Just two weeks after shipping v4, we're thrilled to launch @unichain At Uniswap, we aim to build the best possible experience for onchain markets Unichain is the next big step ‒ an L2 designed for DeFi. Launching as a stage 1 rollup with 1 second blocktimes, it only gets better from here. In the months and year to come, we will be launching many new improvements to accelerate blockchain scaling Flashblocks - a block builder in collab with Flashbots, that will reduce blocktimes from 1s to 0.25s, allow most MEV to be returned to users, and provide additional transparency + decentralization for transaction ordering/sequencing Seemless interop - we aim for unichain to be the spearhead for advancing what is possible with interoperable L2s, through our partnership with @Optimism as well as our work on intents Unichain validation network - finally, we plan to continue pushing on L2 decentralization through UVN, which will add an additional layer of economic security and validation on top of the sequencer through staking In other words, relentless shipping will continue until Ethereum scales and DeFi is bigger than tradfi+cefi combined In just four months of testnet the network processed ~100M transactions. Now it's live with 80+ projects already building on top (plus @Uniswap + v2, v3, and v4 deployments already live) I can't wait to see what the community builds on top 🦄⛓️🦄⛓️🦄⛓️🦄⛓️🦄⛓️🦄⛓️🦄⛓️🦄⛓️
