Astar Network Preps Shiden Upgrade: SDN Price Rally Imminent #cryptonews - Astar Network, a smart contracts platform on Polkadot, is preparing to upgrade its Shiden network after completing Async Backing. However, the SDN price has dropped by 80% since its highs in 2024. The Async Backing upgrade for Shiden Network is now complete, reducing block times from 12s to 6s and making the network more scalable. […] https://lnkd.in/dKD3fS2v

For the http://re.al ecosystem, October truly was Uptober. Check out the full update here: https://lnkd.in/gxKmfM5C Across all key protocols within the ecosystem, new products and updates were deployed aimed at bringing stability and new liquidity to re.al. This work has been a clear success, boosting TVL and new users on the chain, propelling re.al to the #16 spot in the L2BEAT rankings. Notable updates: ⛓ Per L2BEAT, TVL on the chain jumped $83MM, increasing 2.7x over just one month. This coincided with a jump in cumulative revenue, surpassing the $1MM milestone, an organic total generated over just six months. 👉 $stRWA was deployed, giving users a liquid wrapper and cross-chain option to access $RWA and veRWA yields. 🤝 New partners Impermax Finance deployed to re.al, offering users their first opportunity to leverage farm liquidity pools on the chain’s native liquidity layer, Pearl. 💙 The Arbitrum Foundation's major update “Fast Withdrawals” also deployed, bringing with it faster finality and transaction settlement on the L1, reducing settlement on canonical bridge transactions from seven days down to just six hours. 🐚 Pearl: experienced its most significant growth since the deployment to re.al in May ‘24. Pearl now boasts a multitude of new pools for tokenized RWAs and other premium digital assets. 🍔 Stack: during October Stack jumped from $2MM in TVL to nearly $57MM. Peg stability has been a critical focus for Stack over October. The new Peg Stability Module and AMO both launched during the month, providing better systems and tools to support the price of $MORE and mitigate future depegs. 𝚫 Arcana's arcUSD token, re.al’s native basis trade/delta-neutral yield token saw a huge boost in TVL, growing from just under $4MM to nearly $6.5MM in October alone, a 1.65x jump in AUM. 🏠 Tangible has also made major gains in its business goals during October. $USDR redemptions opened in October, the first step to making USDR holders 100% whole. Meanwhile, the UKRE Baskets TVL continued steady growth over the month, topping out at $4.5MM at the time of posting.

This morning, I delivered my presentation on "Decentralized Execution Sharding for Enhanced Smart Contract Functionality" to the Ethereum Engineering Group Meetup with Peter Robinson. Here's a link to the YouTube video that's 55 minutes long if you want to watch it: https://lnkd.in/ewxPVZFB #krnllabs #web3 #smartcontracts #blockchain #ethereum

Ok 😋 Day 9 at Web3Bridge cohort 11, we learnt about : 1. Gas and Fees 2. Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) 3. Opcodes for the EVM A LOT, was covered in the class but some things stood out to me: 1. I find it absolutely brilliant that one of the designated task for gas fees where their implemention as a meter for computational resources and prevent DoS attacks. 2. The architecture of the EVM is mind blowing, all necessary requirements where made to support deployment and running of smart contracts. 3. Opcode was built specifically for the EVM to rate the cost of running EVERY SINGLE operation in a smart contract in order to properly implement gas meter. 🤯🤯 #web3

Learn how we align protocol success with token value! In our latest article, we explore the importance of value accrual tokens, our approach to protocol revenue, and how $TREN ensures the success of both our protocol and token holders. https://lnkd.in/eHX5Sxmu

Ankr Web3 is all about decentralized interactions 🌐 and leveraging distributed systems for the benefit of all . Ankr & Asphere RPC endpoints power these interactions with reliable, high speed, and often free service 🚀
