While ETH transitions to a new PoS consensus, miners can also move to a new layer that doesn’t require any consensus. Proof of Stake is Coming Very Soon to Ethereum Ethereum miners will soon have to deal with the end of an era when Ethereum moves from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS). …

Dev Team Continues to Pare Down the Layer-1 Business Logic The TEA Project’s dev team has been working hard these past few months to make our layer-1 as “thin” as possible. This has meant that the main focus of development lately has been moving core business logic from layer-1 to layer-2. There’s a very practical reason why we’re doing this…

To further their aim of becoming the full-speed infrastructure provider for emerging Web3 dApps, the TEA Project has just raised $1.3 million in its latest funding round to finally bring full-speed decentralized computing to the blockchain. Draper Dragon led the latest round which also included JDI Global and builds on…

There’s an old saying that if something is free, then you’re the product. Web 2.0 apps have been able to offer free versions of their services by selling their users’ data. It’s a lucrative model for Web 2.0 apps that has many unfortunate privacy and data security implications. This might…

A major motivation for why we developed the TEA Project is that there’s so far no strong development framework for Web3 dApps. In fact, the lack of a development framework is why we see so few Web3 dApps so far. Hear what Kevin has to say about the importance of…

In a recent TEA Talk, founder Kevin Zhang talks about the meaning of the term “serverless” as it relates to our infrastructure. Amazon has their own version of serverless (called Lambda), but in TEA Project, the meaning is different. The number of actual hosting nodes for any particular TApp will…

A recent article, The internet is on the verge of the next fundamental change, raises some critical issues on what the next generation of the internet will look like. In this post, we look at a few of the points the author has raised and explain how the TEA Project…

When we tell people that the TEA Project has two different layers, they usually assume that we have a roll-up feature to connect the two. A roll-up is typical in chains like Ethereum, where a faster layer-2 with cheaper transactions will send transactions back to the layer-1. While that makes…
