Avalanche’s Post

In the ever-evolving landscape of technology, innovation is a constant, yet it's the cycle of reinvention that truly propels us forward. It demands remarkable tenacity and conviction to pause and reflect—armed with current knowledge, how can we reimagine the architecture of blockchains? Introducing Sui: a paradigm shift in digital infrastructure. I like to think of it as the "Python of Web3"—an intuitive, object-oriented blockchain designed by the pioneers who have crafted many of the foundational technologies and tools that have become integral to our digital experience. Sui is poised to become the backbone of the essential trustless systems we rely on, seamlessly integrating into our lives without us even realizing its quiet power. Recently, I was reflecting on a powerful insight from my good friend Evan Cheng, Co-Founder and CEO of Mysten Labs about blockchain technology. When asked about educating the public on blockchain technology, his response really struck a chord: "Our goal isn't to teach everyone about blockchain. Instead, we focus on creating products and services that are so intuitive, they become a natural part of people's lives. We're crafting tools for developers to ensure that the end-user's experience is so fluid and straightforward, it needs no explanation." Welcome to the dawn of unobtrusive and omnipresent digital infrastructure—welcome to Sui.

Liquidity Bootstrap Pools offer a fair, dynamic way for token launches, avoiding the pitfalls of past ICOs. Starting with a high initial price that progressively decreases, LBPs allow genuine price discovery while deterring manipulation by bots and whales. Given the recent questions around LBPs we just published a short research article to explain exactly how they work compared to traditional CPMMs 📝 Read more at: https://lnkd.in/gEBTJSkP

Huge shout out and congrats to Morgan Krupetsky and the entire team at Avalanche for their nonstop innovation at the forefront of blockchain technology. Look at these names using their Spruce subnet - Citi The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) Wellington Management WisdomTree Asset Management. It's a veritable Who's Who of Wall Street and some of the largest and most important financial institutions in the world. And they all have a common need: a third-party audit trail for trusted information. It's really that simple. More to the point, the target market where this all matters in this particular context is private market assets. From the release: "Private markets, although a $10 trillion asset class, are characterized by an infrastructure that is complex and manual, with a lack of standardization and transparency, leading to inefficient distribution and operations. There are often complex legal and regulatory restrictions related to private assets." Enter these players to solve that problem. And to take a $10 trillion asset class to a wider distribution network, and to do so in a legally, compliant manner. At scale. Boom. ________________________________________________________________ I drew a line there for a reason. This is the Editor's Notes section. I see a lot of well-intended, good people kvetching non-stop about BTC as the indispensable, Only One. I simply don't see it that way. As great as the bitcoin network is, there is reason - there are actually lots of reasons - Citi and others didn't build on BTC to solve this problem. No offense to BTC, but it doesn't have the same infrastructure AVA has and it isn't built to solve the same problem. Other chains besides Ethereum, another contender, create solutions not found elsewhere. That's why there's almost a certain inevitability to competing chains like Polygon, Chainlink, Solana, Accumulate, Provenance, and literally dozens if not hundreds of others. We know there will be winners and losers. And consolidation. But there also won't ever be a world with just BTC and ETH, either. And at least not in my view. This story demonstrates that. And if you think this partnership is a one off, well then, as my Dad used to say, "I've got a bridge to sell you - in my backyard."

I'm excited to announce that @HumaFinance and @arf_one are merging, setting the stage for a transformative future in finance. With over $1B transaction volume in the last 500 days, Arf’s liquidity on-demand solution for cross-border financial institutions is one of the most explosive use cases that exemplifies the real world impact of blockchain and stablecoins. With projected $3B+ liquidity volume by 2024, the merger will propel our growth and the RWA industry as a whole. #RWA #RealWorldImpact #PayFi
