Introducing the Kava Network: A Revolutionary Blockchain Platform

The Kava Network is a groundbreaking Layer-1 blockchain that merges the Cosmos SDK’s speed and scalability with Ethereum’s developer support. Powered by its innovative co-chain architecture, the Kava Network offers developers the opportunity to create solutions for advanced blockchain technologies and Web3. To enable its decentralization and security, the network relies on KAVA, its native governance and staking token.

Co-Chain Architecture: The Backbone of Kava Network

Kava Network’s co-chain architecture is its standout feature. It allows developers to build and launch their projects using either the EVM or Cosmos SDK execution environments with effortless interoperability between the two. Once the Kava 10 upgrade is complete and the Kava Network mainnet is launched, the system is expected to function as shown in the following diagram.

Kava Network: A Unique Ecosystem

The Kava Network’s co-chains operate similarly to the two hemispheres of a brain. The Cosmos Co-Chain is designed with Cosmos ecosystem developers in mind, whereas the Ethereum Co-Chain is tailored to Ethereum ecosystem developers. The Translator Module bridges the gap between these two distinct execution environments, enabling them to work together seamlessly at scale.

The Kava Network’s advanced and developer-optimized Layer-1 architecture amalgamates two of the industry’s most utilized execution environments – Ethereum and Cosmos.

Ethereum Co-Chain is a platform that enables Solidity developers and their decentralized applications (dApps) to leverage the Kava Network’s scalability and security while remaining EVM-compatible.

The Cosmos co-chain is a secure and scalable blockchain built on the Cosmos SDK. It also enables Kava to interconnect with over 35 chains worth over $60B in the Cosmos ecosystem through the IBC protocol.

The Data API provides the ability to access blocks, transactions, and balances of any blockchain in a standard format. The Rosetta APIs make a set of explicit design choices to enable simpler, faster, and more reliable blockchain integrations. We highly recommend reading about the design principles to familiarize yourself with these choices prior to building with Rosetta.

Transaction facilitation via the Rosetta API is made up of two core components, the Data API and the Construction API. Together, these APIs allow for anyone to read and write to blockchains in a standard format over a standard communication protocol. You can find the specifications for these APIs in the rosetta-specifications repository and the Full Reference document on this website.

The Kava Network is the first Layer-1 blockchain to combine the speed and scalability of the Cosmos SDK with the developer support of Ethereum. The Kava Network will empower developers to build for Web3 and next-gen blockchain technologies through its unique co-chain architecture. KAVA is the native governance and staking token of the Kava Network, enabling its decentralization and security.

What the Kava Network enables

1. Seamless interoperability
   The Ethereum and Cosmos Co-Chains interoperate seamlessly with each other, empowering developers to build in whichever environment they want without sacrificing access to the users and assets of the other.
2. Optimized scalability
   The Kava Network’s unique architecture enables the free flow of users, assets, and projects between Kava and the industry’s most relevant ecosystems at scale, all powered by the lightning-fast Tendermint Core consensus engine.
3. Rapid ecosystem growth
   Innovative and transparent on-chain incentive programs ensure that the best builders in the Ethereum and cosmos ecosystems are properly getting rewards for driving growth for the Kava Network.

The KAVA token is integral to the security, governance, and mechanical functions of the platform. There are three main use cases for the KAVA token. KAVA is use for proposals and voting on critical parameters of the Kava Network.

This includes but does not limit to the types of supported assets and Dapps, their debt limits, and acceptable assets to use as debt collateral, collateral ratio, fees, and the savings rate for various financial instruments introduced to the network. The KAVA token is also used to vote on proposals that would affect the Kava Network SAFU Fund and treasury allocation, such as reward payouts for incentives programs.

This integration of Witnet with Kava will bring its entire suit of decentralized oracle services to the Kava network.

Witnet is a decentralized oracle protocol that focuses on providing reliable data to “autonomous” smart contracts — those that require a high degree of tamper resistance and should not leave space for manipulation. Witnet can power most DeFi primitives like price feeds, stablecoins, synthetics, etc., as well as act as a reliable source of randomness for creating uniqueness in NFTs.

Partnership HighLights

To begin with, Kava has developed an essential network within our cryptocurrency ecosystem. They have designed their network to be EVM compatible AND Cosmos SDK **compatible. These execution environments are essential for builders looking to create smart contracts, and the Kava network can scale because of the byzantine fault tolerance consensus mechanism called “Tendermint”

Developers within the Kava ecosystem need access to decentralized and immutable data in order to continue making the important products they’ve been working on. And they’re getting it from Witnet as the deeply distributed network of nodes fulfilling Request-Attest-Deliver tasks have been providing this concretely for years.

Indeed, Kava developers already have access to the suit of offerings that Witnet’s network can provide, like public price feeds, randomness, and HTTPs requests.

This partnership is lucrative to both the communities of Kava and Witnet. Now these communities can integrate, and those building on Witnet have seamless access to Kava’s lightning-fast network, and those working on Kava have access to the trustless and decentralized oracle for all their needs. Hence, both teams are working tirelessly on this integration, and are dedicated to its current and future success.

The partnership with Kava further legitimizes the Witnet network and proves the need for a decentralized oracle service when building smart contracts and decentralized applications that have real-world implications.

Witnet is poised to grow parallel to Kava, and continue providing needed services to a slew of developers looking to help strengthen decentralized finance and other blockchain based applications.

About Witnet

The Witnet protocol enables smart contracts to realize their true potential by giving them access to all sorts of valuable data sets, and by attesting and delivering that information securely thanks to its strong crypto economic guarantees.

The Kava Network is a lightning-fast Layer-1 blockchain. It features a unique co-chain architecture that combines the speed and interoperability of the Cosmos SDK. With the flexibility and developer support of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), all powered by the ultra-fast Tendermint consensus engine.

Furthermore, Kava chose to build using the Cosmos SDK because it was clear that the Ethereum architecture was not going to support a decentralized future at scale. The Cosmos SDK enabled much better scalability and unlocked access to a growing ecosystem of blockchains and applications.

Moreover, Kava continues to evolve into a more open, scalable, and optimized Layer-1 blockchain for Web3 developers to build on. As a result, by optimizing to support two of the biggest decentralized ecosystems, Cosmos and Ethereum, the Kava Network is preparing for huge growth in the multi-chain future ahead.

WHY THIS INTEGRATION IS IMPORTANT?

Initially, Celer’s bridging support will include USDC, USDT, WETH, DAI, as well as WBTC, and will extend to NFT bridging and generic message passing with the Celer Inter-chain Messaging Framework in the future, thus enabling a more secure and flexible approach to facilitate interoperability between the Kava Network, and the broader blockchain space.
