✧ What is Altius? ✧
TL;DR: Altius ≠ just another chain.We’re rethinking execution from the ground up.
Altius doesn’t build another chain. It builds better execution.
→ Imagine your chain is a car.
→ Altius is the rocket engine beneath it.
→ Same vehicle. ∞ the performance.
How it works:
• Plug-and-play with ANY chain
• Parallelism by default
• VM-agnostic
• Security stays intact

TPS/BPS vs GPS
( •_•) (•_• )
( ง )ง ୧( ୧ )
/︶\ /︶\
TPS (transactions per second) – old-school thinking
BPS (blocks per second) – sounds better, but still not it
GPS (gas per second) – now we’re talking!
How do you judge how fast a blockchain really is? TPS? BPS? Not so fast (pun intended)!
TPS (Transactions Per Second) is old-school. Transactions vary in complexity. Measuring performance this way is like judging a race car by the number of laps completed, without considering lap times or track difficulty.

Congratulations to our partners at @archetypevc on successfully raising $100M for their third fund.
We’re grateful for your continued support and collaboration, and we look forward to achieving great things together!
World-changing products come not from established institutions, but from visionary founders and fast-moving startups looking to challenge the status quo.
We’re beyond excited to announce Archetype III today, a $100M fund dedicated to accelerating a founder-led future.
At Archetype, we’ve never been more excited about the future of crypto:
+ technical innovations in blockchain performance have enabled onchain applications to become sleek mobile-first experiences
+ blockchain throughput and capabilities are finally reaching parity with web2
+ stablecoins are creating a $250B (and counting) global payments network
+ onchain social networks are emerging as a new way for people to connect while owning and leveraging their own data
+ and crypto is credibly proving it can contribute to foundational innovation in AI while unlocking a new generation of enterprise and consumer use cases
With this $100M of fresh capital, we’re continuing to foster relationships with maniacal founders, operate as their most dedicated advocates, and expand on the deep network and community we’ve built with Funds I and II.
We’ve already begun deploying capital from our third fund into several startups still in stealth. These will join a portfolio that includes @privy_io, @monad, @Hut8Corp, @farcaster_xyz, @RemixGG_, @ritualnet, @RelayProtocol, and other category-leading companies.
Archetype has always been a very high-touch partner to the entrepreneurs we back, putting our relationships and commitment to collaboration front and center. We bring early conviction and perspective to teams of risk takers working to bend the future to their will. Where most funds bring safety and scale, Archetype offers edge and inevitability.
Massive thanks to our investors for placing your trust in us, and to all of the founders who have allowed us to build alongside you. We're honored to play a part in crypto's future and continue accelerating the programmable future with you all.

The first generation of blockchains accomplished something extraordinary.
But what’s the bottleneck that must be solved for them to survive the next decade ↓
Modular architecture has already reshaped crypto. L2s and DA layers proved that breaking apart the stack cuts costs and accelerates adoption. The next challenge is execution, which remains the hardest and most expensive layer to upgrade.

You spend 18 months building infra.

Altius is the GPU of Web3
CPUs are general-purpose. GPUs unlock parallelism.
Altius brings the same leap to blockchains — executing transactions in parallel, across any VM.
Modular chains need compute muscle.
Altius is the acceleration layer.

Why infrastructure is at the heart of it all ↓
The Web3 landscape has shifted beyond retail hype cycles.

More Chains ≠ More Performance
Building more L2s doesn’t solve core execution issues.

Have You Heard of The Web3 UX Trap?
Everyone talks about UX in crypto.
But you can’t fix UX until you fix execution latency.
Web2 UX = instant
Web3 UX = wait, retry, gas spike

🕔 In this episode:
– Anit walks us through 20+ years of engineering evolution. What coding looked like in the early 2000s vs. today
– How the shift from monolithic architectures to microservices mirrors Web2 → Web3
– Why blockchain is about optimizing trustless systems, not rebuilding the internet
