Many of the best Layer 1 Blockchains  for the upcoming cycle aren't public yet.

They could 30–60x the next bull run.

Right in front of you might be the next $SOL or $ADA

🧵Here are the top 11 upcoming L0/1 Blockchains I'm most excited about

1/11 @AleoHQ

Aleo is basically „what if Ethereum and Zcash had a Baby?“

A Layer 1 Blockchain platform that uses zero-knowledge cryptography to enable private applications

https://twitter.com/AleoHQ/status/1620482402962350111

3 of the main advantages:

1 Proof of Work that is not bad for the environment (Proof of Necessary Work).

2 Maximizes permissionlessness and incentives the best validator behavior

3 Balances privacy and transparency by using SNARKs.

2/11 @shardeum

is an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible sharded blockchain with:

A) 'infinite' scalability,
B) high decentralisation
C) increased security

It is the world's first layer-one blockchain to incorporate sharding and auto-scaling to provide high throughput, low latency, and immediate finality.

3/11 Sui build by @Mysten_Labs

is a permissionless, proof-of-stake Layer 1 blockchain designed from the ground up by ex-Meta (formerly Facebook) engineers.

Read the summary here:

Sui is a direct Competitor to Aptos as both were founded by Ex -Meta employees that worked on Facebooks failed project DIEM (Libra).

https://twitter.com/thehiddenmaze/status/1570087765831729152

Sui and Aptos both utilize a Rust-based programming language called Move, though Sui's version is slightly modified

Aptos is differentiated by its Block-STM execution engine, which permits the processing of several transactions concurrently

while Sui uses Narwhal and Tusk, a DAG-based mempool.

Both are ultra-high TPS L1 blockchains that seek to find scalability solutions on their base layer

4/11 @fuellabs_

Blockchain technology is moving away from a monolithic architecture in which execution, data availability, and consensus are all intertwined.

Fuel is trying to develop the fastest execution layer for the modular blockchain stack.

There are three central pillars to Fuel’s technology stack to achieve maximum security and highest flexible throughput.

1. Parallel Transactions
2. Fuel Virtual Machine
3. Sway Language

Because execution, consensus, settlement, and data layers are all combined in a monolithic layer-1, the overall amount of bandwidth is limited

Modular blockchains are constructed with modular execution layers, which are better able to take advantage of shared data availability

5/11 @5ireChain

A fifth-generation blockchain ecosystem built with the United Nation's sustainable development goals in mind.

Also one of India’s fastest-growing unicorns.

The blockchain utilizes a nominated proof-of-stake consensus that incentives and rewards Participants financially to bring:

•Sustainability
•Technology
• Innovation

to build the 5th industrial revolution (5IR)

6/11

@CelestiaOrg is modular Blockchain (like @fuellabs_)

They makes it possible for anybody to quickly deploy their own blockchain without the hassle of bootstrapping a new consensus network.

How?
By decoupling consensus from execution

They list four main advantages:

1. Deploy Blockchains as easily as smart contracts
2. simplify scaling with data availability
3. Secure Interoperability for all Celestia Chains
4. Devs can choose their own Excecution Environment

7/11 @NetworkSubspace

It is a new blockchain powered by Proof-of-Archival-Storage (PoAS) consensus, which provides a permanent, scalable, decentralized storage solution.

Key features are:

- Radically Decentralized
- Decoupled Smart Contracts
- Distributed Archival Storage
- True Interoperability
- No compromises on scalability to solve Trilemma
- Free and Fair Consensus

8/11 @SeiNetwork

Sei Network is a sector-specific Layer 1 blockchain specialized for trading.

It promises lightning-fast transaction finality of 600ms and 22,000 orders per second.

It will have an on-chain orderbook that allows smart contracts access to shared liquidity

Features:

• High Security
battle tested Cosmos SDK& Tendermint Core

• Massive Scalability
Scaling to support large exchanges| Nasdaq of Crypto

• Specialized for exchanges
Native Order Matching

https://twitter.com/SeiNetwork/status/1585792560374910976

• Fast, faster, Sei
Lightning fast transactions, 5x faster than #Solana

• New financial products
due to Sei optimizations e.g complex options/futures

• Purpose built
Exchanges don't have to deal with the shortcomings of other L1 protocols with SEI

9/11 @ParallelChainLB

powers two layer-one blockchain platforms.

ParallelChain Private:

business-native permissioned platform powering
market-ready software built for specific business purposes

https://twitter.com/atoms_research/status/1613925810020171779?s=20

ParallelChain Mainnet:
Open-source blockchain platform
where developers can build and deploy decentralized applications using smart contracts.

ParallelChain natively supports Turing-complete smart contracts written in developer-friendly languages such as Rust and GO.

Core Features

- ParallelBFT protocol +sharding option on top
- Proof of Immutability (repeatedly, no privacy sacrifice)

- Rust, Go WASM Smart Contracts
- Advanced scaling (80,000 tps)
- Open Delegation

- Open Delegation
- Three Node Tier Operation System

10/11 @QuaiNetwork

A proof-of-work (PoW) layer 1 scaling solution.

It interweaves multiple blockchains to achieve scalability without sacrificing security and decentralization

https://twitter.com/QuaiNetwork/status/1620132047863046146?s=20

Core Features:

• Proof of Work 2.0

It employs a novel PoW 2.0 mechanism that leverages Sharding to divide a blockchain into numerous smaller blockchains in order to improve performance.

#Quai builds a network of blockchains using merged mining.

Its parent chain (Prime chain) protects other chains.

Because Quai Network is horizontally scalable, more chains can be added to the system to boost overall throughput.

https://twitter.com/corleonescrypto/status/1609221613580423172

• Multichain Architecture

@QuaiNetwork network consists of 13 chains, with Prime being the most important but hardest to mine, and Zone chains being the easiest.

Miners usually mine Prime and one other chain, and Prime serves as the foundation for all Quai operations.

11/11 @LayerZero_Labs

An omnichain interoperability protocol serving as the infrastructure layer that connects contracts across all chains.

It enables cross-chain communication with a new level of functionality and composability through its primary messaging primitive.

With LayerZero, applications have complete control over their security parameters, including the ability to choose their own:

- block confirmation
- validation
- relayer,
- oracle
- library

How do you get exposure to all these unreleased blockchains?

a) Participate in Testnets (Node, develop, bughunt)
b) Invest in projects that build on their ecosystem
c) Airdrops, ICO, Giveaway
d) Buy the token once publicly available after extensive research
