SKALE TECH

Metaport has landed!

SKALE Metaport is a super fast, simple way for users to use the chain-to-chain bridging capabilities of the SKALE Network. SKALE has long understood that mass adoption requires the ability to marry the friendly UX of Web2 with the power of blockchain and decentralization. Dapp users now have a fast and simple way to move tokens of all sorts (ERC20, 721, and 1155) between SKALE Chains and between the Ethereum mainnet. This is all done in a simple interface that allows users to move their tokens and NFTs between chains in a few easy steps.

Thousands of developers and top minds attended ETHSF, Ethereum Foundation’s biggest ETH Dev gathering in the world.  It’s a place where creativity reigns as developers think about how Ethereum will change the face of money, finance, the web, ownership, how the software works, and even the distribution of societal power. SKALE was proud to be a sponsor, and the core team enjoyed chatting and connecting with the broader Ethereum community! SKALE gave away 20,000 in SKL prizes to 22 of the 28 projects submitted.

In addition, there were some fantastic presentations from folks like SKALE Co-Founder and CEO Jack O'Holleran, who gave a keynote address, Head of Solutions Engineering John Frost, and Software Engineer Sawyer Cutler.
