KYVE’s highly anticipated mainnet launch has arrived! Starting out as an Arweave smart contract, KYVE quickly grew into launching its own Layer 1 chain built with the Cosmos SDK, enabling the project to transform into an entire network built around solving data roadblocks for today’s developers.
After two years of intense development, KYVE mainnet officially went live at 14:03:14 UTC on March 14th, enabling the chain layer and a strong network to open the doors for easy access to truly trustless data via KYVE. With this, developers, data engineers, node runners, and more are that much closer to an easy, reliable solution for sourcing trustless data.
“We’re thrilled to see KYVE officially launch mainnet, bringing forward yet another innovative solution, built on Cosmos SDK, for enhancing today’s developer experience. With KYVE, free and easy access to trustless data is now possible.” Chris Zhong, Technical Director, Interchain Foundation.
