Web 3 is growing at lightning speed!
Hundreds of L1s, Thousands of L2s and soon Tens of thousands of L3s!!
While striving to make systems more scalable, decentralized and secure, we risk overlooking a crucial goal - To expand the boundaries of web3 for all users.
And with increasing fragmentation coupled with complex pre-requisites to interact on-chain, inflexible infrastructure for consumer apps, and a lack of chain unification, the barrier to entry is rising, leading to the emergence of more closed and isolated systems.
But not anymore.
Introducing Push Chain - A shared state blockchain for shared app experiences!
What is Push Chain?
Push Chain is a Proof of Stake shared state blockchain designed to support the development of hyper-scalable, consumer-centric, universal web3 applications by unifying settlement from any L1s, L2s and L3s.
Push Chain Superpowers Include:
- Any Chain Tx (Solana, Eth, EVM, or non-EVM)⛓️ :
- Enables cross-chain transactions from EVM, Solana or any nonEVM by accepting signed payloads verified by Push validator nodes.
- Sub-second finality ⚡⏱️ :
- With parallel validators and parallel attestation.
- True Scale 🚀 :
- Increases both read and write throughput as the number of nodes in the network grows.
- Fee Abstraction💰 :
- Non-push chain wallets can seamlessly pay fees through native token swaps, delegation, web3 applications, or the traditional wallet-pays-fees model.
- Wallet Abstraction 🔐 :
- Simplify blockchain access by offering social logins, phone or email authentication, and secure recovery.
- Consumer tx (unordered) and Traditional tx (ordered) 🛍️:
- Introduces 'consumer transactions' for unordered, high-speed scalability, leveraging parallel execution, and dynamic sharding.
- Universal Smart Contract 🌐 :
- Smart contracts that can read the state of EVM or non-EVM wallets of other chains in the future, enabling developers to create a seamless universal app.
- Shared App Experience 🤝 :
- App experiences shared by all users of all chains
Push Chain is purpose-built to power onchain AI, leveraging shared state, fast finality, dynamic sharding, and cross-chain compatibility. It supports scalable, versatile AI use cases and seamless consumer experiences, enabling AI agents, marketplaces and more, check examples below.
We are building Push Chain with the vision of enabling users, irrespective of what blockchain they are on to seamlessly connect with web3 applications across any blockchain.
Push Chain Roadmap: Phases 1, 2 and 3
Push Chain’s development follows a phased approach:
-
Phase-1: Focuses on creating an infrastructure tailored for consumer-centric applications — enables building true scale apps, supports transaction from any chain, vm for smarter / complex applications, consumer transaction (ordering is not important), fees abstraction - enabling fees from a chain of user choice or from web3 app, wallet abstraction - social login and login from any other chain.
-
Phase-2: Establishes seamless interoperability between blockchains, enabling instant cross-chain transactions and the transfer of value and smart contract calls. This phase introduces a solver network designed to enhance user experience by abstracting on-chain complexities by facilitating hyper-scalable and universal applications
-
Phase-3: Introduces Universal smart contract and shared state — enabling seamless cross-blockchain interactions and making other chain’s state accessible on Push Chain and unlocking the era of universal apps.
Push Chain gives you a Billion Reasons to Build!
Push Chain is your go-to chain for building universal mixed apps!
Here’s a brief glimpse of the future of web3 and the countless innovations that you can make happen because of Push Chain.
→Universal AI Apps:
Build on-chain Ai agents and platforms that are not bound to any single-chain and operate across chains autonomously using Push Chain’s shared state and Universal Smart Contract capabilies.
Examples include:
→ Unified Data Layers for AI Agents:
- Ai agents often need to access, analyze, and react to a large variety of onchain and offchain data.
- Using Push Chain's unified user identity (Push ID), AI agents can retrieve a user's aggregated state from multiple chains—assets, past activities, communication history, and more.
→ Chain Agnostic Autonomous Actions:
- Using interoperability and knowledge of multiple user wallets across chains, an AI agent could rebalance a user's DeFi positions on Ethereum, list NFTs on Polygon, and communicate status updates to the user via a messaging app on another chain, all through one unified settlement layer.
→ Universal AI Launchpads 🚀
- One unified platform to launch agents across any chain
- Universal payment acceptance (any token from any chain)
- Can be scaled to support thousands of concurrent agent operations
Universal Social Apps
Push Chain’s scalability as well as fee and wallet abstraction make it ideal for building decentralized social platforms.
- Unifies all on-chain users (quite literally) spread across all chains into one shared layer.
- Leverage Push Chain’s sub second finality to build next-generation social apps such as social investing platforms (e.g., GoFundMe or grants), decentralized alternatives to Reddit, Telegram, or TikTok, and other social networks.
- Enable Core social app features - replies, likes, and user connections using unordered transactions (consumer transactions).
- Using PushID - A Polygon wallet can communicate and interact with a Solana Wallet, all under one shared state!
- Enable Login with any wallet or Web2 credentials (session keys)
- Social Rewards Apps: Create apps where users earn rewards for engagement, such as likes, shares, or creating valuable content.
Universal Prediction Markets ⚖️
Prediction markets like Polymarket (native to Polygon only)- have already achieved mainstream PMF. Take it a step further and build cross-chain Prediction markets where:
- Markets aggregate liquidity from all chains simultaneously
- Users participate from any wallet (ETH, SOL, etc.) without manually bridging!
- Fee abstraction allows platforms to cover gas costs for users.
Universal Gaming
Push Chain lets gaming and degen apps break free from single-chain silos.
- Build cross chain games with Push Chain to bring players from different chains together for unified tournaments or gaming sessions.
- Examples include poker platforms, slot games, sports betting, fantasy sports, shared lottery systems like PoolTogether, trading card platforms, and gacha games.
Universal DeFi :
While Push Chain isn’t solely focused on DeFi, it supports financial applications with universal capabilities:
- Unified DEXes: Enable smooth exchanges and transfers across chains. tokens and stablecoins from any chain can be utilized to create a seamless decentralized exchange (DEX)
- Unified Lending - Borrow Apps. Users from any chain can lend and borrow, addressing fragmented liquidity and enabling applications that act as universal liquidity hubs—taking liquidity from one chain and providing it to another.
- Global Payment Systems: Build payment gateways where users can transact with minimal fees using tokens from any blockchain
Cross-Chain Analytics and Portfolio Management
Leveraging Push Chain’s interoperability and shared state build powerful analytics and management tools:
- Web3 Portfolios. By mapping wallets through Push ID and leveraging seamless interoperability, web3 portfolios can track balances, NFT collections, and DeFi positions and assets across multiple chains, providing users with a unified view of their holdings.
- Analytics and Recommendations: Build analytics platforms that provide insights into user’s on-chain user behaviour, enabling personalized recommendations or investment advice.
- Cross-Chain Governance Dashboards: Aggregate DAO governance activities across chains, providing users with a unified voting and proposal management system.
- Universal Web3 Analytics and Recommendation. Enable analytics to track user activity and capabilities, unlocking recommendation engines, AI based decision engines, targeted promotions, and other innovative features
Utility and Productivity Applications:
Build utility applications with Push Chain that simplify and enhance everyday tasks:
- Decentralized Email and Messaging: Build secure, blockchain-based email services where users communicate using their wallet addresses or Push IDs.
- Web3 Blogging and Content Platforms: Create decentralized blogging platforms where users can publish, share, and monetize content without relying on centralized hosts.
- Data Storage and Retrieval: Build applications for storing user settings, metadata, or application states, enabling decentralized profiles and preferences.
- Utility Apps with Universal Reach. These applications thrive on combining user bases from all blockchains. Examples include email services, notifications and chat platforms, blogging tools, decentralized wikis, and internet archives. These apps benefit from a unified web3 user base, making Push Chain the perfect environment for their growth.
Education and Training Platforms
Push Chain supports decentralized education platforms that enhance learning experiences.
