⛓️ What's Hot in Superchain?
Automata Joins The Superchain Ecosystem
Automata Network has joined the Superchain ecosystem. Their goal is to create a machine attestation layer, using Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) to secure hardware and build decentralized Web3 systems. Automata plans to leverage their native token, ATA, as the default gas token on their OP Stack Chain, and use EigenDA as the data availability layer. The machine attestation layer aims to improve trust in hardware used for blockchain by allowing machines to prove their integrity on-chain, a process they call Proof of Machinehood. They also plan to introduce the Automata Gasdrop, allowing verified machines to perform attestations without paying gas fees. This initiative is designed to simplify interactions and support developers in building secure applications. Read more about Automata here.
Arena-Z Joins the Superchain Ecosystem
Arena-Z has officially joined the Superchain ecosystem, launching a gaming platform and blockchain tailored specifically for Web3 gaming. As part of its integration, Arena-Z is migrating the popular game League of Kingdoms onto its AZ Chain, bringing millions of users and NFT transactions to the platform. This transition broadens the scope of digital assets available to gamers and integrates LoK’s strong foundation into the new Web3 gaming platform. Additionally, Arena-Z is set to support the growth of Web3 gaming studios by offering marketing support, development tools, and grants. The platform also features technical innovations such as a Plug & Play Web 2.5 SDK and a marketplace SDK, which simplifies the integration of custom NFT markets for developers.

Those who reach over 3,000 EB will be able to activate their Safe Growth SBT (Soulbound Token) on the Mint event page. Upon activation, users will randomly receive a 10%-20% EB accelerator, boosting their accumulated points during this phase. Participants who engage in the campaign will receive additional rewards based on their total EB and activity level. Read about all things Safe Growth here.
Worldcoin Continuous Grants
Worldcoin has introduced a new continuous grants program to foster ongoing innovation within its community. Previously, the grants program operated in waves, which limited the timing of submissions and created delays for those eager to bring their ideas to life. With this new continuous structure, builders can submit proposals at any time, allowing for more flexibility and faster feedback from the Worldcoin Foundation. The shift to a rolling system ensures quicker responses and dynamic support for projects. It also aligns with Worldcoin’s commitment to nurturing creativity and progress within the ecosystem. The updated Request for Proposals (RFP) list reflects the current needs of the Worldcoin Tech Tree and introduces new focus areas such as World ID applications, digital identity solutions, governance innovations, and improved developer tools.
