The Pacaya Hardfork, a crucial step toward based preconfirmations, is coming to the Taiko Alethia mainnet next week. This marks one of the most important milestones for Taiko to date. Let’s take a closer look at what’s about to happen.What’s Changing?The Taiko Alethia protocol in it’s current iteration (Ontake fork) utilizes the based contestable rollup design. The design has been battle-tested and proven to be secure and cheaper to use than L1 over almost 1M blocks and 653M transactions! How...

Just over a year ago in June, we launched Trailblazers, a program that rewards Taiko mainnet participants every three months. Thanks to the incredible interest and passion from our community, it quickly became one of the most successful community initiatives to date. Now, we are ready to take Trailblazers even further, building around a focused community that believes in the based future being shaped by Taiko.

Based rollups prioritize decentralization above all else. This is a deliberate choice made to enable scaling without compromise. However, it does come with trade-offs. The biggest trade-off is speed. Since based rollups like our own Taiko Alethia don’t use a centralized sequencer like traditional rollups, transactions can take longer to finalize. Based Preconfirmations are here to change that in a big way. Based Preconfirmations will significantly improve the user experience on Taiko by makin...

On May 27, 2024, Taiko officially launched its mainnet - an Ethereum-equivalent ZK rollup pioneering a new model called the "based rollup." Since then, Taiko has grown into one of the most technically advanced and community-driven Layer 2 ecosystems. In this special anniversary post, we take a detailed look at the technology, the ecosystem, the numbers, and the people who’ve made it all possible.Year One Highlights:Mainnet Launch with Vitalik: Deployed Taiko on Ethereum mainnet (May 27, 2024)...
