What's the Deal with MegaETH? 🤔

The upcoming Vitalik-backed L2 wants to be the 'real-time Ethereum'

What's its plan? Find out 👇

MegaETH, an upcoming L2 branded as the “real-time Ethereum” boasting sub-millisecond latency and capable of processing over 100k transactions per seco nd (TPS), just announced that it has received $20M in seed funding at a $100M + valuation!

The big names involved have attracted some major attention to the upstart chain.

Today, we’re discussing how MegaETH is innovating on contemporary Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) blockchain implementations to provide industry-leading performance capabilities and decentralization guarantees.

⭐️ What Makes MegaETH Special
High-performance alt L1s require their nodes to perform identical tasks without specialization, imposing a fundamental tradeoff between performance and decentralization. In comparison, MegaETH takes advantage of Ethereum’s L2s technology to create differentiated roles for nodes with varying hardware requirements.

MegaETH decouples the task of transaction processing from full nodes and creates three major roles for infrastructure operators: sequencers, provers, and full nodes. Although actual block production becomes increasingly centralized with MegaETH, flexible hardware requirements from node specialization ensures trustless block validation and could provide industry-leading decentralization guarantees.

A single active MegaETH sequencer will be responsible for ordering and executing user transactions, eliminating the consensus process during normal operations, and will pass state differences (i.e.; changes to the blockchain’s state) to full nodes via a peer-to-peer network, who then apply the state diffs to update their local state. Notably, MegaETH transactions are not re-executed by full nodes to verify block integrity; they instead validate blocks indirectly using proofs provided by the prover.

While blockchains have frequently turned to one-off solutions like parallelization in their pursuit of scale, enabling transactions touching different parts of state to be processed simultaneously on multiple CPU cores, the benefits of this specific approach are limited by the fact that many transactions contain dependencies, resulting in only modest boosts from parallelization for blockchain speed.

Such ambitions necessitate scaling node hardware to its limits while preserving decentralization (achieved through specialization) and require the creation of a system innately designed to approach the theoretical upper performance limit for a decentralized blockchain.

To this end, the MegaETH sequencer will store the entirety of its state in-memory and be the first blockchain to implement in-memory compute, a critical feature for high-performance Web2 applications that should enable MegaETH to accelerate state access by 1,000x compared to alternative solid state drive storage methods utilized by competitors.

🧐 Closing Thoughts
The significant performance improvements targeted by MegaETH over contemporary EVM implementations should provide a major boost to L2 performance and could finally produce a decentralized blockchain capable of handling real-world adoption!

Although some contend that MegaETH is best suited as a competitor against an Ethereum ecosystem largely uninterested in scaling its base layer, the optimizations achieved by MegaETH are made possible solely through its ability to outsource security and censorship resistance to existing decentralized networks, like Ethereum and EigenLayer.

ORIGIN TRAIL

OriginTrail is an ecosystem that was originally designed with the aim of bringing blockchain technology into supply chain logistics and optimizing the management of data related to real assets in the digital space.

Launched in 2017 by 3 co-founders, OriginTrail offers a reliable platform for product sharing, authentication and tracking. Since then, the platform has evolved well and now integrates AI into its process. The idea is to create an ecosystem where autonomous AI agents make it possible to optimize data analysis to identify and solve logistical problems.

How does OriginTrail work?

At the heart of OriginTrail is the Decentralized Knowledge Graph (DKG), a vast interconnected network that allows unprecedented traceability, from the origin of a product to its final destination.

Unlike other blockchain solutions such as VeChain, OriginTrail's DKG offers unique multi-chain interoperability, allowing the smooth integration of data from different blockchains and even traditional systems.

When a manufacturer adds information about a product, it is distributed and stored securely on several nodes in the network, ensuring their integrity and availability.

The integration of artificial intelligence by OriginTrail also plays a crucial role in the analysis of this data. AI can quickly identify trends, detect anomalies and even predict potential problems in the supply chain.

OriginTrail also develops specialized "AI agents", designed to interact autonomously with the DKG, performing complex tasks such as regulatory compliance verification or logistics optimization.

Finally, the other key aspect of the system is confidentiality and data control. Companies using OriginTrail have precise control over their information, deciding which data to share publicly and which to keep private.

What is magicblock?

It's a taste of what's to come in the Solana gaming scene 🎮

A beginner's guide to the Onchain Game Engine 👇

Onchain game engines make it easier to build games with no external dependencies beyond their underlying blockchain.

To me, this is one of the most exciting areas of development in crypto today, and that’s why my curiosity was piqued when I recently came across MagicBlock Engine.

MagicBlock is a game engine that’s innovated an Ephemeral Rollups architecture for powering flexible and performant onchain games on Solana.

I think MagicBlock is an interesting look into what's to come in the Solana gaming scene, so let’s catch you up on all the basics.

What Is MagicBlock?
MagicBlock is a gaming framework built on top of Solana, designed to facilitate the development of fully onchain games and apps.

Recently, MagicBlock Engine showcased its capabilities at an a16zcrypto Demo Day event.

The demo featured a real-time, fully onchain game deployed entirely on Solana, and two clients played the game simultaneously with no lag thanks to the MagicBlock’s ability to delegate accounts into fast Solana validators.

What Are Ephemeral Rollups?
MagicBlock extends Solana's capabilities by introducing Ephemeral Rollups (ERs), which are designed to efficiently facilitate state transitions without fragmenting a game’s state.

MagicBlock’s Other Main Features

⚡️ BOLT — A framework that uses the Entity Component System (ECS) pattern to streamline the development of onchain games. It allows developers to quickly create modular, reusable, and extendable game components and logic.

🪪 SOAR — SOAR stands for Solana Onchain Achievement & Ranking. This reputation system lets developers readily define achievements based on onchain activities, track and display user rankings, and deploy rewards.

🔑 Session keys — MagicBlock recently helped add support for session keys in the Solana Unity SDK, making it easier for its game devs to eliminate the need for repeated wallet popups during frequent in-game interactions in a secure fashion.

MagicBlock’s angle is to bypass these fragmentation issues by keeping assets on mainnet Solana, thus maintaining the possibility for atomic composability, while still achieving scalability with ERs. This way you get high throughput, customizable runtimes, and the ability for games and apps to seamlessly interact without needing interoperability solutions.

What to Watch Going Forward?
1. MagicBlock is new and still rearing up. Which onchain game will be the first to officially use this engine?

2. The recent MagicBlock demo achieved 50ms latency, which is competitive with modern gaming standards. Can we expect further optimizations that bring this latency even lower for even better real-time gameplay?

3. Earlier this year, Parallel announced its AI game Colony would be based on Solana. Could the Parallel team adopt MagicBlock Engine to meet its infrastructure needs here?

4. With MagicBlock maintaining assets on the Solana mainnet, developers have the potential for atomic composability. What use cases will emerge from this capability?

5. Onchain games benefit greatly from user-generated content (UGC) and user-generated logic (UGL). Will the SOAR system be used to incentivize these sorts of creations?

The Bottom Line
While MagicBlock is still in its early stages, its potential to catalyze Solana’s fully onchain gaming scene seems considerable, as its Ephemeral Rollups architecture can help it bypass key challenges faced by other gaming engines while still ensuring high performance. Looking ahead, be sure to stay updated on the team’s progress by following them on Twitter— they’re ones to watch in my opinion!

4⃣ Mutant Garden Seeder

4⃣ Mutant Garden Seeder
Creator: harmvddorpel

Current Floor: 1.07 ETH

Why It's Undervalued: In my opinion, one of the most exceptional art series to come out of NFTs in 2021 was Mutant Garden Seeder by artist Harm van den Dorpel. In short, each of the 512 pieces in the collection dynamically evolve over time per Ethereum block hashes, making it a really compelling exploration of living art and digital organisms.

All that said, I believe a floor of ~1 ETH is just too low for a collection of this caliber, and I wouldn't be surprised to see these pieces trading around 4 ETH again within a few years as new collectors wise up to Harm's works.

His words were👇

“It’s an L2 that doesn’t need a security council multisig, users don’t need to switch chain ids, doesn’t need a governance token, doesn’t need an external sequencer, solana validators still get all the transaction fees.

It’s like an L2 without all the things that people complain about L2s.”

The Open Network has been a rare rocket ship during choppy markets 🚀

Here's how you can get started with the chain 👇

It's been hard to miss the rise of $TON over the past few months

Thanks to its integration with Telegram
& persistent price action The Open Network ecosystem continues to gain traction rapidly

These are the most active areas in the ton_blockchain
:

🎮 Telegram-Based P2E Games

Gaming has become a stand-out feature for TON, first with Notcoin and now with other games like CatizenAI and Hamster Kombat.

In summary, gaming on TON, whether through Catizen or Hamster Kombat, offers some (very) simple entertainment and real-world rewards, making it an attractive option for early speculators.

🔒 Liquid-Stake your TON for additional rewards

Like most PoS ecosystems, liquid staking with Tonstakers or Bemo Finance lets you use your TON to earn additional rewards.

- bemo_finance is another non-custodial liquid staking protocol on TON. It allows users to stake TON tokens and receive $stTON tokens in return that can be freely used in DeFi and increase in value as staking rewards are earned.

Both Tonstakers and Bemo Finance offer excellent opportunities for users to earn rewards through staking, making them valuable tools for maximizing your TON holdings.

🫳 Swap tokens on DEXs

DEXs lie at the center of TON’s DeFi ecosystem to drive the network forward, particularly http://STON.fi and DeDust.

💰 Lend through money markets

Lending platforms on TON offer additional ways to leverage your assets and turn a profit.

- evaaprotocol is a lending platform on the TON network that allows users to lend and borrow assets like TON, stTON, $tsTON , and $USDT directly from Telegram.

With double-digit interest rates for TON and USDT, the platform stands out as a competitive option for participating in DeFi and earning additional yield on your TON — way higher than with staking! The protocol currently has an XP points program, which can be later burned in exchange for the $EVAA token when it launches.

-
daolama_ton offers NFT lending for TON, currently supporting over 35 collections. On the platform, users can choose an NFT they’d like to rent out in exchange for TON, create a proposal, and then, when confirmed, receive TON based on the proposal's guidelines. Additionally, DAOLama’s marketplace offers a Buy Now, Pay Later feature for NFTs, allowing you to purchase NFTs like Anonymous Telegram Numbers 👀 for 41 TON instead of 113 TON.

In conclusion, Evaa Protocol and DAOLama TON offer unique and user-friendly lending solutions, providing even more avenues for earning yield on TON.

🤑 Trade crypto derivatives

For fans of derivatives trading, TON comes ready for platforms for trading crypto assets on up to 50x leverage.

storm_trade_ton is a decentralized derivatives trading platform built on TON and directly integrated with Telegram. Accessible via a web app and Telegram bot, Storm Trade provides trading features like leverage up to x50, instant price updates, and trading pairs with collateral in TON and USDT.

In addition, Storm Trade offers opportunities to earn through tournaments or by providing liquidity. In their daily tournaments, users compete for Storm Trade NFTs, which will whitelist them for the exchange’s token at launch. In their vaults, users can provide liquidity to act as a counterparty to traders on the platform and earn 70% of protocol fees. This can all be done directly from Telegram, making trading available on the go.
