1/ New Year’s resolution:

✨ Make trustless data a public good ✨

What exactly do we mean by that? Let’s explain in today’s #fromtheArKYVE… 🧵⬇️ 2/ 👉 To best understand, we need to address the two main issues this statement is solving: First off, when working with data in the #Web3 space, you can’t always be sure that it’s 100% valid.

Why? Check out this #KYVEFundamentals article ⤵️
blog.kyve.network/kyve-fundament…

1/ Looking for a truly trustless tech stack for sourcing valid data? Look no further than the KYVE Network Stack, providing:

♾️ Data immutability
✅ Decentralized validation
💻 Customizable implementation
💫 & much more

Let’s break this down 🧵👇 2/ With KYVE’s mission to solve today’s #Web3 data validity & access roadblocks, our team started building special tooling around its data lake...

🛠️ Ultimately creating a tech stack that enables fast & secure Web3 building via a single trustless data platform.

1/ KYVE is looking a little different in 2023...

🎉 We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our newly updated website, Discord server & overall design to best accompany all of the major tech developments KYVE has made thus far!

Want the details? ⤵️
kyve.medium.com/kyve-kicks-off… 2/ 💡 Starting out as a bounty project for bridging @Polkadot data onto @ArweaveTeam, our founders quickly saw KYVE’s potential in solving much more than that — in the end, tackling data validity in #Web3 as a whole by making data a public good for trustless Web3 building.

1/ ⚡️ Many projects in #Web3 aim to gain mainstream adoption by providing faster solutions than in Web2. However, the more speed, the less decentralized.

🤔 Is high performance more important than decentralization? Let’s break this down in today’s #fromtheArKYVE ⤵️ 2/ 🌐 To be fully decentralized, a company must distribute its decision power across a network of nodes. These nodes might be across the globe, meaning if a decision needs to be made, it takes time to reach each one & gain a response.

1/ KYVE’s sixth protocol update is live!

We’re thrilled to announce this release of new features focusing on improving pool security, protocol node roles, the overall KYVE app user experience, & more!

Take a closer look at what’s new 🧵⬇️

blog.kyve.network/web3-data-anno… 2/ Starting with protocol node updates:

🌐 5-day delay on commission changes
🌐 Redelegation spell button
🌐 Put in “inactive state” instead of getting kicked out
🌐 Voting power proportional to the amount staked

1/ Happy Wednesday KYVE-ers, it’s time for another #fromtheArKYVE!

Being a Web3 data lake, there are an unlimited amount of ways KYVE can help the data world evolve.

That's why today, we’re diving into KYVE’s use cases, as well as what future ones might look like 👀⬇️ 2/ The classic KYVE use case is archiving data from L1 & L2 projects. But what does this actually do?

Our protocol opens the doors to numerous, more specific use cases for each role & sector in the blockchain ecosystem. Let's break these down ⤵️

1/ The day has come, KYVE-ers! We’re so thrilled to launch @KYVENetwork's incentivized testnet, Mission Korellia! 💥🥳

Strap on that seatbelt, bid adieu to outdated centralized data infrastructure, & step up to the plate because it’s time for Korellia lift-off!

Let’s dive in ⤵️ 2/ What exactly is an incentivized testnet?

When a product launches its incentivized testnet, it is launching a period of testing & development, allowing the people building the product to verify how said product will perform in a real-world context.

1/ We’re so excited to announce that @KYVENetwork has launched a @cosmos SDK-based chain, making KYVE its own layer 1! 🎉🥳

Why did we make this switch & what does this mean for the KYVE community? Let’s take a closer look ⬇️🧵 2/ KYVE’s protocol nodes previously interacted with a Solidity contract deployed on Moonbeam’s testnet, Moonbase Alpha.

While Moonbase has given us incredible support, its latest update caused us to rethink our dependencies on other chains & the impact it could have on KYVE.

Happy Wednesday & welcome to this week’s #fromtheArKYVE ✨ 

This week, we’re taking a closer look at @KYVENetwork's recently launched protocol update & how users now MUST have new $KYVE tokens to use the network. Follow along ⬇️ In order to vote on proposals and participate in the @KYVENetwork, one needs voting power, which is only issued via delegation.

Through the new update, the KYVE team has worked to improve and further secure delegation in the network.

Introducing #fromtheArKYVE, a new series where the KYVE team will break down different aspects of the KYVE network & answer questions about decentralized data storage 🌐

This week, we’re diving into what it means to store data with in-built validation 🧵⬇️ Before we get into the technicalities, let’s take a step back and define what data validation & why it’s important.

Data validation, at a high level, refers to the process of checking the accuracy & quality of data before using or importing it elsewhere.
