MEXC, a global top 10 digital asset trading platform, has entered into a strategic partnership to support the launch of a rollup solution that is secured by the Bitcoin network. Rollux OPv1 is Syscoinâs first in a series of planned rollup implementations secured by Bitcoinâs own PoW network. MEXC has allocated a $20m fund for kickstarting projects to utilize the new Syscoin layer-two which was recently released on a public testnet.
Syscoin is a modular blockchain that incentivizes Bitcoinâs miners and thereby inherits roughly 20â30% of Bitcoinâs hashrate today. Syscoin accomplishes this through a carbon-neutral process called merged-mining. By combining this extension of Bitcoinâs own security with a utility-focused economy, an EVM coupled with finality, and rollups, the project aims to serve Web3 at global scale to provide the opportunity for worldwide financial inclusivity. That is, actualization of a new concept some refer to as Web5.
Leo Zhao, investment manager of MEXC Ventures, has this to say:
Our new collaboration with Syscoin is part of the MEXC commitment to empower solid and innovative projects that push the boundaries of blockchain to solve big problems. Weâre excited to see where Syscoin can go, and how builders and users will take advantage of this novel design.
As an alternative to post-Merge Ethereum, Syscoin offers decentralized finality by way of âmulti-quorum chainlocksâ, along with data availability on layer-one through an innovation called PoDA (Proof of Data Availability). These bring similar effects as those Ethereum plans to achieve in the future. Syscoinâs NEVM chain is also fully compatible with Ethereum smart contracts. In all, these make Syscoin the carbon-neutral Proof of Work alternative to Ethereumâs Proof of Stake approach. As philosophical debates continue between the two schools of thought, Ethereum users who are PoW adherents can now look toward Syscoin.
Bradley Stephenson, Syscoin Foundation Board Member, comments:
Itâs great that MEXC is demonstrating such a positive outlook on what Syscoin is doing. Their contributions and diligence will go a long way toward growing the ecosystem further with quality. Itâs also an ideal time for MEXCâs participation because Rollux OPv1 is getting closer to mainnet and launchpad solutions are nearing completion as well.
After Rollux OPv1 reaches Syscoinâs mainnet, OPv2 and ZK rollups advancements will follow.
Syscoin is a decentralized and open-source project founded in 2014 whose NEVM blockchain combines the best of Bitcoin and Ethereum in a single coordinated modular platform.
Syscoin is ushering in the next step in the evolution of blockchain technology, providing Bitcoinâs proven security and Ethereumâs Turing-complete programmability elevated to true scalability via Optimistic, ZK-Rollups, Cross-chain ZK-Rollups and other Layer 2 technologies.
