With the Avail DA mainnet approaching, it's about time we gave you a refresher on its core features. They make us different from other DA layers.
A deep-dive into
1. Validity proofs
2. Erasure coding
3. Light clients
4. Data availability sampling
5. Expandable blockspace

Avail gives you interoperability with all other blockchains, no matter where you choose to build. OP Stack, Ethereum, Polygon CDK, you name it.
With the foundation of a common DA layer built for security and scale (Avail DA), interoperability between chains is drastically simplified.
Why?
They share a common trust zone. DA provides transaction ordering, and then execution proofs verify state transitions.
How?
Combining both transaction ordering and execution proofs is the key.
Nexus doesn’t enforce integration requirements on developers - you can build wherever and Nexus just works.
Hear us out, if you’re building an L2 on Bitcoin, you should use Avail. Here’s why:
BTC L2s can move 99% faster when leveraging Avail DA as an intermediate fast DA layer before posting to Bitcoin for DA.
Avail DA has 20 sec blocks and takes around 2 blocks to reach finality providing DA guarantees to L2s in ~40 seconds.
Bitcoin has 10min blocks and reaches finality every 6 blocks providing finality in ~1 hour.
Your BTC L2 can post transactions to Avail DA every 20 seconds and receive interim finality in 40 seconds. Transactions can then be posted to BTC for DA every 10 min and finalize in ~1 hour.
It's time for the final few steps for Avail DA's mainnet!
So far, thousands of chains have been deployed and more than 100 million transactions have been processed on the testnet. We just have a few more things to do before we launch our mainnet.
1. Light Client Challenge to test the core part of Avail DA's infrastructure.
2. Deploying the final testnet that will run in parallel with the mainnet indefinitely for testing.
3. Tooling/Infra Optimization including bridging UI and extending hardware wallet support amongst other enhancements.
4. Getting production ready by fine-tuning incident management and critical response processes so that we can respond to any emergencies.
5. Close Clash of Nodes incentivized testnet. Information about rewards for participants is coming soon.
6. We’ll gradually increase our validator count as we establish the strongest and most decentralized security layer in the modular ecosystem.
7. Rollup Stack Integrations so that developers can build on whichever stack they like.
8. We have a lot of exciting launch partners and are working towards on-boarding more every day before the final release of mainnet!
Of course, there are also some exciting steps we’ll be taking along the way to incentivize and reward our community for their participation

Users, developers, and validators can engage with the testnet through Galxe's Quest platform. The Galxe Quest platform will feature activities involving the core chain, its enshrined applications, and projects building in the ecosystem.

Sign Protocol: Establish Unprecedented Levels of On-Chain Trust
Sign Protocol is an omni-chain platform designed for control and creation of on-chain attestations.
Here is in-depth overview of Sign Protocol written by Co-Founder, and CTO @headcpx: https://t.co/TpH6MmH1mD
So, what sets Sign Protocol apart?
Open ecosystem with verifiable consent bridging
Sign Protocol is omni-chain, with the ability to operate on Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, much like EthSign Next. Sign Protocol offers verifiable consent bridging that enables schemas and attestations to be freely bridged between all supported chains, including Arweave. For example, if you attested on Arweave but want to move your consent to other chains for the sake of smart contract interoperability, we can get it done. Actually, scratch that — we don���t get it done, YOU get it done!
Tailored Storage
Optimize your approach with the robust guarantees of on-chain storage or the cost-efficiency of Arweave. Sign Protocol effectively bridges these options for decentralization without breaking the bank.
Attest with No Gas Limits
If your attestation data size results in skyrocketing gas fees, simply offload it to Arweave or IPFS* with our help and store a lightweight CID instead. Sign Protocol schemas and attestations have built-in indicators that make it clear where data should be fetched from. If you are not a fan of decentralized storage or have data custody restrictions, we also support unchecked custom storage locations.
Sign Protocol is built with privacy at its core
EthSign Password Manager is integrated into Sign Protocol to make passwordless private attestations possible on public blockchains. Make the contents of your attestation visible to nobody but specified recipients with a single click, only at Sign Protocol.
Here is a thread on how EthSign’s Password Manager works: https://t.co/XgxE20hWGW
What can you achieve with Sign Protocol?
Utilize hooks contracts to implement customized logic, fostering reputation systems, targeted airdrops, and novel decentralized applications driven by verified data.
Streamlined Web2 integrations with zkAttestations empower trust-based interactions without dependence on centralized intermediaries. User credentials and activity become verifiable through zero-knowledge proofs.

@VibezNY Limitless Spotup is going to get patched. It’s currently restricted to shots from 30+ ft and only in catch and shoot situations. We’re going to make it so that either Chef or Limitless will always work on deep 3’s
