Ethereum's values—security, openness, and decentralization—don't stop at Layer 1. @taikoxyz has expanded upon these values and built the first Rollup on Ethereum. Anyone can build blocks, without the need for a centralized sorter. Consensus is ensured by Ethereum's validators themselves. This structure makes Taiko the most compatible Layer 2 blockchain to date with Ethereum, offering censorship resistance, decentralization, and trusted neutrality. Leveraging Ethereum's validator set, Taiko directly inherits Ethereum's security; it doesn't replicate it, but rather extends it. Recently, Taiko introduced a pre-confirmation mechanism, allowing transactions to settle in approximately 2 seconds. This is the first Rollup to implement pre-confirmations. Pre-confirmations are currently whitelisted and will be available to all block builders after Ethereum's upcoming Shasta upgrade, marking another milestone in decentralized scaling. With pre-confirmation live, even more possibilities become possible: ⚙️ Real-time user experience 🏛 Institutional-grade applications 🌍 Tokenized real-world assets Taiko's focus remains the same: decentralization and security first, upon which everything else is built. Ankr provides the RPC layer, connecting builders to the Taiko network and offering fast and reliable access to the blockchain, proving that scalability doesn't have to come at the expense of trust. 🔗 Ethereum principles. Layer 2 speed. Taiko delivers both.

The number of people joining the Neuraverse has now surpassed 500,000. That means 500,000. This is before mainnet. g∩eura.

At the Token2049 conference in Singapore, Ankr partnered with @KaiaChain, one of Asia's fastest-growing blockchains, to launch a hackathon designed to truly impact the ecosystem. Through our Hackathon Supercharger program, we went beyond sponsoring a competition. We provided every developer with access to the same enterprise-grade RPC infrastructure as Kaia. Our offerings included: - Free RPC Resources – Enterprise-grade access to Ankr's global, low-latency infrastructure, enabling you to build and scale without bottlenecks. - Expert DevRel Support – On-site guidance and reviews from the Ankr DevRel team to help optimize architecture and connectivity. - Co-Marketing and Promotion – Jointly branded content and media outreach highlighted outstanding projects and Kaia's developer-first culture. - Prize Pool Contribution – $15,000 in Ankr RPC Credits to help the winning team continue development after the hackathon. The result? Dozens of new projects launched, thousands of developers engaged, and an ecosystem centered around deployable innovation, not hype. Want to learn more?
