Vision
Most people share opinions about the future all the time. Prices will go up. A product will fail. A technology will win. An election will swing. These opinions show up in conversations, social media threads, and headlines. They are loud but cheap. Being wrong rarely costs anything. Yet real decisions

We recently took a look back at some of the utility introduced to Reactive Network so far in 2025, now it's time to look ahead. By 2026, Reactive Contracts are no longer an experiment. They are part of the baseline expectations for how on-chain systems behave. Contracts that

Reactive Network began with a simple observation: most smart contracts spend their lives waiting. They wait for users, bots, or keepers to notice something has changed and to push them into action. Reactive Contracts invert that relationship. They remain alert, notice changes on-chain as they happen, and respond automatically. In
Earlier this year, just a month after Reactive Mainnet launch, we introduced Reactive's Sequencer, a component that has become the cornerstone of our technology stack. The Sequencer rollout addressed critical challenges in the existing architecture, particularly around the quality and consistency of incoming data streams from origin chains,
Blockchain is reaching a tipping point. After years of experimentation, the first signs of institutional-grade infrastructure are beginning to emerge. Two markets stand out as the drivers of this shift: tokenized real-world assets (RWA) and decentralized finance (DeFi). The challenge, however, is no longer raw throughput. The bottleneck is coordination.
Reactive Network’s first hardfork, Amber, marks a major upgrade toward stability and decentralization by removing direct dependencies on other blockchains. A new component called the Sequencer will simplify integration, improve resilience, and bring us closer to full validator decentralization.
Reactive Network’s mainnet is launching on March 5th, 2025, introducing event-driven smart contracts, seamless cross-chain automation, and AI-powered dApps—marking the next evolution in blockchain automation.
Reactive Network launches a $3 million Developer Fund, offering grants, mentorship, and resources to innovators building on its event-driven, cross-chain platform.
We are excited to announce the upcoming launch of the REACT token, the native utility token for the Reactive Network, which will play a central role in our ecosystem. This announcement also includes important details regarding the 1:1 token swap from PRQ to REACT, so be sure to read
What happens when contracts that need to see everything meet technology designed to conceal nearly all information? Reactive Contracts aren’t simply idle until invoked. Instead, they observe the entire crypto ecosystem ready to spring into action the moment something interesting happens. It’s essentially giving your contracts a distributed
As of January 13, we’ve wrapped up all three Reactive bounty programs and what a run it’s been! Across these challenges, builders pushed Reactive Contracts in different directions, explored new automation patterns, and shipped a lot of genuinely impressive code. Today, we’re excited to share the two
Our third bounty has drawn to a close so it's now time to announce the winners of our second bounty! The results of judging for the third bounty will be announced in one week, on January 12. Second bounty winners There was a mismatch between the deadline time
We’re excited to roll out ReacDEFI v2, the latest version of the first app built on Reactive Network. This release brings a fresh new design, smoother flows, and ongoing on-chain automation improvements. ReacDEFI is built to take the hassle out of DeFi risk management. By pairing Reactive Contracts with
Starting today, U.S. customers of Coinbase and OKX will be able to purchase REACT directly inside their exchange interfaces, with every buy executed on-chain, against existing REACT liquidity pools. This is an access upgrade, not a native exchange orderbook. Both exchanges are expanding their on-chain asset purchase flow, meaning
Our second Reactive bounty has just concluded, so it's now time to announce the winners of our first Reactive bounty and to share details on the third Reactive bounty too! The task for the third bounty is described on DoraHacks, and we’ll also outline it briefly here.
Reactive Network is bringing the REACT token to Base, improving accessibility for holders and reducing the cost of trading and transferring REACT on-chain. This expansion does not introduce new protocol functionality, Reactive Contracts operate exactly as before. What changes is the user experience around interacting with the token. Why Base
When discussing block time, TPS, and finality, remember that none of these metrics exist in isolation. They interact, conflict, and force difficult choices. Every network is a bundle of tradeoffs, and understanding those tradeoffs helps make sense of why hundreds of different blockchains exist, each claiming to be better than
Another staking season is winding down. The 90-day pool unlocks at block 3,384,799 on December 7th, wrapping up a season where more than 121 million REACT were staked and participants earned an average 11.44% APY. Now it’s time to shift our gaze toward Season 4, which
The subscription model is standard in Web2, but reproducing it on-chain has been difficult. Traditional recurring payments depend on centralized processors and off-chain scheduling, none of which map cleanly to blockchain execution. NFT SUB addresses this by expressing subscriptions as verifiable on-chain events. Implemented as a TypeScript SDK, NFT SUB
You have just sold your car. The buyer hands you cash, you hand over the keys, and you both walk away. The transaction is done, irreversible and final. Now imagine they paid with a check instead. You deposit it, but there's a waiting period. The check might bounce.
Our bounty program keeps rolling, on Sunday we closed submissions for the first challenge, a Cross-Chain Oracle. We received 23 submissions, and we’ll be reviewing them over the coming week. Huge thanks to everyone who submitted a build, it’s great to see so many engaged hackers and a
