Secondly, the fork addresses the chain reorganization issues by cutting the 'Sprint length' from 64 to 16 blocks. It means one validator will generate blocks for a much shorter period, approximately 32 seconds from the current 128 seconds. On the Polygon blockchain, reorgs affect the transaction finality based on the number of confirmed valid blocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amidst the hard fork, Polygon's native token MATIC is changing hands for $1.01, representing a price increase of 17% in the past week, per data provided by CoinMarketCap. The crypto market has extended the new year's uptrend, with the global cap at $996 billion.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Polygon Undergoes a Hard Fork Amid Decentralization Concerns","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"polygon-undergoes-a-hard-fork-amid-decentralization-concerns","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-04-10 17:40:42","post_modified_gmt":"2023-04-10 07:40:42","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=9446","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":9476,"post_author":"2","post_date":"2023-01-19 17:33:22","post_date_gmt":"2023-01-19 06:33:22","post_content":"\n
Manila, Philippines, 19th January, 2023, Chainwire<\/strong><\/span><\/p> BlockchainSpace CEO and Founder Peter Ing, Metasports CBO and Co-Founder Lars Hernandez, and Metasports CEO and Co-Founder Joe Josue are optimistic that the majority acquisition of Metasports will make waves in Web3 and bring great value to their stakeholders in the coming years.<\/i><\/p>\n BlockchainSpace (BSPC), the leading data aggregator and infrastructure provider for guilds and Web3 projects, is confident that 2023 will be a banner year following the majority acquisition of Intellectual Property (IP) House, Metasports.<\/p>\n Peter Ing, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of BSPC, believes the synergistic partnership with Metasports will bring more value to the partner guilds under BSPC\u2019s flagship product, Guild Hub, and give Metasports an unbridled springboard to high-impact Web3 communities.<\/p>\n Launched in late 2022, Guild Hub is BSPC\u2019s initiative to help create legitimacy among Web3 communities by delivering an effective way of policing the community and providing a venue to create impactful and valuable partnerships. The Metasports acquisition will be instrumental in fostering further business growth, allowing BSPC to continue supporting the community.<\/p>\n The acquisition of Metasports, with its proven capabilities in the gaming and content creator space, will further expand the opportunities for $GUILD token integration<\/u><\/a>, solidifying BSPC\u2019s position as a leader in providing comprehensive and user-friendly solutions for guilds and Web3 projects.<\/p>\n Metasports, which launched in December 2021, focuses on Web3 and Web2 gaming IPs across esports, creator networks, and news and media verticals. It has quickly proven its value in the Web3 space through the Lunacian Sports League (LSL), the first professionally organized and longest-running esports league for Axie Infinity, and the establishment of its Creator Business Management with renowned content creator KookooTV as the first partner.<\/p>\n While many veer away from high-risk decisions given the market conditions, the two companies view the acquisition as a strategic move based on a thorough understanding of the market, thanks to BSPC\u2019s readily available and growing data sets through Guild Hub.\u00a0<\/p>\n Joe Josue, CEO and Co-Founder of Metasports, is confident they can strengthen their commitment to enhance experiences around gaming and will bring value to their stakeholders through this acquisition.<\/p>\n With BSPC\u2019s and Metasports\u2019 sights set on scalability this year, both companies look forward to bringing in major changes that will not only impact their business development but contribute to the success and longevity of the growing global Web3 community.<\/p>\n About BlockchainSpace For more information about the $GUILD token, head over to blockchainspace.asia\/guild-token-page<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n About Metasports San Francisco, California, 18th January, 2023, Chainwire<\/strong><\/span><\/p> Today, Coinbase has listed Kava <\/a>and will launch a massive Learning Rewards Campaign to educate its user base about how Kava is leading the world to Web3.<\/p>\n Kava is a decentralized layer-1 blockchain that combines the speed and interoperability of Cosmos with the developer power of Ethereum. Kava has spent the last year building a deep integration with Coinbase that optimizes the process for Cosmos SDK chains to integrate with Coinbase helping to drive new liquidity to the Cosmos ecosystem.<\/p>\n Unlocking Cosmos Liquidity Fueling Protocol Growth with Kava Rise<\/b><\/p>\n Kava was built from the ground up to optimize its resources for protocol growth, strengthened by its Cosmos-EVM technology that enables maximum scalability, speed, security, and developer support. In 2022, Kava combined on-chain and off-chain growth mechanisms into a single developer incentive program called Kava Rise.\u00a0<\/p>\n Kava Rise aims to set a new standard for enabling growth and demand for thousands of Web3 protocols. Builders earn a share of Kava Rise's $750M developer incentive fund via the program's blockchain-based distribution method, designed to reward the top protocols every month based on usage. More than 50 protocols like Curve Finance, Sushi, and Beefy Finance have collectively brought more than $15M TVL into the ecosystem, showcasing the program\u2019s ability to enable protocols to grow and thrive regardless of market conditions.\u00a0<\/p>\n About Kava\u201cBlockchainSpace is looking to scale faster this year. It doesn't matter if it's a bull market or a bear market \u2013 innovation doesn\u2019t stop. We\u2019ve always been focused on strengthening our resources to support our mission, with a more consolidated approach through Guild Hub,\u201d stressed Ing.<\/blockquote>\n
\u201cEsports and guilds are not going away as they are integral to Web3 gaming,\u201d added Ing. \u201cMetasports will be essential in serving these guilds.\"<\/blockquote>\n
\u201cWe saw an incredible opportunity to grow and invest in more IPs, and that's when we started to seek venture. In BlockchainSpace, we found a partner that would be the backbone which we could build on Web3. By tapping BlockchainSpace\u2019s infrastructure, we will finally be able to build technology-backed IPs, which is a powerful next step for us,\u201d Josue shared.<\/blockquote>\n
\n<\/b>BlockchainSpace<\/a> is the one-stop-shop for all guild needs that provides essential, scalable infrastructure, digital tools, financing solutions, and networking opportunities. To date, BSPC enables over 24,000 Guilds and 2 million players to scale in the Metaverse, successfully managing and growing their communities.<\/p>\n

\n<\/b>Coinbase's native integration with Kava allows for easy listing of Kava ecosystem projects, KAVA staking on Coinbase, and unlocks DeFi usage for Coinbase users on Kava. Additionally, Kava worked with the Coinbase team to make it significantly easier for Cosmos chains to list on the exchange, unlocking access to liquidity for Cosmos projects and further driving the adoption and growth of the entire Cosmos ecosystem. The entire process whittles the timeline for integrating Cosmos SDK chains to Coinbase from 12-18 months to a single month. Cosmos chains can now be integrated as easily as ERC-20 tokens. A major step forward to increasing liquidity within the Cosmos Ecosystem<\/p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s exciting to see Kava listed on the largest US-regulated exchange. Coinbase sets the standard as the most important on-ramp for new users and capital into the blockchain ecosystem. I look forward to growing Kava\u2019s exposure to new users, which will have downstream effects for all protocols in the Kava Rise program and the Cosmos ecosystem.\u201d \u2014 Scott Stuart, CEO of Kava Labs<\/blockquote>\n
