Since the advent of Optimistic Rollups (ORUs) and Zk-Rollups (ZRUs), the paradigm has changed.Computation is run off-chain by high-end machines (the provers) while posting a fraud proof (on ORUs) or a validity proof (on ZRUs) on a settlement chain, which can prove the computation integrity, or in other words, that the computation has been executed...

Blockchains charge a monetary fee to the users proportional to the computational burden the nodes must verify. Thus, on this monolithic stack, the computation cost is quite high. Developers have been forced to write their code around such constraints, not being able to express the true potential of on-chain applications.

So let’s dig into utility. We’re going to cover:

The gaming industry is slowly waking up to blockchain technology. It will dramatically change the gaming landscape to the benefit of gamers.

And if nearly the entire audience who is playing the game is only there to make money, as soon as the earning possibilities go away so too does the audience, and then the game rapidly falls apart.

SourceCred (in the most basic sense) is a technology that makes the labor of individuals more visible and rewardable as they work together in a project or community. The goal of SourceCred is to use this technology to make rewarding labor as nuanced as human contribution often is. We hope to be one piece in the puzzle of a healthier future where... See more
