Relay Chain is the network’s central hub used by all chains in the ecosystem. It can support hundreds of parachains, and many projects have already been built on it, including  Acala and Centrifuge. All of these parachains can now communicate and transfer digital assets and data with each other. “Parachains, which support a wide range of use cases and protocols - and already benefit from shared security - can now use XCM to transfer any asset, token, or data among themselve,” the project said in the release. XCM to Enable Communication With Other Networks Aside from allowing interoperability between parachains, XCM was designed to support messages between smart contracts and Substrate runtime modules, commonly known as pallets. Polkadot also noted that it is working on iterations that will enable communication with any network that is able to decode messages and scale, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Polkadot’s canary network Kusama.

Pocket Network Adds Abundant Bandwidth to Fantom Blockchain

    [PRESS RELEASE - Tampa, United States, 28th April 2022] Fantom and Pocket node runners can now earn POKT for servicing Fantom traffic from applications, tools, services, and protocols Pocket Network, a relay infrastructure middleware protocol that provides limitless blockchain bandwidth from a globally distributed network of 44k+ full nodes to applications in Web3 across 45 blockchains, including Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, Fuse, Avalanche, and Harmony, today announced it is adding support for Fantom Blockchain, the highly scalable blockchain platform for DeFi, crypto dApps, and enterprise applications. Officially supporting Fantom within the Pocket Network enables developers to mint Fantom RPC endpoints for their applications directly from the Pocket Portal, enabling node runners to, for the first time, earn $POKT for servicing Fantom traffic from applications, tools, services, and protocols. “Centralized RPC providers are often susceptible to single points of failure that can bring down service,” said Michael O’Rourke, Co-Founder and CEO of Pocket Network. “After successfully whitelisting support for the Fantom network with the 0049 Relay Chain ID, we’re proud to announce that Pocket Network is bringing decentralization to Fantom and, for the first time, providing incentives and rewards for node operators.” Adding Pocket Network support for Fantom blockchain brings true decentralization to Fantom’s remote procedure call (RPC), allowi... read More



EYWA: Building Cross-Chain Interoperability for DeFi Protocols 

    The decentralized finance (DeFi) sector is growing by leaps and bounds. Today, there are hundreds of DeFi applications offering users vast earning opportunities with billions of dollars traded and locked across these protocols. However, as more of these DeFi platforms emerge, they become even more complicated for the average user to understand. Those who understand often have to deal with moving from one blockchain to the other to complete transactions since there is little interoperability between these protocols. EYWA is aiming to improve interactions between multiple blockchains and help users seamlessly participate in the DeFi market. What is EYWA? EYWA is a cross-chain interoperability protocol that enables blockchain networks to improve each other's ecosystems via liquidity, community, and integration of a diverse range of DeFi protocols. EYWA aims to create a global cross-chain interoperability system that offers the fast, cheap and seamless transfer of value and arbitrary data between smart contract-enabled blockchains. The project's vision is to create the next generation of cross-chain DeFi protocols that will not only work within heterogeneous DeFi ecosystems but also between them. EYWA believes that this close interaction between blockchains will create new market opportunities and promising use cases. EYWA is taking steps to achieve its vision, hence its ecosystem is bringing together several DeFi projects and blockchain networks and solving the problem of fragme... read More

'Entain's forward-looking networking team recognized the need for a Web3-ready connectivity system as they move into entertainment in the metaverse a... read More



As More Parachains Go Live, Polkadot's Vision Becomes Reality ...

    Gavin Wood’s vision of an interoperable network of customized blockchains is really taking shape. While 11 parachains have launched so far, by this time next year, Polkadot will have grown to more than 40 individual blockchains living on its network, dramatically expanding what has already become one of the most innovative ecosystems within the crypto space. Polkadot is a Layer Zero protocol that serves as the nerve center of multiple parachains - Layer One blockchains built for different applications and use cases. This infrastructure enables the creation of a unique ecosystem of truly interoperable blockchains that all share the same network security and capabilities, with no need for complex token bridges to connect them all. Polkadot’s Relay Chain can support anywhere from 100 to 250 parachains, and, as mentioned, almost a dozen projects are already building on it. To launch a parachain and gain access to a myriad of benefits the Relay Chain provides, projects must compete for a slot via an auction where the winner is determined by whichever locks up the most DOT tokens. Auction Action To secure a parachain, projects seek to raise DOT via crowdloans from their communities, offering their own native tokens in return for their backing. Whichever project wins a slot is entitled to lease that parachain for two years, during which time the bonded DOT tokens will remain locked up. Once the two-year period is up, those tokens will be returned to their owners, who als... read More

Polkadot (DOT) Polkadot allows for the interconnection of multiple different blockchains. It was founded by the Web3 Foundation, which aims to develop a decentralized web. In addition to the central Relay Chain, Polkadot uses multiple parallel blockchains, called parachains, to provide interoperability that allows for the exchange of various types of data and value. Operating blockchains in parallel solves the scalability problem while also increasing safety by pooling the security functions of the parachains into the Relay Chain. Tezos (XTZ) Tezos is a decentralized, public blockchain and smart contract platform. Stakeholders of the Tezos network vote on amendments to the protocol to reach social consensus on proposals, creating a secure and organic upgrading mechanism. The protocol’s on-chain governance system, its consensus algorithm based on Proof-of-Stake(PoS), and its ability to facilitate formal verification of smart contracts, make Tezos an ideal solution for high-value financial applications.

Blockdaemon to operate node for blockchain energy infrastructure system ...

    Blockdaemon, an independent blockchain infrastructure platform & staking-as-a-service provider, today announced a new partnership with Energy Web, a global nonprofit organization building operating systems for energy grids using open-source decentralized technologies. As a certified Energy Web validator node operator, Blockdaemon will work to support the success of the Energy Web Foundation and ecosystem. Energy Web’s digital operating systems for energy utilize the application of blockchain. It represents one of the largest and most ambitious uses of a decentralized, open-access, consumer-facing blockchain that the world has seen to date. “We are excited to help with the energy transition of the world by supporting the Energy Web Chain and its ecosystem participants. Anyblock has been a validator and active participant from day 1. Now, as part of the Blockdaemon team, we happily continue this collaboration and are looking forward to help expand to the Polkadot universe and offering staking opportunities.” - Freddy Zwanzger, Ethereum Ecosystem Lead at Blockdaemon Because the Energy Web Chain is managed by known entities in the energy sector, upgrades to the network can be rolled out seamlessly. This avoids contentious hard forks which split many blockchains in governance disputes over the future of the protocol. Another advantage is custody and maintenance. The Energy Web Foundation is building sophisticated tooling on top of the blockchain to help... read More



Centrifuge Wins Polkadot's 9th Parachain Slot

    Centrifuge – a decentralized asset financing protocol –  just won an auction for a parachain slot on Polkadot. Like other parachains from Polkadot’s second group of parachain auctions, it is expected to launch on March 11th. Centrifuge Meets Polkadot The protocol announced its auction victory in a blog post on Thursday. The team says they are “all systems go” to bring its functionality to Polkadot. Centrifuge is used to bridge non-digitally native, real-world assets into decentralized finance. It is intended to allow users to finance real estate and earn royalties without the use of intermediaries and banks, among other things. Meanwhile, a ‘parachain’ is a blockchain that runs parallel to Polkadot’s central Relay chain, but with an application-specific data structure. They are designed to achieve scalability and added functionality for the Polkadot ecosystem. The initial parachain launch will reportedly be an “empty shell”, in order to confirm its stability on Polkadot. That means it will produce blocks, but without any functionality to the chain, nor any concept of governance, balances, staking, or user accounts. Afterward, the current Centrifuge chain will undergo a hard fork, transitioning from being a standalone chain to Polkadot’s 9th parachain. Upon launch, Tinlake – a Defi protocol and marketplace for real-world asset pools – will go live on the chain as well, connecting liquidity from ... read More



PureStake CEO Derek Yoo Explains the Technology Behind Moonbeam Network

    Moonbeam is an Ethereum-compatible smart contract platform on the Polkadot network that makes it easy to build natively interoperable applications. This Ethereum compatibility allows developers to deploy existing Solidity smart contracts and DApp frontends to Moonbeam with minimal changes. Derek Yoo is the CEO of PureStake, the technology company behind the Moonbeam Network. He recently joined the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to talk about the technology: Derek Yoo is a serial Web2 technology entrepreneur who has spent the past 20 years building successful software and cloud companies. Prior to creating Moonbeam, Derek was the co-founder and CTO of Fuze, where he led the product and engineering teams in the creation of a global Unified Communications-as-a-Service cloud platform with points of presence all around the world, a low latency global network, and a suite of end user web, desktop, and mobile communications applications. During his time at Fuze, the company grew to 700 employees and a $150M run rate. Like Moonriver, its sister parachain on Kusama, Moonbeam is expected to accumulate developer and user activity from the 80+ projects building DApps and protocols on the network. As a parachain on the Polkadot network, Moonbeam benefits from the shared security of the Polkadot Relay Chain and integrations with other chains that are connected to Polkadot.

DIA is the First Oracle to Integrate with Astar Network

    DIA is the first oracle provider to integrate its oracle infrastructure with the Astar Network, running on the Polkadot Relaychain. The oracle deployment will facilitate DeFi applications on Astar to easily connect to the outside world data. The open-source data provider DIA announced today the integration of its decentralized oracle infrastructure with the Astar Network, running on the Polkadot Relaychain. This oracle deployment will facilitate DeFi applications on Astar to easily connect to the outside world data via DIA’s trusted oracles. Astar Network, previously known as Plasm, is a dApp hub on Polkadot that supports Ethereum, WebAssembly, and layer 2 solutions like ZK Rollups. Astar Network won the 3rd Polkadot parachain auction on December 2, 2021, and onboarded to the Polkadot Relay Chain on December 18, 2021. As the Polkadot Relay Chain doesn’t support smart contracts, Astar is working to provide a solution for all developers by parachain where EVM and WebAssembly smart contracts can co-exist and communicate with each other. Thanks to Astar’s Ethereum and WebAssembly compatibility, DeFi applications can seamlessly be deployed on Astar’s parachain, where DIA will be able to feed them with accurate and transparent market data. DIA’s price feed oracles will fuel a range of use cases, such as lending and borrowing protocols, stablecoins, staking rewards and many more. To build the data feeds, DIA simultaneously aggregates price data at a ver... read More
