Layer-2 cross-blockchain platform Coinweb adds support for Ethereum

2022-3-26 22:24

Coinweb, a layer-2 blockchain interoperability protocol, announced today the addition of the Ethereum underlying chain to its expandable blockchain infrastructure. This integration lays the groundwork for protocol-level unification of the Bitcoin-derived chains and the Ethereum family of chains.

Bitcoin and Ethereum hold the largest portions of capital in the cryptocurrency market. By integrating and unifying the chains and their derivatives, users will gain access to the two ecosystems’ combined capital and unlock new potential within the blockchain space.

In addition to increasing the total available liquidity, the Ethereum family of chains consists of well over 150 individual chains, each with its own ecosystem and unique properties. Adding support for these chains aims to expand Coinweb’s consolidated solution for decentralized application (dApp) developers.

“The Ethereum family of chains is made up of entirely different structures compared to Bitcoin-derived chains. To date, proof-of-concept has been delivered by managing cross-chain transactions across Bitcoin-derived chains, all of which have similar structures. Coinweb has now proven its compatibility with the two largest families of chains, whose structures are completely independent of one another. This achievement paves the way for the platform to carry on its aggressive drive to connect a significant number of chains to deliver real-world usage and adoption.”
– Coinweb CEO, Toby Gilbert

Current projects built on the Coinweb platform will commence using the multi-chain broadcasting system, writing transactions to both Bitcoin-derived chains and the Ethereum family of chains, which can be viewed on the Coinweb explorer.

Unlike cross-chain bridges, other interoperability solutions, and current connection schemes, Coinweb’s unique coupling of blockchains at the protocol level makes it possible to exchange information and create dApps between any combo of blockchains plus maintain the security properties of the underlying layers.

Moreover, Coinweb’s reactive smart contracts maintain gas balance while continuously monitoring each underlying chain for events that will trigger their execution, enabling larger volumes of computations and self-sustenance across chains.

As Ether’s Ropsten Proof-of-Stake ‘Test Merge’ Goes Live, Uncertainty Looms Over Ethereum L2s

As the major upgrade of the Ethereum blockchain, Ethereum 2.0, is set to launch later this year, uncertainty looms over layer 2 solutions built on the Ethereum blockchain. Ethereum 2.0 is set to be a new version of the blockchain that will enthrone the proof-of-stake (PoS) mechanism of verifying transactions via staking. Ethereum 2.0 (Consensus […]

Ethereum to AVAX Bridge – How To Transfer Coins From ETH To Avalanche Blockchain

Avalanche blockchain is another one of those Ethereum killers that aim to solve what the Ethereum network is struggling with — scalability, transaction fees, and interoperability. Avalanche is taking a different approach by using three separate chains and claims to be “the fastest smart contracts platform in the blockchain industry, as measured by time-to-finality”.

Polkadot vs. Polygon: Understanding Two Prominent Second Layer Ethereum Blockchain Solutions

The meteoric rise of decentralized finance across 2020 exposed numerous vulnerabilities with the Ethereum network. While the Ethereum blockchain is one of the most secure and ‘battle-hardened’ infrastructures, high gas costs and scalability issues have led some projects to innovate instead of waiting for the long-desired Ethereum 2.

Ethereum Fees Are Up 500% Since April: Why That’s Bearish for ETH

It’s been a strong few weeks for Ethereum adoption. Due to growth in the decentralized finance sector, the blockchain has seen a spike in users, active addresses, and transactions. Unfortunately, this influx of usage has not come without a cost: As per data from Glassnode, a blockchain analytics firm, the daily median gas price of an Ethereum transaction passed 50 Gwei.
