Who uses @IBCProtocol? #IBC isn't just about bridging different chains. It is a general-purpose message-passing protocol, meaning any form of data can be communicated over IBC, creating new and innovative use cases ⬇️ - @cosmoshub uses IBC to provide Interchain Security (ICS) through its cross-chain validation (CCV) feature. CCV is an essential component enabling Cosmos Hub to provide economic security to consumer chains helping bootstrap their economies. - @StargazeZone simplifies NFT creation and trading across different blockchain networks using IBC. The CW-ICS721 module built by @arkprotocol enables seamless NFT transfers over IBC, making it easier to trade and manage digital assets across various blockchains. -@Picasso_Network developed a custom solution to integrate @solana with IBC, enabling a scalable connection between Solana and the IBC network. The AVS solution provides state proofs and necessary functionalities without requiring changes to the Solana blockchain itself. - @Skip_Protocol creates tooling for developers to build high-quality, accessible, and powerful blockchain applications. The Skip Go API helps link appchains together over IBC, creating unified cross-chain user experiences. - @MapOfZones provides a comprehensive, real-time overview of blockchain transactions and connectivity between IBC chains and zones. The Map of Zones Explorer offers key metrics and insights, such as IBC volume in/out, total IBC transfers & daily active users. - @stride_zone liquid staking protocol uses Interchain Accounts (ICA) to perform actions remotely, including staking & unstaking user funds, reinvesting staking rewards & transferring funds. Stride has enabled $140 million worth of liquid staked value, with over 116k users. - @osmosis introduced IBC Rate Limits to improve cross-chain security, preventing large movements of funds in a short time and limiting the amount hackers could extract from a protocol in the event of a security breach. -@AbstractSDK makes IBC more accessible with tooling for developers to create cross-chain applications. Its Interchain Launcher helps users onboard developers easily and access all the different chains and apps within the IBC and EVM ecosystems from one Abstract account.

3/ 11 AM GMT, @IBCProtocol Software Engineer @GjermundGaraba will teach participants how to think about IBC to innovate cool hackathon ideas to study and build from. Get going quickly with IBC knowledge! Register for the event: lu.ma/t57knia9

1/ IBC's design principles are inspired by the TCP/IP specification that underlies the internet. This mirrors the standard for seamless communication between computers, defining a universal framework for blockchains to communicate.

1/ Unveiling the #IBC rebrand! Realigning the Inter-Blockchain Communication Protocol to its core mission: ‘’Provide a universal framework for blockchains to communicate, laying the foundation for developers to build without boundaries.’’
