ThunderCore Blockchain Partners with Huobi, MyCointainer in Node Expansion

Validated Project

ThunderCore Blockchain Partners with Huobi, MyCointainer in Node Expansion

The Top 5 blockchain ThunderCore is making an ecosystem-development push, partnering with a host of new validators as the chain rolls out its new cryptocurrency staking model. At the same time, ThunderCore is leveraging these promising developments to expand its presence in decentralized finance (DeFi), making overtures to leading protocols.

The newest ThunderCore validators include the famous virtual asset exchange Huobi and one of the earliest staking platforms in the space, MyCointainer. Users of both will now be able to stake ThunderCore’s native asset TT to earn rewards.

Unlike proof-of-work (PoW) blockchains like Bitcoin, ThunderCore is an environmentally friendly proof-of-stake (PoS) chain, which means that its consensus mechanism for validating transactions is based on incentivized crypto staking.

ThunderCore’s new PoS staking model, also known as ThunderCore 2.0, will dramatically increase both user staking and validator nodes. Such decentralization is crucial to secure PoS chains like ThunderCore, which must withstand coordinated attacks by malicious actors seeking to control two-thirds of the network, while adding more trustworthy validators also improves scalability and accelerates user growth.

Validator expansion

As a new partner, Huobi will implement and maintain a ThunderCore node, further securing the ThunderCore ecosystem. Additionally, Huobi’s tens of millions of users will have access to ThunderCore PoS staking, while TT will be available to stake on Huobi Earn.

On top of operating a node, MyCointainer will allow for deposits and withdrawals on the platform. MyCointainer users will have access to TT trading pairs against BTC, USDT, and other major cryptos and fiat pairs.

The expansion of the validator network represents a significant step forward for ThunderCore, solidifying its position as a leading blockchain.

DeFi outreach

With the new ThunderCore 2.0 PoS staking model, the popular blockchain has overhauled its tokenomics, aiming to become an even bigger DeFi player in the years to come. Having already nurtured its native DeFi ecosystem, the ThunderCore developers are now seeking to court top DeFi protocols such as Curve Finance, AAVE, SushiSwap, Stargate and many others.

The ThunderCore team has begun this effort with making approaches to the leading DeFi projects. Here’s one proposal from the developers presenting their case as to why the protocol should deploy on ThunderCore. Diversifying ThunderCore’s native DeFi ecosystem allows the team to build a brighter future with the support of the project’s multi-chain feature, decentralization, and community-driven economics.

The team offers ThunderCore’s user-retention and mass-adoption strategy (over 400K monthly active users), one-stop-shop TT Wallet, high levels of interoperability, extensive partnerships, and range of developer incentives and tools, among other points.

Corresponding proposals are in the works for the other major DeFi protocols.

Future expectations

ThunderCore will continue to welcome new validators to its PoS network. This aligns with the team’s commitment to providing a secure and decentralized platform for its users. Adding new, reputable organizations to the validator network enhances the security of the blockchain, making it a top choice for decentralized applications. Meanwhile, increased staking rewards under the new tokenomics are a tangible benefit to the community that furthers the same goals.

ThunderCore will also be encouraging more DeFi projects to open up shop. The high-performance chain offers many benefits for DeFi, including sub-second transactions, gas fees at a fraction of a cent, and massive scalability. These features make ThunderCore an ideal home for DeFi developers looking to build and grow on a reliable and secure network.

ThunderCore for developers

ThunderCore is among the most hospitable homes for developers in the Web3 industry. The company has long believed that if you attract the best developers, then the users will follow. To that end, they have made various efforts to nurture their developer community:

ThunderGene API Tool

ThunderCore’s groundbreaking API tool allows for the easy integration of Web3 features into Web2 apps. With ThunderGene, it’s possible to create non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and fungible tokens inside a Web2 app while outsourcing the burden of wallet security to the cutting-edge TT Wallet.

$100M Web3 Fund

Along with partners 886 Studios and Outliers Fund, ThunderCore maintains a $100M fund to assist those who would like to build decentralized applications on its chain.

Developer Growth Fund

In addition to the $100M Web3 Fund, ThunderCore also operates a Developer Growth Fund, which is about to undergo a major update. The fund guides projects to completion with technical, promotional, financial, and operational assistance.

  • Vitalik: Ethereum Foundation is Not the Central Manager of the ETH Ecosystem, Future Development Will Shift to 'Small and Long-term' Approach

    On May 25, Ethereum founder Vitalik shared his views on the future development direction of the Ethereum Foundation in a post on the X platform. He emphasized that this is just his personal opinion. The board does not consist solely of him, and he does not have more special powers than other board members. Aya Miyaguchi is leading most of the execution work for this transformation, while his own involvement is more focused on technical issues. The board is currently expanding, and his influence within the organization will continue to decline in the future, which, frankly, is what he hopes to see. By 2025, the Ethereum Foundation has made significant improvements in its execution capabilities. Many issues have been resolved, and the foundation continues to benefit from greater efficiency and a stronger focus on specific goals. However, as these issues were addressed, he began to care more about another concern: he often sees people saying, 'Vitalik has always talked about Ethereum needing to be decentralized, having privacy, and becoming a shelter technology, but why do the actions of the Ethereum Foundation not reflect these ideals?' Of course, there are those who hold completely different views. Some do not feel there is a crisis at all, but rather believe that the Ethereum Foundation has finally begun to take execution and business development seriously, and the next focus should be to continue along this path faster and stronger. Vitalik believes that this difference essentially reflects varying sensitivities to different types of criticism, and he is more easily hurt by criticisms regarding deviations from values. Vitalik stated that the Ethereum Foundation should not be 'the center of Ethereum,' but rather 'a node with clear responsibilities, existing alongside other nodes.' In the past, they have always said this, but many people in the ecosystem, including some within the foundation, hoped the foundation would become a true center. Now, they are taking concrete actions to ensure the foundation becomes the latter. This is particularly important because the Ethereum Foundation is essentially a resource-limited and organizationally limited entity. The foundation currently holds only about 0.16% of all ETH, which is even lower than many large ETH holders; whereas many other blockchain projects' 'central foundations' typically control 10%-50% of their tokens. The current Ethereum Foundation has decided to use its remaining resources to pursue 'long-term viability' rather than continuous expansion (which also means they will sell less ETH). The foundation will focus on those things that are crucial for Ethereum to become a censorship-resistant, control-resistant, open, private, and secure system, but that no one else would do if the foundation does not. This means they must make difficult choices. Some projects and individuals they highly respect may no longer belong to the foundation's system in the future. In fact, if they want important tasks to attract external capital, it may be necessary to keep some talented individuals, influential public figures, and those who share the mission and CROPS philosophy outside the foundation. This also means that the Ethereum Foundation will take a clearer and more principled stance on a cultural level.
