At @AvailProject, we want to help scale access to the onchain economy.
Avail DA provides apps with abundant scale.
Avail Nexus allows apps to scale to multiple chains. It scales users' access to any app on any chain.
At Avail, we want to accelerate the unification of web3. Glad to have the fantastic set of backers to help us achieve it.

The day is here! Weโre unfolding the cards!
Avail raises $27m, led by @foundersfund and @dragonfly_xyz to accelerate the unification of web3!
With this, weโll build the Avail trinity - a three-phase roadmap aimed at unifying multiple ecosystems in web3.

The unification drop was all about gratitude. Avail has always been built on the shoulders of giants. It was built by, for and supported by the community. And this was our chance to recognise them. We did not want to take it lightly and wanted to be as thorough as possible. I
I'm happy to see 35K+ unique LCs running in last hour. But please don't DDoS our RPC with tens of millions of requests.
Expect degraded performance while we fight this wave off.
We have iฬตnฬตtฬตeฬตrฬตnฬตaฬตlฬตlฬตy community aligned 100,000+ active light clients.
A one-of-its-kind data availability sampling peer-to-peer overlay network of 100K stable LCs now operating on top of our testnet.
Thank you everyone who accepted this challenge.
First public sneak peek of Avail Fusion
- Avail, Ethereum and Bitcoin staking from same frontend
- Transactions added to cart before being executed together in a batch
Lot more cool features and technical details to be revealed soon.
Kudos to @Leouarzz
If you're an app on Base accepting stablecoins, here is a visual comparison of what your current market is, vs what it can be with the Nexus SDK today!
You're missing out on a 36x larger userbase.
Thanks to all the awesome validators who contribute to the security of Avail.
With 105, we become one of the most decentralised networks - not just by count of validators but by how many nodes need to be malicious to halt/corrupt the chain.
Weโre excited to announce that Avail Mainnet has reached 105 active validators! ๐ฉต
A big thank you to everyone who has worked diligently since mainnet launch to achieve this milestone.

If you're collecting swag from a project, you're doing them a favour and not the other way round. You are their billboard, the shirt is an insignificant amount of their marketing budget and you are doing free marketing for them by wearing their swag. Don't let them make you feel
Oh, so much to say but held myself back against CT debate. I have always respected other people's tradeoffs, but we need to talk about both sides of a tradeoff. Otherwise, it is just bad design.
Let's take this point by point and talk about why Avail took different position on
How @eigen_da gets its hyperscale throughput?
โโโโโโโ-
EigenDA is minimalism (others may say modularism) taken to its extreme.
No P2P,
No Consensus,
No Replication,
No Leader.
โโโโโโโ-
This gives an architecture with:
No scaling limit
No censorship choke point.

We are pushing the boundaries of what is possible today.
You want to swap funds, but the liquidity is on another chain. No more explicit bridging. No more getting bad rates bcoz prices are volatile & bridging is slow.
Bridgeless experience. With ZKPs. Only on Avail Nexus.
Here is a demonstration of a cross chain swap using @AvailProject Nexus.
Components involved are:
- The Liquidity Chain
- Source Chain - where the user is
- Uses ZK Nexus ( slow path with higher security guarantees )
Flow:
- User creates intent on source chain to swap Token
Regular reminder that it takes ~135ms for light to travel around the earth. Yet, every day, you hear lower millisecond block times. I keep wondering on how they determine lower bound on block times. My mental model on block time is sum of
1. Time to produce a block
2. Time to
