What Is Quantum Supremacy, and Why Is It Such a Computing Milestone?

For the moment, the public-private key encryption techniques on which bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are based cannot be broken by a quantum computer. But Google's researchers, in their paper, predict that quantum computing power will continue to advance at a "double exponential rate," so those bitcoins may not be safe for all that much longer.

The 53-qubit quantum computer can break any 53-bit cryptography in seconds, meaning Bitcoin’s 256-bit encryption is vulnerable once Google scales its quantum computing to 256 qubits, something their own scientists say will be possible by 2022.

Market just took a super mega epic gigantic rekt dump in last 12 hrs (why is it that, it always happens when u r sleeping 😂), haven't seen such aggressive selling in a long time

BTC : -12% (low 7800)
ETH : - 15% (low 150.03)
EOS : - 22% (low 2.42)
ALGO : - 25% (low 0.17)
BNB : -16% (low 14.5) [hope u r still holding for next IEO & got rekt]
BTMX : - 13% (low 0.05)

If you think correction is over, not so fast.

#BetaMainnet

In preparations to our Beta Mainnet launch, we are launching PlasMatic series to educate larger blockchain community about Plasma

We have created a four-part series about Plasma and Matic’s own variation through its More Viable Plasma (MoreVP), an account-based implementation of the scalability model.

Ethereum’s shortcomings came to the spotlight during the 2017 ICO bubble where high transaction volumes increased gas prices and caused excessive network congestion.

It was made apparent that scalability was a key factor in stagnating mass adoption.

Matic Network took it upon themselves to develop a framework towards an account-based plasma.

Throughout this series, we will cover Ethereum, the development of Plasma, how Matic Network is leading scalability solutions, and more.

We will also be launching insightful posts on pioneering security and scalability technical implementations done by our team in the upcoming Beta Mainnet release

Here’s to the evolution of #PlasMatic!

2KEY Transparency initiative✅

Transparency is a core concept of Blockchain. As a company that has built one of the most extensive protocols and DApps on blockchain, we do not fear being questioned.

Therefore we decided to add all our patents, partnerships, and other important documents/data into a Public Due Diligence Folder, accessible to everyone. 🤝

Matic introduces Plasma Predicates - one step towards generalized Plasma

We have been working hard on various fronts to introduce generalised scaling techniques, while still ensuring security. We are therefore proud to announce that Matic will support Plasma Predicates in our upcoming release.

This is the first time predicates are being used in a production-ready system & we couldn’t be more excited to be pioneering its implementation.

Implementing Plasma predicates allows us to now deploy newer state transition support to our Plasma contracts, without having to re-deploy our existing root contracts.

Now devs can add new Plasma functionality by creating a new contract that implements the necessary logic for that feature and then have our main contract reference the new one. These external contracts are called ‘predicates’.

Here’s to the next big development milestone in the journey of Matic🥂

Introducing Heimdall and Bor - Matic’s Validator and Block Production layers

Matic Network is a hybrid Plasma + Proof-of-Stake (PoS) platform that uses a dual-consensus architecture to optimize for speed and decentralization. We have been actively working on the Validator and Block Producer nodes iteration, which will be released in the upcoming Beta mainnet.

Heimdall, meaning ‘the All-Protector’ is our Proof-of-Stake Verifier layer, which is responsible for checkpointing a representation of the Plasma blocks to the main chain in our architecture.

The Bor node, or the Block Producer implementation, is the sidechain operator which is EVM-compatible. Block Producers are chosen from the Validator set and are shuffled using historical Ethereum block hashes. However we are exploring sources of randomness for this selection.

We are excited to be rolling out these crucial components of our network in our upcoming Beta mainnet release!

Matic and Axie Infinity are hosting a hackathon together for developers to build Axie based games on Matic sidechains.

We are thrilled to announce that we are teaming up with Axie Infinity, one of the biggest games in the blockchain gaming space, to accelerate the adoption of decentralized gaming!

Together we will be co-hosting India’s first ever blockchain gaming hackathon, taking place in Bangalore. Budding blockchain developers will battle over $4000 of bounty prizes by #BUIDLing awesome gaming hacks on our infrastructure.

There are also many developers already building games using the Axie platform on Matic Network, which will continue to increase as we push ahead with our mutual adoption efforts.

We couldn’t be more thrilled to be taking a prominent role in furthering blockchain gaming, and beyond, alongside one of blockchain’s top gaming projects.

Announcing the Battle of Nodes - an epic Testnet-as-a-Battleground event

In order to make Elrond a sustainable layer that will stand tall in the face of any challenge, we are building antifragility into its core. Right from the testnet phase we invite everyone to discover what it means to run a node, earn rewards, and put the network through a trial by fire so it will emerge stronger.

The Battle of Nodes will feature an adversarial environment where test node operators will be rewarded for securing the network and even more so for trying to attack it.

Some will attack. Some will secure. You might do both. How will you win?

$50,000 reward pool
