According to Cointelegraph, Waves founder Sasha Ivanov is preparing to launch a new blockchain protocol called Units, which he believes will address the 'end game for layer-2 scalability.' Speaking at the Future Blockchain Summit in Dubai, Ivanov discussed the interoperability challenges within the Web3 space and how the Units project aims to solve them. The protocol is set to launch at the end of October.
Ivanov highlighted the issues with current blockchain systems, particularly the reliance on centralized bridges for transferring tokens between layers. He emphasized that this approach is flawed and needs to be resolved. The risks associated with cross-chain bridges have been underscored by major hacks, such as the Wormhole and Ronin bridge incidents in 2022, which resulted in nearly $1 billion in combined losses.
The Waves founder stressed the importance of blockchain interoperability, arguing that without it, the industry cannot progress. He called for a 'final solution' where all chains are interoperable without the need for centralized bridges. Ivanov explained that the Units protocol was created to address this issue, ensuring that all blockchains developed through it are interoperable by default. This is achieved by maintaining the same economic guarantees across connected layers, making them interoperable without additional economic incentives.
In the context of decentralized finance (DeFi), Ivanov pointed out that the lack of interoperability leads to fragmented liquidity and the creation of risky cross-chain bridges. He suggested that a cross-chain decentralized application (DApp) running on the Unit’s base layer could be a potential solution. Ivanov expressed optimism that such a project would emerge soon and mentioned that grants would be provided for launching projects within the ecosystem once it is established.#Waves #UnitsProtocol #BlockchainInteroperability #Layer2Scalability #Web3 #DecentralizedFinance #DeFi #CrossChain #DApp #FutureBlockchainSummit
🚀 NFT Holders Sue Art Gallery Over Metaverse Promise

According to Cointelegraph, a group of NFT holders has filed a lawsuit against Eden Gallery, alleging that the gallery failed to deliver on its promise of creating a metaverse-based private club for NFT holders. The collection, known as Meta Eagle Club, raised approximately $13 million from the sale of 12,000 NFTs. The plaintiffs claim that despite updates from the team suggesting progress, no significant efforts were made to develop the Meta Eagle Club. Additionally, the lawsuit asserts that the individuals responsible for the project lacked experience in blockchain development.
In related news, gaming continues to serve as a testing ground for new technologies, including NFTs. Christian Thompson, Chief Information Security Officer at Mysten Labs, discussed the role of gaming in technological exploration during the Future Blockchain Summit in Dubai. Thompson highlighted that gaming acts as a sandbox for developers to experiment with Web3 technologies such as artificial intelligence and NFTs, facilitating innovation and development.
Furthermore, the Web3 game 'Off The Grid,' a third-person shooter, has gained significant traction, topping the free-to-play games chart on the Epic Games store. The game, which features Web3 elements built on an Avalanche subnet called GUNZ, allows players to mint NFTs and use them as in-game items. This integration enables players to trade these items in secondary markets and maintain control over their in-game assets.#NFT #Lawsuit #Metaverse #PrivateClub #MetaEagleClub #Blockchain #Gaming #Web3 #FutureBlockchainSummit #OffTheGrid #EpicGames #Avalanche #GUNZ #InGameAssets #AVAX

According to Cointelegraph, a decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) provider, Dynex, is advocating for public access to quantum computing technology. At the Future Blockchain Summit in Dubai, held from Oct. 13–16, Daniela Herrmann, co-founder of Dynex, discussed the company's mission to make quantum computing accessible to individuals through a subscription model.
Herrmann highlighted that quantum computing is a groundbreaking technology capable of solving complex calculations that traditional computers cannot handle. Potential applications include weather prediction models and pharmaceutical research. She emphasized that innovation should be a human right, and Dynex aims to democratize access to quantum computing by offering it as a service.
Dynex's approach leverages blockchain technology to create a decentralized operating system. This system ensures ethical integrity and provides proof through time-stamped records. Herrmann explained that the decentralized nature of their network, supported by graphics processing units (GPUs), maintains the ethical standards of their operations.
In addition to the subscription model, Dynex has a business arm that supports pioneers through investments, ensuring that financial constraints do not hinder access to quantum computing. Herrmann reiterated the company's commitment to making advanced technology available to everyone, fostering innovation and competition in the process.#Dynex #QuantumComputing #Blockchain #Decentralization #AccessForAll #Innovation #FutureBlockchainSummit #EthicalTechnology #GPU #SubscriptionModel
