Evolve 🧬

Congrats to @xomarket on the $6M seed raise! Polymarket and Kalshi opened the door. XO is blowing through it with permissionless markets anyone can spin up in seconds. Quick read on why @AliHabbabeh and the team chose Evolve + @celestia to make it possible below.

800K+ collectors, 8M+ NFTs from Disney, Marvel, Star Wars and more are processed by @veve_official, an application on top of @CollectChain, built using the Evolve (@ev_stack) SDK and using Celestia for blockspace. @CollectChain is a purpose-built chain for licensed digital collectibles, enforcing royalties and licensing rules onchain. By using @ev_stack for execution and Celestia for blockspace, @CollectChain: - gets 250ms finality for the transactions it processes, - retains control over execution, fees and its own upgrade schedule, and - inherits decentralised security guarantees by posting its block data to Celestia without the unnecessary operational, engineering, or financial bulk of bootstrapping a validator set, among other benefits. The article below describes an architecture that allows products to spend less time operating network infrastructure, and more time building for its users.

If you’re building something rule-heavy, shared execution gets painful very quickly. If you need deterministic processing, policy controls, or 24/7 ops, you need to own execution.

Building a chain is only part of the work. Many teams forget that launching a chain shouldn’t take away from building their product. This is why we are partnering with teams to bring a suite of products to make chain deployment as seamless as possible. Need a scalable db for the off chain part of your app? Checkout ObsessionDB!!

Evolve comes with multi-sequencer support. Run a cluster of sequencer nodes that coordinate leader election and state replication across the group. If the active sequencer fails, a standby takes over and keeps producing blocks. No downtime, no manual intervention.

Agents need more than just wallets. They need to know "who can spend what," proof of what was bought, guardrails and clean retries when things don't go as expected. Who's building this?

We are implementing native fee sponsorship in ev-reth. PR #96 enables apps to sponsor user transactions directly at the execution level. No more forcing users to find a way to bridge native tokens just to try a product. Huge shoutout to @tempo for the inspo here. Their work on fee sponsorship and the Tempo Transactions model is top-tier. github.com/evstack/ev-ret…

You don’t need to rent blockspace. You don’t need a validator set. You don’t need permission to launch.

Evolve lets chains flip between based and single sequencer modes depending on network conditions. If the sequencer goes down, the chain switches to based. When it comes back online, blocks get fast again. @celestia makes this possible with their evolving high throughput DA layer

Sometimes it's good to ask yourself: Self, do I NEED to take on the overhead of consensus? More often than not, the answer is NO. Then... it's time to Evolve.

Forced inclusion is now live on evolve. github.com/evstack/ev-nod…  In simple terms, it makes censorship pointless. If a sequencer refuses to include your transaction, you can force it onchain anyway. Users get guaranteed access and apps get stronger guarantees

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED??!?!?

For years, we thought launching a chain meant launching a validator set. We were wrong. With Evolve + Celestia, you get: ✅ Full sovereignty ✅ No emissions ✅ No validator overhead Ready to ship? → ev.xyz
