The blockchain market has grown rapidly during the COVID-19 pandemic driven by P2E gaming.

The emergence of token standards has been a game-changer for the blockchain industry, fostering significant growth. From the pioneering ERC-20 to the rising BRC-20, these standards have instilled immense value in decentralized finance's development and widespread adoption.

ZetaChain is a cross-chain platform that utilizes the native token ZETA for cross-chain message transmission. It can interact with assets that do not support smart contracts and build special protocols. The ZETA token plays a crucial role in network incentives, transaction fees, and governance. Compared to its competitor LayerZero, ZetaChain has an advantage in the field of full-chain smart contracts. Axelar is also a cross-chain information platform that ensures security using MPC and the AXL token, and ensures the authenticity of information through Oracle networks and risk management networks. ZetaChain aims to address the issues of blockchain fragmentation and interoperability but still faces security risks. Looking forward to its continued development alongside other technologies.

This article provides a detailed introduction to the cross-chain project Zetachain and how it addresses the issue of full-chain interoperability.

AI x Crypto encompasses multiple subfields, including AI Agents, decentralized computing, data, oracles, ZKML, FHEML, coprocessors, Memes, generative art platforms, and gaming applications.

Pyth is an efficient oracle protocol that provides reliable price data through a pull model. Similar to a push model, it delivers data to off-chain engines, providing price updates when on-chain requests data. Pyth has been adopted by several prominent projects such as Synthetix and Helium, and has expanded to serve the most diverse blockchains. The maximum supply of its ecosystem token PYTH is 10 billion, allocated to the community, provider incentives, ecosystem growth, protocol development, and private sales. Pyth's goal is to make all world financial market data available for Web3.

Recently, there has been a lot of discussion around EigenLayer's restaking and LRT, with users betting on airdrop expectations for different protocols, making restaking the hottest topic in the Ethereum ecosystem. This article discusses LRT's investment portfolio, sources of income, and penalty risks, as well as EigenLayer's restrictions on LST restaking and the development of Native Restaking. Currently, the ETH flowing into EigenLayer through LRT accounts for 55% of the total TVL, and limiting LST might be a means to promote the development of Native Restaking.

DePIN is an abbreviation for Decentralized Physical Infrastructure, referring to projects that require hardware devices to deploy their decentralized networks. IoTex, along with Foresight Venture and FutureMoney Group, established the DePIN Surf Accelerator, providing projects with financial support, media promotion, and entrepreneurial experience. This includes Ator Network, InferiX GPU, Wayru Network, and PowerPod, all of which leverage blockchain technology to allow the general public to participate in network operations and earn incomes. InferiX provides accelerated computing services, Wayru Network provides wireless network services, and PowerPod builds a decentralized electric vehicle charging network. Unlike DeFi projects, DePIN places more emphasis on expanding user base, but balancing token subsidies with sustainable project development is a challenge. This track has tremendous potential and is worth paying attention to.

Cartesi is a project that addresses the developer scarcity issue in the crypto ecosystem, allowing dApps to be built using preferred programming languages and tools, combined with application-specific rollups and a Linux runtime. Mainnet support has been launched, with a staking module and a $1 million USDC funding program. The market capitalization is only $325 million, but with partnerships with well-known brands and multiple dApps in the pipeline, it is expected to return to all-time highs this cycle. In the future, it is possible to enter the top 100-150 projects of Coingecko, with a market value exceeding US$2 billion.

Public goods are a fundamental concept in Western economics concerning the collective well-being of society and the market. In Web3, this concept entails being adequately non-excludable and non-rivalrous.

The reported move, if confirmed, could have serious ramifications for the blockchain’s developers. But success for the troubled regulator is far from certain and unanswered questions abound.

Particle Network V2 is the first user intent-centered Web3 modular access layer, providing a breakthrough in privacy protection and efficiency optimisation. The system introduces two new explorations: private login and private transaction, allowing users to hide addresses and transactions without compromising the login experience. In addition, through the Intent Fusion Protocol, Particle Network V2 can automatically understand, dissect and execute user intentions, thus abstracting the interaction process so that users can focus on their goals rather than tedious technical details. The innovative design of this system is expected to promote the transformation of Web3 from an engineer-friendly financial industry to a user-friendly consumer industry, bringing unprecedented possibilities to the development of Web3.

ETHDenver is a community-owned innovation event focused on empowering the Web3 community and fostering the development of blockchain technologies. It has solidified its status as the world's largest Web3 #BUIDLathon for enthusiasts, designers, and developers within Ethereum and other blockchain networks.
