PolyCrypt

Cardano does not need another “Web2 company of Cardano.” It needs products that other ecosystems will eventually compare themselves to. AI agents with @MasumiNetwork. Digital identity and EUDI wallet infrastructure with @PolyCrypt_. Indexed Real Estate from our side coming EOY. Different use cases. Different builders. One ecosystem moving from infrastructure to real-world adoption. Build the reference. Not the copy.

Catalyst funding turns up in places worth noting. Five completed projects this round: a fan engagement concept for Juventus, Bitcoin Lightning payments, DEX tooling, AI security, and DeFi farming. ✅ Juventus Fan Engagement by @stadiaventures A fan engagement concept for Juventus FC, with Cardano use-case design and an implementation proposal. ✅ Cardinal by @PolyCrypt_ Bitcoin Lightning-style payments on Cardano via Cardinal, expanding cross-chain liquidity and DeFi utility. ✅ One Launchpad by @wingriderscom One launchpad across multiple Cardano DEXes, simplifying token deployment and broadening liquidity access from launch. ✅ Aiken AI Vulnerability Detection by @txpipe_tools AI-driven vulnerability detection for Aiken smart contracts, helping developers ship safer code on Cardano. ✅ Decentralized Farming by @MuesliSwapTeam Decentralized farming smart contracts on Cardano, with transparent staking, automated rewards, and audited tooling. Five teams, five completed milestones, and an ecosystem that keeps adding new ground.

**4/** The AMM handles pricing, Perun channels handle settlement, and the contracts make sure LPs get their principal back plus fees. You deposit and earn. More updates are coming soon!

**3/** Unlike most cross-chain bridges, no validator committees or trusted relays needed. Swaps are secured by Perun, our formally verified OSS state channel protocol. No additional setup or trust into intermediaries required. Swaps are settled on ETH and CKB smart contracts.

**1/** Cross-chain DeFi between Ethereum and CKB is coming and is powered by Perun! There will be liquidity pools on both chains with an integrated AMM. You will be able to deposit CKB or ETH and earn yield from cross-chain swaps.

🪦 Perun: SAFE Death Score: 12/100 "Congratulations, you built something so deep in the cryptographic weeds that even Claude needs to sit down and think about state channels for a while." Cause of death: N/A — Patient is alive and frankly unbothered deathbyclawd.com/?url=perun.net…

@leei1999 We don't use ZK proofs though.

zk proofs don't eliminate trust. they compress it. instead of trusting the executor, you trust the math. that's better — math doesn't lie for profit. but it does break. and when the cryptographic assumption collapses, every proof you ever accepted was wrong.

🤖Agentic payments are trending following @tempo's release of the MPP standard, which uses "payment channels" instead of on-chain transactions Get your questions in for the @PolyCrypt_ team, who has been extending their Perun channel framework to CKB!👇 reddit.com/r/NervosNetwor…

Obol has recently distributed several technical and community-focused grants to support projects and individuals building in our ecosystem. We’re pleased to spotlight the latest wave of grant recipients.

Release Spotlight: go-perun v0.15.0 - Ophelia ⚡ Adapted Libp2p wire to our Relay Server v2.0.0, enabling better key management in our State Channels 🔗 Optimized multi-asset ledger cross-chain setups for better performance and maintainability #Libp2p #StateChannels #CrossChain

@stonecoldpat0 @ameensol We have been working on cross-chain Channels for a while now. You can try out app.perun.network/demo/ for a cross-chain swap use case that uses our SDK (github.com/hyperledger-la…).

@ameensol No 😩 only good to route across networks but the lift to build that is too high right now.

should we bring back state channels?

🚀 New Release: go-perun v0.14.0 – Narvi The latest update of go-perun has been released! It now integrates libp2p networking, enabling seamless and secure peer-to-peer connection between participants in payment and virtual channels. github.com/hyperledger-la…

Looking ahead, we are working toward launching Stellar-Ethereum swaps on mainnet and expanding cross-chain integrations for more blockchains. Stay tuned for more updates! #Blockchain #Stellar #Ethereum #StateChannels

Developers can take a look at our most recent Stellar backend Release (github.com/perun-network/…) and our example code (github.com/perun-network/…) to see how simple it is to build secure cross-chain state channels for Stellar and Ethereum.

Perun Channels on Stellar are now fully cross-chain compatible with Ethereum! You can swap tokens between both networks using our PerunX dApp (test.app.perun.network/staging) and also develop your own Stellar-Ethereum dApp using the go-perun SDK to connect both blockchain ecosystems.
