Kadena, the network developed by JP Morgan’s in-house blockchainblockchain lab, has doubled in size and is now capable of 480,000 transactions per second, according to an announcement today from its team. EthereumEthereum, by comparison, supports about 14 transactions per second in its current iteration and the network, by far the most popular for decentralized applications (dappdapp), is struggling to support the traffic.
The Kadena blockchain, which has since spun out of JP Morgan to become its own entity, relies on the same proof-of-workproof-of-work mechanism as Ethereum, where computers duke it out to mine blocks using their processing power. But Kadena said that it has solved the scaling issue that prevents proof-of-work blockchains like Ethereum and BitcoinBitcoin from supporting limitless traffic.
The network has achieved its high transaction speed by doubling the number of “braided chains” on its network to 20. This refers to the interconnectedness of the Kadena network. The team claims that it could one day reach 1,000 chains, or “an ever-increasing number of chains.”
“Launching Kadena, and now expanding to 20 chains, proves that we can scale a layer-1 blockchain to the point where digital assets can go mainstream,” said Kadena Co-Founder and CEO Will Martino, in a statement.
Project Ubin, a blockchain-based multi-currency payments network created by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), JP Morgan, and state-investor Temasek, is ready for a commercial roll-out following the successful implementation of its prototype. A Reuters report from July 13 confirmed the success of the prototype multi-currency blockchain, dubbed. In a joint press release, the MAS and Temasek said: “An international settlement network, modeled after this payments network prototype, could e...
Kadena also claims to be “the fastest blockchain platform in the world," which is a claim it shares with many other blockchain networks.
Kadena joins dozens of blockchain networks, among them Algorand, R3’s Corda, Polkadot and Blockstack, that promise high throughput and low transaction fees. One blockchain network, Tectum, claims it can process more than 1 million transactions per second.
Their common rival is Ethereum, whose sluggish yet popular network will increase in speed upon the launch of Ethereum 2.0, the long-anticipated update to the Ethereum network, expected for release later this year or in early 2021.
Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, said last month that Ethereum 2.0 would support 2,000-3,000 transactions per second at launch, then 100,000 about a year later.
ETH2 scaling for data will be available *before* ETH2 scaling for general computation. This implies that rollups will be the dominant scaling paradigm for at least a couple of years: first ~2-3k TPS with eth1 as data layer, then ~100k TPS with eth2 (phase 1). Adjust accordingly.

The winner of the pack will attract retail and institutional applications, as well as decentralized finance, the booming industry with over $6 billion worth of crypto locked into it—the lion’s share on Ethereum.
Kadena also announced that it has made Kadena Kuro, a private version of the Kadena blockchain, free of charge and open source.
A team of researchers from JP Morgan Chase, Quantinuum, and others has shown that quantum computers can produce “certifiably random” numbers, potentially improving how we secure everything from banking to voting systems. It turns out that the random numbers some computer programs use aren’t so random. In cryptography—the tech underlying two-factor authentication and passkeys for instance—random numbers are generated to secure systems from hackers. But traditional computers typically use algorith...
Blockchain has a vital part to play in the transition to renewable energy, according to decentralized trading platform D.Energy. Speaking on Rug Radio’s FOMO Hour, the firm’s CEO Shafi Rafi said that the firm’s guiding principle is “making clean energy the new currency of the digital world.” D.Energy’s layer-1 blockchain ecosystem is powered by a unique “Proof of Energy” consensus mechanism, in which validators purchase and stake tokenized renewable energy certificates (RECs), each of which rep...
A quantum computing breakthrough could one day undermine the cryptography that secures the Bitcoin blockchain and its nearly $1.7 trillion worth of assets. Now, a BTC bounty is putting that threat to the test. On Wednesday, quantum computing research group Project 11 announced a prize of 1 BTC—currently worth nearly $85,000—for the first team to break a simplified version of Bitcoin’s elliptic curve cryptography, or ECC, using a quantum computer. We just launched the Q-Day Prize. 1 BTC to the...
