Excited to share that @Theta_Network’s joint research with Prof. Xiao @ZhenXiaoCornell’s team is being presented this week at IEEE/IFIP DSN 2026 in Charlotte, USA! 🎉 📄 ShuttleCross: An Efficient Cross-Chain Smart Contract Invocation Framework Paper: zhenxiao.com/papers/ShuttleC… DSN (IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks) is one of the premier conferences in distributed systems, reliability, and networked computing, bringing together cutting-edge research on building secure, scalable, and dependable distributed infrastructure. Our paper presents ShuttleCross, a novel framework for efficient cross-chain smart contract invocation that enables fast and reliable interoperability across heterogeneous blockchain networks while guaranteeing atomicity and serializability. As blockchain ecosystems continue to diversify, applications increasingly need to coordinate smart contracts across multiple independent chains. Existing cross-chain protocols often suffer from high latency, excessive transaction aborts, and limited concurrency. ShuttleCross addresses these challenges through several key innovations: -- Hybrid Concurrency Control (HCC): Dynamically combines optimistic concurrency control (OCC) and strict two-phase locking (S2PL), adapting to different contention levels to reduce transaction aborts while maximizing parallelism. -- Read-Write Separation: Accelerates read-only cross-chain invocations through off-chain execution while preserving correctness with a dual-processing validation mechanism. -- Efficient Cross-Chain Coordination: Extends the traditional two-phase commit (2PC) protocol with distributed deadlock detection and adaptive state management to ensure both atomicity and serializability across independent blockchains. Experimental results show that ShuttleCross significantly improves cross-chain performance, achieving up to 58% lower latency and 55% higher throughput than GPACT, while maintaining strong correctness guarantees under realistic workloads. This work closely aligns with Theta's vision of decentralized infrastructure. As AI, Web3, and decentralized applications increasingly span multiple blockchain ecosystems, efficient cross-chain execution will become a critical building block for scalable decentralized services. ShuttleCross provides a practical foundation for enabling high-performance interoperability without sacrificing consistency or reliability.

Real customers pay for real compute. Community operators get paid in TFUEL. THETA stakers are the ones earning that TFUEL. When EdgeCloud grows, it benefits the entire network & community.

The conversion mechanism is live, customers are already on EdgeCloud, and operators are already being paid. And we’re growing. We wrote up the full mechanics behind it here 👇 thetalabs.medium.com/why-edg…

AI has never been more focused on inference. Training happens once but inference is what runs for the lifetime of a model. That ongoing demand is what Theta was built for. 🧵

Theta runs two tokens with one job each. THETA is staked to secure the network, and stakers earn TFuel as a reward. TFuel is the working token, used for every job and every payment on EdgeCloud. More compute through EdgeCloud means more TFuel changing hands to pay for it.

When a customer pays in fiat or stablecoins, that revenue is converted to TFuel to pay the community operators who did the work. This isn't a future plan. It runs today, and it scales with how much compute EdgeCloud actually handles.

Customers are already running real inference jobs on EdgeCloud, with demand for our GPU network at record highs. They pay how any business pays, in fiat or stablecoins. They don't think about the infrastructure stack underneath. They just need reliable compute, and we offer it.

Unlike training, inference doesn't need the same tightly coupled hardware that training does. It parallelises cleanly across independent machines. Theta’s community of consumer grade GPUs handle this kind of work well, and they're already distributed across the world & at the edge.
