.@pwrlabs isn't trying to fit into Web3. 🔹 It’s building the bridge between Web2 and Web3 with a fresh stack, from modular infra to decentralized software applications. Let’s break down why it actually matters 🧵
PWR Chain off-chain apps (VIDAs) are built in any language and use PWR as an immutable ledger for user actions (e.g. transactions), 🔹 They read transactions from the base layer (with zero gas fees), process data locally with custom logic, and anyone can verify the results 🔸VIDAs can be built in any coding language and have customized logic 🔹VIDAs set their own rules/fees for flexibility
How does a VIDA Work? @pwrlabs flips the execution stack: 🔹Users send transactions directly to PWR Chain (no sequencers) 🔸VIDAs read and execute off-chain 🔹Full replayability via transparent ledger. Faster UX, stronger guarantees. On-chain when it matters.
PWR Chain isn’t bound to a single VM or language. 🔹 The base layer ensures security, finality, and immutable record of transactions 🔸Any VM: EVM, SVM, MoveVM, WASM! 🔹Apps can be built in whatever language (for example, Rust, C++, Java) fits the use case. 🔸Even non-blockchain logic, such as supply chain, can run through VIDAs. All powered by a modular Layer 0 designed for scale.
How PWR Chain routes value across ecosystems: 🔹 VIDAs (apps) plug into external networks via Conduit Nodes 🔸 Seamless access to Ethereum, IBC, and Web2. 🔹 PWRChain provides speed, security, and finality as the base trust layer Everything else stays modular by design.
PWR Chain routes custom transactions across VMs without friction. 🔹 Wrapper nodes package native txns (e.g., Metamask) 🔸 PWR Base Layer processes and relays 🔹 On the other side, txns get unwrapped and executed (e.g., on EVM) Any VM. Any language. Same flow.
Web3’s biggest bottleneck? Onboarding builders, especially from Web2. 🔹 PWR Chain targets the massive pool of ~29 million Web2 developers rather than limiting itself to the tiny ~30K Web3 developer community, removing traditional blockchain development barriers to tap into a market that's 1,000x larger. 🔸 Supports mainstream languages like Python, C++, Rust, GoLang etc.
Why devs actually care about PWR Chain: 🔹 2-layer design: secure base layer + modular app-chains (VIDAs) 🔸 Build VIDAs in any language you already know 🔹 Architect without gas, storage, or compute limits 🔸 Up to 300K TPS and $0.00001 fees = complexity without compromise 🔹 Run a full node for less than Netflix. Not just easier to build, but easier to scale what you build.
Who’s backing @pwrlabs? Led by @drapervc, with a deep bench of crypto-native VCs behind them: 🔹 @Magnus_Fund 🔸 @alphabit_fund 🔹 @redbeardvc and more. It’s not just tech that’s strong, but also the conviction behind it.
