Primitives Protocol’s Decentralized Social Graph Has Facebook In its Sights

Decentralized social graph platform Primitives Protocol is nothing if not ambitious. “If we can get network effects, we can beat Facebook by tying together all new social applications with our protocol,” Primitives Protocol founder and CEO David Gabeau told Decrypt. The problem with the current social networking landscape is that it’s “ephemeral,” Gabeau said. As social media applications pop up and die, they take your social graph—the map of your connections to people and organizations—with the...

OKX Launches Ethereum Layer-2 Network in Challenge to Coinbase's Base

Crypto exchange OKX announced Monday that its Ethereum-based layer-2 scaling network, X Layer, has entered public mainnet—becoming the latest name-brand blockchain to offer crypto users faster and cheaper transactions than Ethereum's own mainnet. Built using the Polygon CDK, OKX’s X Layer is also one of the first to take advantage of Polygon’s so-called AggLayer. Unveiled by Polygon in January, the solution looks to make many different blockchains feel as if they are one through a shared network...

Solana Update Brings First Fixes for Congestion Issues

The first network update to begin addressing weeks of growing congestion that made Solana incredibly difficult to use as of late rolled out for validators early Monday. Anza, the dev team that spun out of Solana Labs earlier this year, announced overnight that the v1.17.31 release of the Agave validator client—which is run by the computers that support the Solana network—was released with initial fixes for the congestion issues. It’s not meant as a singular fix for the issues that have recently...

Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Hits All-Time High One Week Before Halving

Bitcoin’s mining difficulty has risen to its highest ever—a little over one week before the long-awaited halving event takes place.  Data from BTC.com shows that Bitcoin difficulty hit 86.39 trillion hashes yesterday. In simple terms, a hash is the process of turning data into code that cannot be deciphered using powerful computers. This proof-of-work mining model is necessary to keep the Bitcoin network running and secure.  Miners—those who mint new coins—generate hashes as part of the process....

Solana 'Sucks Right Now'—Devs Are Doing Something

Solana has become the center of the DeFi world in recent weeks, between meme coins and buzzy tokens like Wormhole, Jupiter, and Tensor, pushing decentralized exchange trading volume on the chain to an all-time high in March. But the network now appears to be falling victim to its own success. Amid growing demand, congestion on the chain is causing transactions to fail and making it difficult to perform even basic tasks. As the Helium Foundation’s head of protocol engineering recently put it, “So...

Is BitVM the Holy Grail of Bitcoin? It’s Complicated, Developers Say

A once-vaunted scaling innovation for Bitcoin may be much more limited in practice than its early proponents once claimed, according to developers. Since its introduction in October, BitVM—described as a “computing paradigm” to express smart contracts on Bitcoin—has been pitched as a potential way to bridge BTC to other blockchains in a truly decentralized manner. If so, it could unlock a world of applications for BTC holders that are currently exclusive to other chains, including privacy, scala...
