San Francisco, USA / California, October 10th, 2024, Chainwire

Constellation Network’s “HyDef ‘24” conference will take place on Thursday, October 24, 2024, featuring a free daylong virtual event combined with a live in-person event for a nominal fee at 1 Hotel in San Francisco.

Constellation Network is a unique Web3 framework with new open-source tooling that empowers companies and individuals to build blockchain networks for Big Data, creating trust and transparency around data collection, validation, and transacting. Nicknamed “America’s Blockchain,” Constellation Network actively works with entities such as the U.S. Military, The Digital Chamber, the Texas Blockchain Association, Space ISAC, and the National DigiFoundry. Constellation has been validated and approved by the U.S. Department of Defense through the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) as a, “Scalable, Secure and Defense-Approved Blockchain technology.” 

“So much work has been going on behind the scenes which is why HyDef is a great forum to bring it to the forefront around one action packed event. Since the launch of Metagraphs, it’s been hard to keep up with all the inbound interest from federal, enterprise and academia. We are excited to not only give updates on what has matured but also unveil new expressions that truly separate Constellation apart in the Web3 industry.” – Benjamin Diggles, Constellation Co-founder and CSO

Constellation’s HyDef ‘24 conference will deliver a jam-packed day of ground-breaking insights. Conference sessions cover secure information-sharing in a zero-trust world, the future of finance and blockchain, the evolving regulatory environment, government and blockchain, and much more.

Hackathon-winning projects will be showcased at the event where developers have leveraged Constellation’s big data transaction and validation capabilities to build apps that gather and validate data at scale. These apps feed the data into AI or causal models to give businesses and individuals insights based on more input than we’ve heretofore been able to process.

Another HyDef highlight will be the long-awaited reveal of the details of the working relationship between Constellation and Panasonic. The work the two companies are doing together has the potential to bring Constellation’s technology and blockchain-secured edge computing to the world en masse in a meaningful way.

“The Constellation Community is the backbone to our ecosystem. HyDef is a time for us all to come together, celebrate the progress in our ecosystem, give visibility to our partners, and gear up for the future of Constellation. By bringing together thought leaders, builders, and new product development we paint a picture for new opportunities in distributed networks and the communities that build them.”- Ben Jorgensen, Constellation Co-founder and CEO

The in-person event will be held at the 1 Hotel in San Francisco and will require a nominal $150 fee. Attendees include representatives from Panasonic, the Greer Institute at Intel, Forward Edge AI, venture capitalists, The Digital Chamber, the Constellation leadership team, along with Stardust Collective community leaders.

The virtual event is free to attend with access via livestream to all keynote speeches, panel discussions, and hackathon showcases in real time. Virtual attendees can engage directly with speakers and panelists through Q&A and live chat features, and may connect with other attendees in virtual event spaces.

“Our metagraph application layer just released to the public, and this is the perfect time for us to showcase our Hackathon winners, our partners, and our progress. I’m excited for the chance to bring the industry together in this unique format and share ideas and ways we can work together and build together.”- Altif Brown, Constellation co-founder, Head of Community, and conference organizer

Lausanne, Vaud, October 9th, 2024, Chainwire

Zyfi has announced the launch of its community sale for whitelisted users and public investors. Zyfi provides the best on-chain experiences, leveraging Paymaster and Intents powered by ZKsync. After successfully completing a $3 million private funding, Zyfi is now nearing its token launch event (TGE) with a final community round to allow early adopters to participate in the Zyfi token journey.

Zyfi has established partnerships with several prominent platforms, including SyncSwap, PancakeSwap, and Koi Finance, to serve as their official paymaster. Zyfi helps them provide the best on-chain experiences, such as gas-free transactions and allowing users to pay gas with any token, whether using EOAs or Smart Wallets.

Zyfi has already processed over 1.5M transactions for more than 200,000 users on ZKsync and has deployed its smart contracts on three other chains: Cronos zkEVM, Abstract (backed by Pudgy Penguins), and PlayFi.

Powered by an API that streamlines protocol complexities, Zyfi’s approach not only simplifies user experiences but also democratizes access, enabling broader on-chain engagement without the hassle of managing ETH for gas.

On October 8, Zyfi revealed a checker to participate in their community sale to purchase their ZFI token. The community sale is divided into two main phases: a Whitelist Phase, offering first access to Zyfi’s partners and community, followed by a Public Phase open to everyone. The Whitelist Phase presents various advantages, such as the opportunity to invest 24 hours before the public sale and receive a 10% cashback in ZK on the investment amount (e.g., $10,000 invested = $1,000 worth in ZK). The Public Phase is open to anyone who believes in Zyfi’s vision of building the best on-chain experiences leveraging Paymasters and Intents, with the same terms as the Whitelist Phase but without the ZK reward.

The checker is now live, allowing users to determine which sale event they can participate in, providing advantages for whitelisted users while giving everyone the opportunity to invest.

The ZFI token is a utility token that can be used to pay gas fees on the Zyfi platform and Zyfi’s integration partners. Holders who choose to pay gas fees with ZFI benefit from a direct 20% discount on the total gas cost, making transactions more cost-effective. Additionally, ZFI is the only way to acquire stZFI, the governance token of the Zyfi DAO. By holding and staking ZFI tokens, users can participate in Zyfi governance, with 30% of the total supply under their control, influencing key decisions such as fee activation, reward allocation, and grant distribution. Stakers will also earn an APY in Zyfi staking points based on their staked amount.

Blockchain storage layer Xandeum has announced that it will reveal its blueprint for scaling Solana storage at Breakpoint 2024 on September 20, 2024. At the flagship Solana conference in Singapore, Xandeum will also share details of its new storage-enabled liquid staking program and officially announce the launch of the XAND token.

Designed to overcome the limitations of Solana’s current storage model, Xandeum’s technology will allow dapps to scale by accessing virtually unlimited storage. Solana can be looked at as a “world computer”, and Solana accounts are its “RAM”. At Breakpoint 2024, Xandeum will share its vision for adding the “hard drive” via their scalable storage layer, the missing piece to a full-fledged world computer. This innovation enables a Cambrian Explosion of storage-enabled dapps.

The smart contract native storage layer introduces “Xandeum buckets,” an exabytes+ scalable file system integrated directly into Solana RPC nodes. Storage will be offloaded to a decentralized network of hundreds of thousands of storage provider nodes (pNodes), supervised by Xandeum-enabled Solana validators. pNodes, validators, and liquid stakers will earn additional rewards in SOL, thanks to highly dynamic fee markets designed to optimize storage efficiency and profitability.

“A low-cost, decentralized storage solution will drastically expand the application landscape.” says Tommy Johnson, early Solana builder, co-founder, and lead engineer at Armada. “It can unlock a new revenue stream for SOL validators and stakers. The Xandeum solution will have an enormous impact on the growth of the Solana ecosystem.”

More details of Xandeum’s Solana scaling solution will be shared at Breakpoint 2024. In addition, Xandeum will use the event to announce its storage-enabled liquid staking platform. Scheduled to go live on October 29, the platform will capture future Xandeum storage fees for xandSOL stakers. Early adopters who stake with Xandeum will be eligible for boosted rewards of up to 10x with more details at https://xandeum.network

As an event sponsor, the Xandeum team will have its own booth at Solana Breakpoint 2024 in Singapore, with community members able to learn more about key initiatives including the liquid staking pool, XAND token, and forthcoming airdrops. The first airdrop snapshot will take place on October 8, with the XAND token launch scheduled for October 29.

Xandeum’s development of new storage primitives to enhance Solana’s programming model will solve the issues with the current storage system, known as “accounts,” which has proven insufficient to hold even a few gigabytes per dapp. These limitations threaten to stifle the growth of web3 applications on Solana.

Xandeum lead developer Xandeum Labs has raised $2.8M to build out its scaling solution and has seen significant interest from Solana’s builder community, with over 4B transactions completed on its community-run devnet. Xandeum will support a new wave of scalable web3 dapps while maintaining Solana’s security and decentralization. 

About Xandeum Labs

Xandeum Labs is a web3 startup dedicated to building the scalable storage layer for Solana. As a major contributor to the world’s first storage-enabled liquid staking platform, operated by the XAND DAO, Xandeum has already raised $2.8 million from its community and is on track to launch its pNode network in early 2025.
