Moving on from Alameda
Early last year, Alameda acquired Ren in a partnership with the previous Ren leadership, to secure long-term development funding. Alameda has since been funding the development team on a quarterly basis. Last week, the FTX Group, which Alameda falls under, commenced Chapter 11 proceedings. Therefore, the Ren development team only has funding until the end of Q4. The goal of the Ren team has always been to launch an open-source and community-run version of the Ren network, and work towards this goal culminated into what we call Ren 2.0. It is a new architecture based on Geth with our new MPC implementation of FROST, which enables deployment of EVM-based applications on Ren with native multichain support for all blockchains integrated with Ren, and supports all bridging features Ren 1.0 offers as well. The switch to FROST as the MPC protocol lays the ground for a truly decentralized MPC network, as it is scalable to thousands of nodes, which if deployed would make it the most decentralized cross-chain platform live in the Web3 world. A Ren 2.0 testnet is about to be deployed to showcase its capabilities, but there is additional work to test, harden and audit the new architecture, as well as finish new node client interfaces and general developer tooling, which would not be fully ready by the end of Q4. As such, to get to the Ren 2.0 stage where we have a fully open-source and community-run cross-chain network with its own inde...

Ren Development Update | October 2022
The main development focus continues to be on Ren 2.0 — the next stage of Ren — that will enable truly native multichain applications, as well as MPC support for EVM contracts. Moonbeam was also added as a new host chain, and Optimism and Arbitrum testnets were migrated to Goerli. — Ren 2.0 updates - Development of Ren 2.0 and writing out extensive documentation for it will continue to be a key priority for the rest of the year as well as early next year. Big news this month regards Ren 2.0’s leveraging of Geth, which will massively reduce the complexity of building out the Ren 2.0 stack, accelerating its development. — Execution and State. — Ren 2.0 will be using an EVM layer for all execution logic and state management, based on Geth. The main benefits of this design is the massive reduction of complexity for the system, compared to implementing a new fully-fledged blockchain from scratch. Ren 2.0 can launch much earlier, and safer, by leveraging the heavily tested Geth codebase, and benefits from all the continued development and testing being done on Geth in the future. This month the focus was on translating the current bridging and fee management contracts used in Ren 1.0 from Golang to Solidity. — Darknode 2.0. — The new node client that will power Ren 2.0 is being significantly code refactored to improve performance, support the new RenEVM chain, and to future-proof the de...

Ren Development Update | September 2022
The primary focus this month has been the continued development and preparation of the launch of Ren 2.0, involving lots of testing, porting old features to work with the new MPC algorithm, and adding new surprise features! We have also finished our support for Moonbeam and undergone a Ren testnet migration from Kovan to the Goerli network. — Ren 2.0 updates - — DKG. — Distributed key generation (DKG) is a core component in allowing a set of nodes to generate a key pair, such that the public key is output publicly, while the private key is distributed amongst the nodes through secret sharing. The initial implementation of Ren’s DKG protocol is in its final stages of testing. The focus will now shift to integrating it into the new Darknode client, as well as increasing its robustness in such cases where nodes go offline for any reason, which is expected in a decentralized network. — All bridging transaction types integrated with new MPC algorithm. — Minting and burning, as well as the recent host-to-host transaction type, have successfully been integrated with the new FROST algorithm in the new Darknode client! This will ensure that the ecosystem transition between Ren 1.0 and 2.0 will be as smooth as possible. — NFT support. — Surprise! The team has quietly added support for NFTs to Ren 2.0. This will open up Ren to a whole new host of applications and developers who can use Ren. S...

Ren Development Update | August 2022
The month of August has been historic for Ren with the announcement of Ren 2.0 and the progress made since then, which will take the protocol to the next level in terms of security, efficiency, and developer tooling. The first Cosmos chain — Kava — was also integrated into Ren, and work was begun to support more non-Ethereum stablecoins, which will open up more bridge routing pathways and support more use-cases. Finally, the process to begin auditing the upgraded Ren gateway contracts has begun. This will ultimately enable the earliest assets such as $renBTC to migrate to the new version that supports the burn-and-mint functionality, allowing direct any-to-any-chain bridging for Bitcoin, Dogecoin and more. — Ren 2.0 - This month we announced the next iteration of Ren in this emergent multichain world. Ren 2.0 is an open protocol, enabling novel multichain application development with EVM support — leveraging Ren’s robust bridging technology for a new world of opportunities. Check out the announcement blog for more details: medium.com Ren 2.0 boasts improved security, support for generic application logic on top of Ren, an improved MPC algorithm that’s more scalable and able to support more signing schemes, and optimized tokenomics to further align incentives for ecosystem participants.
