Nubit starts again, understanding the growth logic of Web2&Web3 integration behind "Minichain"

Recall, what are the Web3 projects that have really broken out of the circle in recent years?

Whether it is StepN, which swept Web2&Web3 in the last bull and bear market, or Notcoin, which has emerged in this cycle, or USDT, which is considered the most successful crypto financial product in the world, the core passwords that can break out of the circle are undoubtedly to make Web3 no longer a carnival for a few people, and greatly broaden and deepen the user base of the crypto economy.

That's right, increment is the core primitive of Web3. The concept of running to make money is easy to understand, and the design of earning gold coins on Telegram also allows hundreds of millions of users to participate with a low threshold. To put it bluntly, the phenomenal applications that can really run out are often the ones that just grasp the link between the traditional Internet of Web2 and the crypto economy of Web3.

Therefore, infrastructure solutions such as chain abstraction and account abstraction have expanded rapidly, aiming to provide project parties with handy tools to bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3 and achieve two-way integration at low cost. However, for developers of Telegram Mini App and WeChat Mini Program, they are still facing many challenges such as technical complexity, user experience consistency and architectural differences.

This is also the starting point of Nubit's package of technical solutions - using the first Minichain as a starting point, directly integrating the development tools and infrastructure of the whole process, which can not only help Web3 project parties to expand DApp to social platforms such as Telegram/ in the form of Mini APP in one stop, but also bridge the existing social platform users of hundreds of millions to incremental users of Web3, completely opening up the imagination space for the integration and intercommunication of Web2 and Web3.

Why do we need to break the barriers between Web2 and Web3?

With the development of the digital economy, the Internet is ushering in a new round of changes. Web2 has dominated the development of the Internet in the past two decades with its mature technical architecture and broad user base, while the rise of decentralized technology is driving a revolution in the open economic system.

Thanks to the outbreak of the Telegram Mini App ecosystem this year, more and more traditional Internet developers want to approach Web3 to find new models. At the same time, crypto projects also hope to expand to the current Internet traffic pool to achieve larger-scale user penetration.

Blockchain, with decentralization and token economy as its core, can bring new business models and economic systems to traditional Internet projects. In addition, crypto projects embed decentralized concepts and technologies into existing consumer applications, giving users more autonomy, while also achieving more transparent and fair economic distribution. It can not only improve user stickiness, but also encourage users to actively participate in the construction of the ecosystem, thereby enhancing the overall business value.

At the same time, crypto projects are also aware of the huge potential brought by the huge user base and mature market of the traditional Internet. The traditional Internet has billions of users and has formed stable user behavior patterns and consumption habits. By integrating with the platforms and channels of the traditional business model, crypto projects can better reach these user groups and expand their market influence and user base.

However, the integration of Web2 and Web3 is not smooth sailing. There are huge architectural differences between the two, and this architectural conflict has led to the complexity of technical integration between the two.

Most directly, the traditional Internet is centered on centralization, and its technical architecture, data management, and user experience are all centered around centralized servers and data storage; while the crypto field is based on decentralization and relies on blockchain technology to achieve distributed management of data storage and transactions.

In addition, consistency of user experience is also a huge challenge. Most users are accustomed to simple and intuitive operation interfaces, while the decentralized nature of Web3 often requires users to perform more operation steps, such as managing private keys, signing transactions, etc., which increases the user's learning cost and operation difficulty. How to achieve seamless user experience between Web2 and Web3 is one of the key factors affecting the success or failure of integration.

In short, high technical barriers and security risks also limit the pace of Web2 projects entering Web3. The complexity of blockchain technology, especially the development and security issues of smart contracts, has discouraged many traditional developers. At the same time, Web3 developers are also faced with the problem of how to reach hundreds of millions of Web2 users on platforms such as Telegram at low cost.

How can two-way empowerment be supported? Analysis of Nubit's technical solutions

On September 2, Nubit released the Minichain solution, which aims to help Web2 and Web3 achieve seamless integration of two-way connectivity by providing a package of technical solutions and development toolboxes. This also means that Nubit, which started from DA, began to try to upgrade Nubit from technical solution support to business model empowerment.

Minichain's package of solutions includes providing traditional developers with a key to easily enter the crypto world, and can also help Web3 projects reach billions of Web2 users on Telegram and WeChat. The core idea is to directly integrate the development tools and infrastructure of the entire process, so that developers do not need to face complex payment and security issues, but only need to focus on innovation and create excellent applications.

Starting from DA, but not limited to DA

Data is the core resource of the digital economy. How to ensure the efficient and secure circulation of data is the key to the integration of Web2 and Web3. Nubit DA provides a trustless and efficient data availability layer through a trust mechanism based on Bitcoin. Its working principle is to ensure that the transmission of data between different Minichains is fast and reliable through the strong security of the Bitcoin blockchain.

This mechanism allows Web2 projects to easily import their data into the Web3 environment without being affected by the complexity or security issues of data transmission. It not only enhances the circulation of data, but also lays a technical foundation for the deep integration of Web2 and Web3.

Compared with other Bitcoin DA projects on the market, Nubit has a long-term technical accumulation in the field of DA exploration and has a unique competitive advantage that is difficult to replicate.

First of all, Nubit provides a truly decentralized solution, which is different from some centralized DA solutions on the market that rely on smaller server clusters to maintain data availability. Its economic security is guaranteed by Bitcoin stakers. Unlike other DA solutions that rely on a single project or a smaller user base, its consensus layer is essentially different from existing Bitcoin or Ethereum DAs, supporting hundreds of thousands of stakers, ensuring the highest degree of decentralization and security.

One-stop developer toolkit

In addition, the complexity of Web3 technology, especially smart contracts and decentralized applications in blockchain development, often makes Web2 developers feel tricky. Therefore, in addition to Nubit DA, Nubit also focuses on providing an integrated Minichain construction solution, and newly packaged a series of tools including DeKit, Minichain-as-a-Service (MaaS), Universal Bridge, etc., to ensure that developers can focus on building excellent products without worrying about the underlying technical complexity.

Among them, DeKit contains a wealth of development interfaces and modules, which can help developers quickly integrate blockchain functions into Web2 applications, especially when developing applications on popular platforms such as Telegram, the convenience of DeKit is particularly prominent. For example, developers can use DeKit to quickly embed smart contracts into existing Web2 applications, giving them decentralized functions, thereby achieving a smooth transition to Web3.

For traditional Internet developers, DeKit will shield the complexity of blockchain, allowing them to seamlessly integrate decentralized functions into applications, and the concept of Minichain provides each application with a customized blockchain that fully meets specific needs, allowing developers to fully control and use it flexibly without the burden of managing a full-scale Layer1 blockchain;

For developers in the crypto field, Nubit's DeKit helps them break through the existing stock limits by creating consumer-grade Mini Apps that directly connect to Web2 ecosystems such as Telegram/WeChat, and create diversified consumer-grade Mini Apps;

In order to meet the needs of different application scenarios, Nubit also provides Minichain as a Service (MaaS), which means that developers can customize Mini Chains exclusive to their applications according to their business needs. Minichain as a Service not only reduces development and operating costs, but also improves application performance and user experience. Developers can achieve more efficient blockchain function integration by customizing Mini Chain, while also providing users with more personalized services.

User experience follows closely

User experience is not only a developer level, but also a key link in the integration of Web2 and Web3.

Nubit's wallet design focuses on simplifying the user operation process, so that it has an operation interface and user experience similar to Web2 applications. This design ensures that Web2 users will not feel unfamiliar or confused when transitioning to Web3, thereby enhancing their acceptance and participation in decentralized applications.

In the multi-chain ecosystem, communication and asset transfer between different blockchains is a huge challenge. Universal Bridge enables data and assets between different Minichains to flow seamlessly by providing efficient cross-chain communication and transaction solutions.

The core function of Universal Bridge is to ensure interoperability between different chains, enabling developers to flexibly build and expand applications in a multi-chain environment. Through Universal Bridge, Web2 and Web3 projects can better share resources and data, thereby improving the flexibility and scalability of the entire system.

In short, Nubit's core vision is to provide each user with interactive operation experiences such as wallets and payments similar to the Web2 experience, so that everyone can access Web3 products and services with low thresholds or even zero perception, enjoy consumer-level on-chain scenario use cases, and slowly form a Web2 & Web3 fusion ecosystem with billions of mass Internet users as the core.

Wide use is good

Yu Feng, co-founder of Nubit and professor of computer science at the University of California, Santa Barbara, once said in an interview that the next round of Bitcoin ecology outbreak may be the development of applications that can arouse the interest and demand of a wide range of users, such as games or other innovative technologies - these applications will not only increase transaction volume, but will be able to drive the development of the entire chain, from DA to Layer2 to specific applications, to form a mutually reinforcing ecosystem.

"Without the actual ecosystem and user participation, Nubit, as an infrastructure, will also find it difficult to develop independently. The success of the entire ecosystem depends on the participation of real users and the actual use of applications, which will be the key factors in promoting the further development of the Bitcoin ecosystem."

Therefore, as an infrastructure, Nubit's technical solutions will open up a new path for the integration of Web2 and Web3. By lowering the technical threshold, optimizing the user experience, and providing highly customized blockchain services, Nubit is bringing new business opportunities to developers and traditional Internet projects.

As mentioned above, Nubit provides developers with many development tools and interfaces, which greatly reduces the difficulty of integrating blockchain technology into Web2 applications, enabling them to transition to Web3 faster and more effectively. Nubit also pays great attention to the consistency of user experience, and ensures that Web2 users do not need to go through a complicated learning process when transitioning to Web3 by simplifying the operation process and providing an intuitive interface.

In addition, Nubit's technical support will also prompt Web2 projects to explore business model innovation based on blockchain. For example, by introducing a token economic model, Web2 applications can motivate users to participate in ecological construction and realize value sharing and transmission. In the game application scenario, Nubit's technical advantages are particularly obvious. It not only provides low-cost and high-efficiency development tools for small and medium-sized developers, but also enables them to build innovative applications and promote the progress and development of the entire industry.

Recently, the third phase of the Nubit Alpha testnet was launched. In cooperation with DuckChain, Suzume and Nubee, it brought three mini-games supported by Nubit's adaptive data availability, including multiple activities including DuckChain points tasks, Suzume mini-games and Nubee BTC prediction games.

In addition, scratch cards and lottery features and more exciting Nubit use cases will be launched soon. These games and use cases show how Nubit's underlying technology can bring what Web2 users are familiar with to Web3 and reach a wider user base for multiple Web3 projects.

Nubit, as a comprehensive set of technical solutions, is gradually becoming a key driving force for the integration of Web2 and Web3. By providing a series of innovative tools and functions, Nubit not only fills the gap in the market, but also opens up new business opportunities and innovation paths for developers. With the widespread application of Nubit's technical solutions, the integration of Web2 and Web3 will further accelerate the promotion of the crypto-integrated economy to new heights.
