Avail: Polygon (MATIC) presents new blockchain project



Polygon (MATIC) made headlines yesterday: The platform announced that it would like to launch "Avail". The team behind Polygon, which has built a network based on the Ethereum blockchain with their project, wants to offer primarily standalone chains, sidechains and off-chain solutions with “Avail”. “Avail” is supposed to establish a new type of blockchains. What does that mean exactly? You will find out in the article.

According to the press release, “Avail” is described in the English original as a “robust general-purpose scalable data availability layer”. This means that "Avail" is intended to represent a multi-purpose, scalable and data availability-oriented blockchain. The press release also mentioned the start of an interest-bearing investment called Pickle.Finance.

For "Avail" it was also announced that this application will primarily serve sidechains. This means that various scaling solutions can dock on Avail and access the transaction data. In this way, Avail can assign transactions in a scalable manner and check whether the stored data is available. Only then is a confirmation given for the next block.

Avail aims to become a better blockchain for many projects

Sounds complicated, it is too (a little). Ultimately, this new project means that a new type of blockchain checks the order and the stored data before confirming the consensus and thus verifying authenticity. Still sound complicated? 

According to the press release, the Polygon team has been working on "Avail" since late 2020. The project is currently in the devnet phase and a testnet is probably already in the works. The developers have to use "Avail" before Ethereum 2.0. To put it again in simpler terms: While it used to be necessary to check a block for authenticity on the blockchain, with "Avail" it will be sufficient to verify the data stored in the block.

Pickle.Finance: Interest-bearing collection of values

In another message, Polygon announced that Pickle.Finance will in future run on the Layer 2 solution and no longer on the Ethereum Mainnet as before. Furthermore, Pickle.Finance is to become a system in which users can collect their values ​​in so-called “pickle jars”, for example “jam jars” and then collectively receive interest.

This is how "Pickle Farms" should be created and all participating users will benefit from the joint staking. This allows users to generate pickle tokens from a variety of values.

Polygon with good prospects

Polygon was very successful last year. It has reported both strong price growth and increasing user numbers and has started many new projects. MATIC had reached its all-time high 2 months ago, but with this new project the future still seems promising (and despite Layer 2 competition on Ethereum).

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin

MSP Recovery and Tokenology aim to optimize healthcare with the help of Polygon

  MSP Recovery LLC, a Miami, US-based healthcare provider with an estimated enterprise value of $32.6 billion, is partnering with Web3 company Tokenology to jointly launch a new blockchain platform called Lifechain. Lifechain wants to leverage the verifiable and transparent nature of blockchain technology to aggregate medical care claims, medical expense reports and patient data and streamline their processing. For this purpose, MSP Recovery launched its own LifeWallet in January, which already has 1 million users. In addition to the wallet and blockchain platform, an associated crypto token called LifeCoin is also used. The press release explains that the primary purpose of the system is to enable secondary healthcare providers to more effectively bill health insurance companies for their costs. “The number of medical claims tokenized going forward will surpass $50 million per day by 2024. For this we need scalability, security and sustainability, which we have only found with Polygon

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne
