Paradex Takes the Wheel: How a Karnot-Run App-Chain Supercharges the SuperDEX
Paradex is moving its sequencer to a Karnot-run open-source stack, a shift built on two years of shipping the SuperDEX. This custom infrastructure stack lets Paradex deliver a bespoke trading UX not possible on today’s L1s or L2s, all while retaining Ethereum security. This piece unpacks why the move matters, how it works under the hood, and what it unlocks next. https://x.com/tradeparadex/status/1938570326990008443TL;DRParadex is partnering with Karnot to run its own Madara sequencer on an e...

The Evolution of Blockchain State Architectures
Special thanks to the Kasar Labs team for discussion and review. Blockchains represent a significant advancement in decentralised, permissionless databases, built to be trustless and scalable. Ethereum, as a prime example is a global database operating with over six thousand nodes that constantly read and write to the blockchain. A distributed system of such proportions demands a state architecture that meets three key criteria: it must be immutably verifiable, enable lightning-fast lookups, ...
