New York City, New York, November 11th, 2024, Chainwire

Polymer Labs has officially launched Polymer Hub, a real-time interoperability protocol for connecting all Ethereum rollups. By streaming messages, states, and logs over IBC primitives (equivalent to Web2’s TCP/IP), Polymer Hub verifies and stores the headers of all connected rollups, allowing applications to prove any arbitrary state across rollups at vastly reduced overhead. 

Rollup/L2 ecosystems have historically connected only within their own walled gardens; with Polymer, however, rollups can now communicate across ecosystems and coordinate as fast as they can produce blocks. The protocol offers significant improvements in cross-chain communication latency, bandwidth, and cost for all on-chain primitives compared to existing solutions. 

Polymer aims to make cross-chain interoperability as fast, efficient, and affordable as blockspace itself, enabling Ethereum applications to scale to the next million users.

Increase Bandwidth Reduce Latency

Real-time, high-throughput rollups are right around the corner, but existing interoperability protocols (point-to-point and hub-and-spoke models) were not designed to support dense network traffic across hundreds of rollups. According to the team, existing solutions are too slow and expensive for the next generation of applications on Ethereum. As we enter this new era, interoperability solutions must complement their speed and efficiency. Real-time apps require real-time interoperability.

Polymer aims to build the fastest and most efficient interoperability protocol for next-generation rollups like MegaETH. The Hub passes messages in real-time via sequencer pre-confirmations, ensuring cross-chain communication latency can keep up with millisecond block times of these rollups. Polymer also leverages EigenDA to scale cross-rollup bandwidth to facilitate data-intensive use cases on-chain.

“Real-timeness, the ability to react to inputs with ultra-low latency at massive scale, will enable truly ground-breaking decentralized applications. Readying the infra stack for this revolution will be a joint effort, in which real-time interoperability from Polymer will be crucial.” – Lei Yang (Cofounder & CTO MegaETH)

Various technologies like shared sequencers and ecosystem-native interoperability intra-nets have fragmented Ethereum into rollup clusters; these clusters, however, can leverage Polymer Hub’s one-to-all architecture to become interoperable with each other within minutes, rather than months. Polymer Hub is also the first interoperability solution to offer re-org protection. This helps enable token bridges and solver networks to safely settle cross-chain transactions in milliseconds and automatically revert them if they deviate from Ethereum’s L1 history.

Looking Ahead

The next generation of on-chain applications will closely follow the architecture of cloud apps: rollups are the new microservices, AVSs are the new infrastructure services. To enable horizontal scaling on-chain, cross-chain infrastructure must be low-latency, high-bandwidth, and affordably scalable.

The Polymer team seeks to improve interoperability performance in order to enable competitive, novel categories of applications, such as high throughput e-commerce and ride-sharing, to be built on-chain. 

“Building interoperable applications that don’t trade off cost or latency is a requirement to make crypto usable again. At scale, this connective layer needs to be as robust and secure as the Ethereum base layer itself, and Polymer has been uncompromising in achieving this vision.” – Vikram Arun (Cofounder & CEO Superform Labs)

Starting with the OP stack, Polymer plans to bring real-time interoperability to all rollup ecosystems on Ethereum—enabling swift and cost-effective scaling for applications in the near future. 

Developers interested in trying Polymer Hub’s mainnet can find more information on Polymer Lab’s website, and by following Polymer on X (@Polymer_Labs).

Rekt Brands Inc. (Rekt), the parent company behind the Rektguy NFT project, Rekt Drinks, and the Rekt brand intellectual property, is excited to announce the completion of a $1.5 million seed funding round. Funded exclusively by angel investors and the community—without institutional venture capital—this achievement highlights the support Rekt received from its loyal and growing network.

This funding announcement follows the debut of Rekt Drinks, Rekt’s first consumer product: a lime-flavored sparkling water with zero caffeine and zero alcohol, featuring the Rekt branding. Rekt Drinks made its debut last week with 222,456 units available across 32 countries. The entire stock sold out in under 48 hours, with demand in the U.S. alone resulting in a complete sell-out within just 4 hours and 20 minutes. This launch represents one of the largest real-world product sales by a Web3 brand, reinforcing Rekt’s potential as a cultural force in both digital and traditional markets.

Rekt was founded from the success of the Rektguy NFT collection, created by artist Ovie Faruq (OSF) in May 2022. Since then, the Rektguy project has expanded into Rekt Brands, which oversees the Rekt IP and pioneered a unique industry model by offering equity in the parent company directly to its NFT holders, utilizing a Reg CF exemption under SEC guidelines in the U.S.

“Rekt has had a die-hard, cult-like community for the past 2 years, and our ambition is to fulfill its potential as one of the largest Web3 brands,” said OSF. “With the sell-out of our drinks last week, that’s 222,456 times someone is going to pick up a can with the Rekt logo and a Rektguy on it. It’s a magnitude higher for us in terms of brand awareness.”

With this new funding, Rekt is poised to expand its product lineup, strengthen its brand awareness in and outside of Web3, while further bridging digital culture with physical consumer products. The Rekt community remains at the heart of the brand’s mission, with upcoming projects that will continue to empower, engage, and reward its dedicated supporters.

About Rekt 

Rekt Brands Inc. is the parent company that owns the Rektguy NFT project, Rekt Drinks, and the Rekt brand intellectual property. Established from the success of the Rektguy NFT collection by artist Ovie Faruq (OSF), the brand has expanded into consumer goods and groundbreaking community equity models. Rekt aims to redefine brand ownership and engagement through its Web3 foundation, innovative products, and viral global community.

Hyperbridge Launches on Polkadot with Support for Ethereum, Optimism, BNB Chain, and More

Hyperbridge, the highly anticipated blockchain interoperability protocol, has officially launched, unlocking new possibilities for seamless cross-chain communication. Following its $2.5 million seed funding led by the Web3 Foundation and Scytale Digital, Hyperbridge now brings its groundbreaking technology to users, delivering secure, scalable, and verifiable cross-chain solutions across multiple blockchains. Hyperbridge launches with native support for Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, Base, BNB Chain, and Gnosis.

The journey to Hyperbridge’s launch has been thorough, with the project completing two testnet cycles. During these cycles:

• 600,000+ cross-chain messages were processed across supported networks.
• 66 independent relayers joined to facilitate message transfer across chains, validating the robustness of the network.

This extensive testing ensures a smooth mainnet experience, with Hyperbridge now equipped to provide unmatched cross-chain messaging and liquidity solutions.

At launch, Hyperbridge introduces a token bridge for asset transfers: Gateway, arbitrary message passing, and state queries across multiple ecosystems. Gateway offers:

• High security and finality guarantees, displacing traditional multisig-based authentication with zk-proofs and on-chain finality validation.
• Instant access to multichain liquidity, unlocking new DeFi use cases for DAOs, stablecoins, and real-world assets.

Security remains paramount to Hyperbridge’s design, addressing challenges faced by conventional multisig bridges that have previously resulted in over $2 billion in exploits. Hyperbridge leverages zk-light clients and storage proofs to authenticate messages, ensuring a security model equivalent to the blockchains it connects.

“Bridges are only as strong as their authentication mechanisms,” said Seun Lanlege, founder of Polytope Labs, the developers of Hyperbridge. “By leveraging finality-based authentication and eliminating multisig committees, Hyperbridge offers unmatched security, allowing developers to build the next generation of decentralized applications with confidence.”

Hyperbridge enables developers to launch cross-chain applications from day one, supporting use cases such as:

• Non-custodial native bridges for unified liquidity pools.
• Cross-chain intents to facilitate seamless token interactions.

Bitunix exchange announced on November 1st that it has launched its Copy Trading Feature. With this tool, Bitunix enables new traders to take their first steps in futures trading by copying experienced traders. The fastest-growing crypto derivatives exchange with this move aims to make involvement in crypto trading as easy as possible for everybody.

According to Dailycoin, crypto copy trading has rapidly grown in popularity among retail investors, offering a way for newcomers to enter the market. Considering that and based on user feedback and analysis of market trends, Bitunix came up with their advanced version of Copy Trading Feature.

This new tool lets users follow experienced traders, automatically replicating their trades in the user’s account, which simplifies trading for newcomers. Both users and traders benefit—traders gain followers and a share of potential earnings, while users can view transparent performance metrics (such as ROI, win rate, and trade size) to choose traders wisely. Traders without followers can also publish trading signals to attract users.

Key Highlights of Bitunix’s Copy Trading Feature

Some of the things that can be highlighted regarding the Bitunix Copy Trading Feature are:

• One-Click Copy Trading: Users can follow a trusted trader’s strategies with a single click, enabling automated trading for both beginners and pros.
• Real-Time Data and Transparency: All traders’ historical profit data is available in real-time, helping users make informed choices with clear, transparent information.
• Personalized Copy Trading: Users can customize copy trading amounts, take profit, and stop-loss settings to match their risk preferences.
• Become a Lead Trader: Experienced traders can become lead traders, sharing strategies and earning a percentage of followers’ potential earnings.
• Avatar Selection: Traders can choose from a set of system-provided avatars (custom avatars not supported).

How Much Can a User Invest and What is the Profit-Sharing Fee with the Copied Trader?

Bitunix Copy Trading, has its limits on how much a user can invest and here’s how it works:

• Fixed Amount Mode: A user can invest anywhere from $10 to $1,000.
• Proportion Mode: A user can invest between $100 and $100,000.

In Copy Trading, when a user earns from trades they’ve copied, up to 10% of those earnings go to the trader as a profit-sharing fee. Bitunix may adjust this percentage in the future based on trader experience or performance. Currently, each trader can have up to 100 followers, with plans to increase this limit as trader levels evolve.

How Can Users Monitor Their Copy Trades?

The “My Copy Trading” module gives users detailed insights into both active and completed copy trades, including amounts, margin balances, and profit/loss. Users can monitor unlimited ongoing trades in real time (with up to 10 copy trading accounts). It also provides access to the trading positions, profit status, and past records of completed trades for review.

How Can Users detect Top-Performing Traders to Copy?

The trader list is organized to help users find top-performing traders, with rankings based on key metrics like profit and loss, return on investment, win rate, and trade volume. This structured approach makes it easier for users to select traders that best fit their investment goals.

Additionally, users can use a search function to locate specific traders within the list. For those seeking different results, the platform offers flexibility. Users unsatisfied with their current copy trading outcomes can stop following a trader or choose to follow a new one.

How to Participate in Bitunix Copy Trading

Bitunix’s Copy Trading feature simplifies trading in the fast-paced cryptocurrency market, offering an easier start for new traders compared to manual trading. The steps to participate are as follows:

• Copy Trading Users: Log in to the Bitunix platform via the website or app, navigate to the “Copy Trading” panel, select a lead trader to follow, customize trading parameters, and start automated trading instantly.
• Lead Traders: Experienced traders can apply to become lead traders on the same page, sharing their strategies and potentially earning through follower engagement.

Bitunix has also recently introduced its multi-window trading feature, aligning with its mission to provide a convenient and feature-rich trading environment.
