SKALE Joins ConsenSys Partner Program To Accelerate Enterprise Adoption of Public Blockchains

img-ads

Enterprise blockchain adoption is moving into a stage of rapid growth, and increasingly public blockchains are beginning to provide the security and privacy guarantees that enterprises require.  While ConsenSys Quorum remains the premier protocol for deploying private-permissioned blockchain networks, projects like the Baseline Protocol and EY’s Nightfall client are bringing new design patterns for deploying enterprise applications on the Ethereum Mainnet. To this point, the advantages of utilizing open networks have been hampered due to well known issues of high transaction fees and slow throughput.

By combining the power of the Ethereum Network and the Layer 2 SKALE Network, enterprises can achieve speed and costs in comparison to centralized solutions. The ConsenSys Codefi suite of financial applications was built to converge existing financial applications and decentralized financial (DeFi) technologies to create more accessible and equitable financial services for everyone, everywhere. SKALE Network is an open-source, decentralized “elastic” blockchain network designed to scale Web3 applications using configurable, application-specific blockchains (SKALE chains). Enterprises working with ConsenSys Codefi will now be able to take advantage of the SKALE Network scaling infrastructure when building the services of tomorrow. 

“In order for enterprises to effectively run open blockchains they need a strategic approach married with software and implementation services that will allow them to hit the ground running on day one,” said Jack O’Holleran, co-founder and CEO SKALE Labs. “SKALE is designed to be an enterprise grade open source network because decentralization should not mean a sacrifice on quality and performance. ConsenSys is a clear global leader in enterprise Ethereum software and services and we’re pleased they will partner and support the SKALE network for enterprise clients.”

Enterprises developing blockchain solutions have many options, but Ethereum has clearly become the developer platform of choice. As the most used blockchain in the world, it has a large ecosystem of tools and technologies as well as a substantial pool of developers, making it an optimal platform for enterprises. It’s on this platform that ConsenSys has developed an enterprise offering encompassing open source software, strategic consulting, and implementation products and services. 

“Building an enterprise blockchain offering that is flexible and scalable is an absolute must for today’s enterprises, which is why SKALE is such a compelling partner to our offering,” said Didier Le Floch, CTO ConsenSys Codefi. “By adding SKALE Network to our solutions, enterprise customers will get subsecond transactions and fast finality all in a gasless offering. This is absolutely critical for enterprises as they adopt open networks.”

Unlock the Opportunities of Ethereum Blockchain Technology

Companies around the world are exploring blockchain solutions to reimagine the way they do business. From asset management to capital markets, decentralized finance, global trade, payments, and countless other industries, Ethereum technology is helping leading enterprises and institutions solve critical business problems and propel economies of scale.

The ConsenSys Partner Program offers technology partners, systems integrators, application firms, and software vendors access to custom benefits and new business opportunities with our leading blockchain products.

SKALE Network

SKALE Network is an open-source, decentralized “elastic” blockchain network designed to scale Web3 applications. SKALE chains are configurable, application-specific blockchains, sometimes called “dynamic shards”, that exist one layer above the Ethereum blockchain. Developers can rent SKALE chains that each act as a private Ethereum-compatible smart contract platform with faster block times and the sub-second transactions. SKALE chains can run full-state smart contracts, support decentralized storage, execute rollup contracts and run machine learning algorithms using the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine). In combination with Ethereum, SKALE Network aims to allow Web3 apps to compete with traditional apps on a cost and performance basis.

SKALE Labs

SKALE is an elastic blockchain network that gives developers the ability to easily provision highly configurable fully decentralized chains that are instantly compatible with Ethereum. SKALE chains can execute sub-second block times, run up to 2,000 tps per chain, and run full-state smart contracts, support  decentralized storage, execute Rollups, and machine learning in EVM. The SKALE Network is an open source project with many contributors including SKALE Labs, Inc. headquartered in San Francisco, CA. The SKALE Network’s supporters include Blockchange, ConsenSys Labs, Hashed, HashKey, Floodgate, Multicoin Capital, Recruit Holdings, Signia VP, and Winklevoss Capital. The SKALE Network is supported by top validators in the world including 01NODE, Ankr, Anonstake, Audit One, Blockdaemon, Blockware, Chainflow, Chainode, Chorus One, Cypher Core, Dokia Capital, Figment Networks,  FreshSkale, Hashed x DELIGHT, Hashquark, NGC Ventures,, Staked, Stakin, Stake With Us, WolfEdge Capital, as well as Staking Facilities.

New Zealand retirement fund reportedly allocates 5% to Bitcoin

KiwiSaver Growth Strategy, a $350 million retirement plan operated by New Zealand Wealth Funds Management, has reportedly allocated 5% of its assets to Bitcoin (BTC), underscoring the steady stream of institutional investors entering the digital asset space.

Bitcoin’s striking similarities to gold were cited as one of the biggest reasons for entering the trade, according to James Grigor, the chief investment officer at New Zealand Funds Management.

“If you are happy to invest in gold, you can’t really discount bitcoin,” he told Stuff, a New Zealand news agency, adding that BTC will be featured in more KiwiSaver products over the next five years.

Grigor explained that his firm purchased Bitcoin for the first time in October when it was valued at $10,000. To execute the trade, New Zealand Fund Management had to change its offer documents to allow for cryptocurrency investments.

Bitcoin’s price peaked north of $61,000…

Crypto.com launches CRO token mainnet

Cryptocurrency exchange Crypto.com has launched a fully decentralized open-source public blockchain, the Crypto.org Chain.

In an announcement today, the crypto exchange said it had launched its Crypto.org public blockchain after more than two years of research and development, two testnets, and a mainnet dry run with 275 million transactions reportedly processed within a month. The blockchain’s native token will be the Crypto.org Coin (CRO).

Last month, Crypto.org burned more than 70 billion CRO — roughly $10 billion at the time — in advance of the mainnet launch. The new chain has already processed more than 7,000 transactions at the time of publication, which Crypto.com said was aimed at “payments, DeFi and NFTs.”

“Decentralization matters,” said Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek. “Today, you are faced with bad options. You can use Blockchain A and pay high fees in a slow, congested,…

Cathie Wood: BTC investors shouldn’t transact until tax code changed

Cathie Wood, the founder and CEO of Ark Invest, is cautioning investors not to sell or transact their Bitcoin (BTC) until the United States Internal Revenue Agency, or IRS, introduces more sensible tax policies on digital assets.

In a webcast hosted by Cboe, Wood said transacting with BTC could lead to massive tax liabilities.

“The IRS has something to say about this, so if you have huge gains in your Bitcoin, I don’t think I would bear much in the way of transactions until we get maybe some changes on the tax front,” Wood said, according to Markets Insider.

Using Bitcoin for transactions and selling it for profit have become attractive options for long-term holders. The flagship cryptocurrency recently spiked above $61,000 en route to new all-time highs. And while the BTC price has corrected sharply from its recent peak, it’s still up…

What the FUD? Fear drives Bitcoin price down, not Friday’s $6.1B expiry

Earlier this week, Cointelegraph reported the importance of the upcoming $6.1 billion Bitcoin (BTC) options expiry on March 26. The article made clear that bulls were in control if one excluded the put (sell) options below $47,000, which is likely the case as BTC currently hovers above $50,000.

As the expiry date draws closer, it’s less likely that traders will be willing to pay for the right to sell BTC at $47,000. The same could be said for the ultra-bullish call (buy) options at $60,000 and above. Therefore, the $6.1 billion total open interest is heavily inflated by worthless options.

Could there be something hidden in BTC options that is causing current pressure on price pressure? To determine this, one needs to analyze how these calls and puts stack below $50,000.

The NFT of record: New York Times raises $500,000 for charity in NFT column sale

“It’s worth a try,” wrote New York Times columnist Kevin Roose of his attempt to auction one of his articles as a non-fungible token (NFT). Just a day later, however, it appears to be worth much more than that.

After publishing a step-by-step NFT explainer titled “Buy This Column on the Blockchain!” on Wednesday, Roose has successfully auctioned today what he calls a “digital original” of his article as an NFT on the Foundation platform, raising over $550,000 for charity. 

The last half-hour of the auction was a particularly exciting one, with a bidding war breaking out to drive up the price from just under $50,000 to the final $562,891 sale. Competing for the coveted digital clip was Facebook veteran and stealth startup founder J Ouyang and the eventual winner, Dubai-based production company 3F Music

The proceeds of the sale are…
