Share a project I have recently been following: linera.
a16z led the investment once and participated twice, with total financing of $12 million.Founders Mathieu Baudet has strength and background.
Participation at zero cost, definitely a natural advantage.
Here are the details (including 4 ways to participate and tutorials).
Introduction:
Linera aims to combine the infinite scalability of Web2 with the cryptographic security of Web3, particularly optimizing the processing of time-sensitive transactions suitable for payment, gaming, and DeFi scenarios. This project aspires to achieve great things and, with strong support from a16z, is likely to be a new innovation and the next wave.Innovations.
Its core innovation lies in the 'micro-chain' architecture, allowing users or applications to interact directly with small blockchains (micro-chains) for low-latency and high-security on-chain data read/write.Founders with big company experience.
Linera is led by @ma2bd, a former Meta/Novi engineer with a PhD in cryptographic protocols who participated in the FastPay project. The Linera team is also focused on distributed systems and blockchain development, making their technology noteworthy.
I have seriously studied this project's technical route and prospects, and I truly believe it has great potential:
Firstly:
Linera addresses the challenges of slow transactions, high fees, and poor scalability that traditional blockchains often face. Linera attempts to solve these pain points through its micro-chain and flexible validator mechanisms, providing high-performance, low-latency solutions for multi-chain and multi-system applications, especially suitable for scenarios that require real-time performance.Secondly:
Micro-chains are the core concept of Linera, with each user or application having an independent micro-chain that allows for parallel transaction processing. This design is similar to database partitioning, reducing single-point bottlenecks. According to the GitHub repository of the Linera protocol, micro-chains achieve cross-chain communication through asynchronous messaging, using synchronous calls and ephemeral sessions (resources) for application composition. This architecture theoretically supports infinite horizontal scalability, particularly suitable for high-concurrency scenarios.
Thirdly:
Linera's transaction confirmation time is as low as milliseconds, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring instant feedback, such as online games or payment systems. The future use cases and revenue potential are absolutely significant.Fourthly:
Linera is expected to realize the next generation of smart wallets and interoperability. Its smart wallet can replay transactions instantly and execute network queries through a local Web Assembly (Wasm) virtual machine, providing trustworthy data. Additionally, it supports execution proofs for each block and allows transactions to query external web services directly, offering strong interoperability support for multi-chain and multi-system applications.Lastly:
Linera achieves dynamic expansion of block space by distributing computation across nearly infinite micro-chains. This design draws on the NoSQL database paradigm from Web2, attempting to address the performance decline issues of traditional blockchains under high load. This scalability is also a differentiating advantage compared to existing L2 solutions.
