Innovative Multichain Restaking Solution Launched by Wormhole and Nuffle Labs

Wednesday. December 18 at 5:00 AM

Interoperability platform Wormhole and restaking provider Nuffle Labs have joined forces to introduce a groundbreaking multichain restaking solution. This collaboration, announced on Dec. 17, allows users to stake their tokens on any chain without the need for cross-chain bridging. By utilizing Wormhole's message-passing architecture, Nuffle Labs' NUFF Protocol, and EigenLayer's staking infrastructure, the new solution addresses liquidity fragmentation in the multi-chain staking ecosystem. Co-founder and CTO of Nuffle Labs, Firat Sertgoz, highlighted the significance of this partnership in enabling 'x from anywhere' restaking in the multi-chain environment. The introduction of native cross-chain restaking through Nuff Protocol offers users the ability to stake on any chain seamlessly. Initial support for Eigenlayer, a leading restaking protocol on Ethereum, is already in place, with a TVL exceeding $18.4 billion. Nuff Protocol users can now restake tokens from any blockchain on EigenLayer, leveraging NEAR DA and Nuffle First Finality Layer for data availability and multi-chain messaging.

Push Chain: Unifying Blockchain Communication and Transactions

Friday. December 13 at 4:00 PM

Push Protocol has introduced Push Chain, a layer 1 blockchain that bridges blockchain communication and transactions. The platform enables seamless interactions between EVM and non-EVM ecosystems, offering developers access to wallet states across different networks without the need for fragmented infrastructure. Push Chain facilitates transactions across various chains, incorporating consumer-centric features for enhanced user experiences. By introducing consumer transactions, developers can create applications that serve as universal hubs across networks. The chain's architecture, with sub-second finality, provides a scalable foundation for social platforms, gaming, finance, and cross-chain NFT trading. Push Chain's integration of notification and chat protocols at the chain level signifies a shift towards on-chain environments. The platform's compatibility with on-chain AI agents and applications opens up possibilities for advanced functionalities. Developer resources, including whitepapers and simulation environments, are available, with plans for an incentivized testnet and additional documentation to support application development across supported chains.
