🔎 Noble: Pioneering IBC Adoption
Noble is spearheading the future of Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC), leveraging its power to provide seamless asset integration in the IBC ecosystem. Addressing migration challenges, Noble aims to deliver the best user experience and onboarding for asset issuers. In collaboration with Cosmos validators and strategic partners, Noble is set to launch on mainnet on March 27, marking a significant milestone for cross-chain communication.
🔎 Babylon: Boosting Security Across Cosmos SDK Chains
Babylon has successfully integrated with 12 leading Cosmos SDK chains, offering Bitcoin-level security and fostering value transfer between PoS ecosystems and the Bitcoin network. Notable integrations include Osmosis, Stride, Akash, and Injective, where Babylon significantly reduces secure stake unbonding time and enhances protection for high-value asset transfers. Additionally, Babylon's testnet integration with Juno Network, Secret Network, Nibiru Chain, and others demonstrates the growing demand for its advanced security solutions.
🔎 Skip Protocol: Live on Osmosis with In-Protocol MEV Solution
Skip Protocol's ProtoRev is now live on Osmosis, capturing Miner Extractable Value (MEV) and returning profits to the community. As the first fully in-protocol MEV solution, ProtoRev has generated over $5,000 in profits and serves as the precursor to the POB module, which aims to bring in-protocol MEV to all Cosmos chains. ProtoRev's success demonstrates that on-chain MEV systems can be efficient and non-wasteful while providing an innovative solution for sovereign MEV recapture.
🔎 Sorchain Builders Program: Catalyzing Growth in Mobility Ecosystem
Soarchain envisions powering every car with decentralized, trustless technology to create intelligent, connected cities. The project looks forward to onboarding developers from the Web3 ecosystem to build mobility dApps and create a data-sharing infrastructure for improved mobility. By collaborating with other projects in the Interchain, Soarchain believes they can accelerate blockchain adoption in the mobility industry and contribute to a better future for all.
🔎 Chain4Energy #Decentralization
Chain4Energy boasts a total score of 87, with 75 out of 94 active validators distributed across 16 countries. The Validator Nakamoto Coefficient stands at 6, with a slight adjustment needed to reach 7. A special mention goes to the 19 validators with a perfect score of 100, whose contributions are essential to the chain's success and decentralization.
🔎 Thread of the Week
An attacker who controls 1/3 of the total voting power can prevent the network from finalize blocks.
Controlling 1/2, can consistently reorg unfinalized blocks between checkpoints Controlling 2/3, can finalize invalid blocks (e.g. double spend)
