Orbs’ first time ever supporting an event in Nagoya! 📚 Japan Orbs team, Ran Hammer, and Shawn O'Donaghue joined the Study Group this past Saturday, a community-led meetup where builders dive into infrastructure, innovation & more The event was wrapped up with an after party 🍻 Huge thank you once again to everyone who came out, stayed through the entire session, asked questions, and showed support

🔵 KADENA NEWS | EPISODE 1 (SUMMARY) 🟧 News Headlines & Updates 🔸 Grant Program Highlights - Curveblock RWA Grant: Curveblock received $400,000 in funding for tokenizing green property real estate, working directly with the UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Bank of England - Total Grant Program: $50 million (one of the largest in the blockchain industry) - $25 million specifically allocated for tokenization, RWA, and institutional use cases - Remaining $25 million focused on EVM integration and emerging technologies like privacy and AI 🔸 Upcoming Events & Partnerships - Global Blockchain Business Council (GBC) Sponsorship: Sponsoring event in Washington DC, paid entirely in KDA tokens (first crypto they've accepted) - Bridge Bounties Program: Continuing security testing with real money incentives for finding vulnerabilities 🔸 Galxe Campaign "Hello Kadena" - Successfully attracted over 100,000 users to participate in campaigns - Will distribute 100,000 KDA along with NFTs as rewards - KDA raffles to increase user engagement and accessibility 🟧 ChainwebEVM - Historical Context: Team discussed EVM adoption as early as 2017-2018 but initially hesitated due to security concerns and technical limitations - Technical Breakthrough: Ethereum's transition to Proof of Stake required separating execution layer from consensus, providing exactly what Kadena needed - Strategic Vision: Creating the first scalable Layer 1 EVM solution without requiring Layer 2 technologies - Developer Access: Gaining access to massive EVM developer community and mature tooling ecosystem - Multi-chain Architecture: Additional chains can be added when capacity is needed, keeping gas prices low while scaling throughput at base layer 🟧 Proof of Work vs Proof of Stake - Proof of Work Advantage: Security derives from random sampling that can be distributed across multiple chains while maintaining security integrity - Proof of Stake Limitations: Voting-based security degrades when split across multiple chains - Architectural Requirement: ChainwebEVM fundamentally requires Proof of Work and cannot be replicated with Proof of Stake systems - Industry Reality: No Proof of Stake networks have successfully implemented parallel chain architecture due to these limitations 🟧 Layer 1 Scaling Philosophy - Decentralization Priority: True decentralization requires scalable base layer solutions rather than Layer 2 technologies - Horizontal Scaling: Parallel chain architecture allows adding more chains when network capacity is reached - Cost Management: Ensures gas prices never become prohibitively expensive while maintaining base layer security guarantees
