Built with Rust, Solana is renowned for its scalability and cost-effectiveness. In this ecosystem, we will learn the basic concept of Solana, smart contract development with Rust, and the Anchor framework. We will also learn to develop NFT contracts and build a game on Solana.
Gaia is a decentralized open-source platform that allows users to create,and deploy AI agents. Each Gaia node includes language models, knowledge embedding models, a vector database, and can be offered as a web API service. Gaia supports the creation of knowledge-based tradeable assets and is governed by Gaia DAO, forming a decentralized marketplace for AI agent services.
XION is the only layer-1 blockchain specifically built for consumer adoption, with the mission of making Web3 technology more accessible and inclusive for everyone. The protocol has integrated advanced features like account management, signature handling, fee abstraction, and interoperability so anyone, regardless of their technical background, can easily participate in the Web3 world. In this learning track, we will explore the unique features that make XION a game-changer, learn fundamental Rust Syntax and CosmWasm, and build user-centric projects on XION step-by-step together.
Eclipse is an innovative Ethereum Layer 2 that focuses on enhancing transaction speed and scalability while maintaining Ethereum's security and decentralization. Eclipse uses the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) as its execution environment, integrates Celestia for data availability management, and simplifies the fraudproof process with zero-knowledge proofs from RISC Zero. With its modular architecture, Eclipse combines the strengths of Ethereum, Solana, and Celestia, offering developers and users an efficient, secure, and scalable solution.
Sonic is a high-performance network evolved from Fantom, aiming to address the blockchain “trilemma” of decentralization, security, and scalability. It achieves impressive performance with 10,000 TPS, sub-second finality, and transaction costs below $0.01. Additionally, Sonic introduces the innovative Fee Monetization (FeeM) mechanism, enhancing user experience and developer adoption, paving the way for the growth of decentralized ecosystems.
Open Campus is an innovative decentralized education ecosystem that leverages blockchain technology to connect learners, educators, content creators, and educational institutions, fostering collaboration and value creation. EDU Chain, consumer-facing education apps and on-chain education finance (EduFi), is built on the Open Campus platform. Here, you can Learn. Own. Earn.
opBNB is a Layer 2 solution on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) powered by Optimistic Rollup technology. It aims to address the challenges of high transaction costs and network congestion in blockchain field. By handling most transactions on the Layer 2 network and batching them for final verification on the main chain BSC, opBNB delivers enhanced performance, reduced transaction fees, and outstanding scalability.
