Conduit Unveils G2 Sequencer, Hermetica Secures $1.7M for Bitcoin Stablecoin, Dynex Targets Quantum Computing
  • Conduit has launched the G2 Sequencer, which is touted as 10 times more powerful than existing sequencers for rollup frameworks.

  • This innovative technology offers an impressive processing capability of 50-100 Mgas/s, significantly enhancing the performance of complex applications.

  • The G2 Sequencer is designed to improve the operation of blockchain applications, particularly during user activity spikes, making it ideal for Web3 games and DeFi protocols.

  • In fact, it provides 100 times the computing power of Ethereum, allowing for faster operations without incurring additional costs.

  • In the realm of stablecoins, Hermetica has secured $1.7 million in seed funding for its bitcoin-backed yield-bearing stablecoin, USDh, which has been launched on the Stacks layer-2 network.

  • This funding round was led by UTXO Management, with participation from CMS Holdings and Ethos Fund, marking a significant milestone as the first bitcoin-backed stablecoin in the market.

  • Meanwhile, Dynex is conducting a $50 million venture capital round to attract top-tier investors, emphasizing ethical standards through transparency with blockchain.

  • Dynex has also unveiled a 10-year roadmap to transition from GPU-based quantum emulation to silicon quantum chips, aiming to capture 25% of the quantum computing market by 2034.

  • The company plans to release its first Apollo Silicon Quantum Chip by 2025 and scale to 1 million qubits by 2034 for real-time quantum computations.

  • In a related effort, Exponential Science, supported by Hedera, aims to tackle complex societal challenges and drive innovation through research and collaboration.

  • Founded by Paolo Tasca and Nikhil Vadgama, Exponential Science explores the convergence of blockchain, AI, and quantum computing.
