The $LOAD fair launch is now live on the Permaweb Index! Anyone can delegate stake to earn $LOAD - the native token of Load Network. Today we reveal the tokenomics and utility of the $LOAD token, and how the fair launch works:

WeaveVM is getting ready for testnet. Follow along as we build hyperscalable EVM compute on top of the only permanent storage chain. WeaveVM will unlock fully onchain storage for EVM applications at any scale. Unlike other EVM chains which offer no incentive for archival storage and can cost up to $50,000 per mb of data stored, 1mb costs ~$0.02 on WeaveVM. As well as unlocking totally new kinds of EVM applications that depend on computing large data sets, WeaveVM will enable ERC20s, battle-tested token standards and Ethereum's financial primitives on @ArweaveEco for the first time. WeaveVM is now running quests for community members as part of the run-up to testnet. Check the chats for details. Join: - Telegram announcements: t.me/weavevm - Telegram chat: t.me/weavevm_chat - Discord: dsc.gg/wvm For more on WeaveVM and its approach to solving the EVM storage dilemma, check blog.wvm.dev

Research shows that the EVM spends just 13% of its time executing smart contracts but 84% on operations relating to storage access. The EVM has a storage problem, and WeaveVM seeks to solve it: blog.wvm.dev/evm-global-stat…

The WeaveVM testnet will validate our unique gas economics: storage fee in $AR + EVM fee market, wrapped as $WVM. Sneak preview of the faucet for when we launch...

WeaveVM testnet v0: EVM compatibility & SmartWeave in blobspace (ERC-7689). 📃 The WeaveVM testnet v0 will support both traditional EVM and @mem_tech / SmartWeave-style contracts. ⚡️ EVM on WeaveVM Ethereum is the gold standard for blockchain compute, but the world computer doesn't have a hard drive. WeaveVM addresses the on-node storage bottleneck of EVM chains by offloading storage to @ArweaveEco, the world's only permanent storage chain. This enables new use cases for fully onchain dApps with data that can be natively computed by the chain's execution environment, and reduces third party trust assumptions. Interacting with WeaveVM will be the same as any EVM chain, including MetaMask support, ERC20 tokens, and L1 <> L2 bridges. We ensured existing EVM dApps like Uniswap and Aave can be deployed 1:1 on WeaveVM and take advantage of its radically improved approach to storage. 🪄 SmartWeave on WeaveVM (ERC-7689) WeaveVM is a sovereign EVM rollup that settles to Arweave, not Ethereum. Built on reth, WeaveVM has blobspace capacity for "smart blobs" -- a novel use of blobspace DA that enables SmartWeave-style contracts like @mem_tech functions to make use of native EVM functionality and EVM DA while executing extremely flexible computation offchain on a mem.tech node. With this feature, WeaveVM supports both EVM and SmartWeave contracts in a context that can make strong DA guarantees, easily decentralize, and make calls off to data from any chain, oracle, or web2 source. blog.wvm.dev/testnet-v0/

EVM data on @aoTheComputer? Say hello to elciao. We just released a new open source tool to expose EVM data to ao processes. With elciao, ao processes can verify EVM txs and contract states, and store state changes and proofs permanently. blog.wvm.dev/evm-light-clien…

Internally testing WeaveVM 👀 Wen public? When it's ready (soon). If you're a dev with an idea, you can get early access and $WVM allocation here: wvm.dev/ecosystem

How will WeaveVM work together with the @aoTheComputer ecosystem? It's a question we get a lot. Here's an article to explain: blog.wvm.dev/weavevm-ao/

$350,000 in $WVM allocation is available for devs building out the WeaveVM ecosystem in testnet. wvm.dev/ecosystem With testnet right around the corner, we're looking to talk with devs who want to build DeFi, SocialFi, GameFi and interoperability protocols on top of WeaveVM. Whether you're a founder from another eco with a project to deploy on WeaveVM, or want to start from scratch on the only EVM compatible chain with limitlessly scalable storage, we want to hear from you. Tag a dev and let's get building 🖥️

WeaveVM is now Load Network. [ ^^] As the largest data protocol on Arweave by monthly transaction volume since launch, we've been integrated as the storage layer for chains like @avax, @MetisL2, @rss3_. We've been integrated as DA for @dymension, secured indexed blobs for @blobscan, and built blob permanence for @eigen_da. We've seen our mission to make @ArweaveEco storage first-class in EVM land become a reality. But by pushing the limits of what's possible on the EVM, the network has evolved. Load Network is the onchain data center: Unbounded storage and high-bandwidth compute, at an affordable rate, ready to drop into your chain, DA layer or dApp as easily as you’d integrate a cloud service. Traditional EVM chains deal in kilobytes. Load Network breaks the storage barrier with bundles up to 492GB - enough to store an entire year of Ethereum's ledger history and several days of Celestia's output in a single transaction. Load Network will expand with an @eigencloud-powered hot cache layer between the EVM interface and Arweave cold storage. This provides Ethereum-secured data guarantees for flexible storage terms, as well as Arweave guarantees. On Load Network, it will be possible to write 2 types of programs: EVM smart contracts, and @aoTheComputer processes. Rather than rebuilding an EVM inside ao, Load uses a shared sequencing architecture — a bidirectional data pipeline that allows both ecosystems to use each other's strengths without compromise. With a vision to become the onchain data center, Load Network is focused on scale and interoperability – scaling the core capabilities of the network to increase bandwidth and decrease latency, and widely integrating with the stacks developers already use to make onchain storage the smart default for building decentralized applications, not "AWS + token". Check out the Load Network ecosystem to see who’s already using Load and get involved yourself: load.network/ecosystem -- grants program active. The future of onchain data is [ LOADING ████▒▒▒▒▒▒ ] DM to be a part of it blog.load.network/weavevm-is…

Today we’re launching the WeaveVM testnet to the public. This marks the first major milestone in our mission to provide chains and data-intensive dApps with a base layer for limitless onchain storage and affordable high-throughput DA.

Alphanet V3 is here. - Huge data throughput. Could run ~2,000 instances of Base or 15,000 OP Mainnets, going by current kb/s demand - 800x faster Arweave queries - Migration to @ar_io_network Turbo - Oracles, via @sedaprotocol - EVM and Substrate compatibility for ledger data settlement - Transaction tags to build flexible data protocols Since V2, we've seen an uptick in L1 and L2 data settlement transactions from chains like @dymension, @humanode_io, and @MetisL2. This brings the total value of data archived (TVDA) on WeaveVM to over $3b. Full release notes: blog.wvm.dev/alphanet-v3/

We're centered around these core use cases: 🔹 High-throughput DA for L2s. WeaveVM could handle DA for every network and rollup listed on rollup.wtf, and still have 99.3% remaining capacity.

2) Claim test tokens from the faucet: wvm.dev/faucet

We're excited to be already working on partnerships at the app layer, and with L2 partners like @risechain, @rss3_ , and @goatnetwork to lift the storage barrier that prevents the EVM from achieving broad utility for applications with web2-like throughput.

WeaveVM is a sovereign EVM network built with the goal of solving the EVM storage dilemma with @ArweaveEco. It gives the coming generation of high-performance chains a place to settle and store data, without worrying about cost, availability, or permanence.

Yesterday we launched the WeaveVM testnet after non-stop building since December 2023. We envision WeaveVM as the home for the coming generation of high-performance L2s and storage-heavy dApps. 💾 Get all the details on the WeaveVM testnet in this post: blog.wvm.dev/testnet-is-live…

WeaveVM now connects Solidity smart contracts directly to Arweave. Introducing the bidirectional permanent data pipeline. This integration lets EVM developers easily store and access data on Arweave -- step 1 towards lifting the EVM storage barrier. @ArweaveEco is known for its decentralised and permanent storage. By making it directly accessible inside the EVM, developers can overcome Ethereum's storage limits and use Arweave's data repository right from their smart contracts. This opens the door to building fully on-chain applications, like content-rich games and social media platforms, where all content is stored securely and permanently on Arweave. NFT creators can now store their metadata on Arweave, ensuring NFTs remain accessible and valuable without depending on centralised servers or temporary storage. This integration also boosts interoperability with @aoTheComputer. Posting directly to the Arweave L1 means being able to trigger ao agents inside processes from the EVM side. If you're curious about the technical details and want to see how this integration can help your project, check out the blog post for more information: blog.wvm.dev/weavevm-arweave…

We're building the first EVM-compatible compute protocol on Arweave. WeaveVM aims to be the foundation for a new EVM ecosystem on the permaweb, provide support for ERC20/ERC721 tokens, and enable EVM contracts native access to the most scalable permanent storage that exists.

WeaveVM now has 2,510 users on the waitlist — here's what we've been up to in the first week of January.

Dymension (@dymension) RollApps can now use Load Network as a DA layer. This integration gives RollApps high-throughput DA (~62.5mb/s) and permanent storage -- no need to run infra to store your chain's history. blog.load.network/dymension-…

.@MetisL2 chose WeaveVM to maintain a full live ledger copy on @ArweaveEco, with new blocks being settled permanently as soon as they come in. For rollups — especially rollups with decentralized sequencers — data permanency and transparency is essential. WeaveVM provides a native EVM interface for chains to hook into Arweave storage at the ledger, DA, and smart contract level. Read about the partnership in full here: blog.wvm.dev/metis-and-weave…

This week users added 500,000 ANS-104 DataItems to Load S3. Load S3 is a HyperBEAM-powered storage layer that holds data before it's committed to @ArweaveEco - and it just hit 1.5m items.

Using AWS S3? Now it's one line of code to use Load Network instead. We just launched an S3-compatible Load endpoint, and all you to need to do is add it to your existing S3 client code. This migrates you from S3 to @ArweaveEco: load.network/feature/s3-sdk

We're getting closer to replacing archive nodes entirely. If you use WeaveVM for ledger storage (like @MetisL2, @avax, @rss3_, @dymension), you can now reconstruct your chain's state from that data. With state reconstruction, devs can pull archived data from WeaveVM storage and reconstruct the World State Trie in just a few lines of code. This bypasses reliance on centralized, gatekept archival node solutions. Details here: blog.wvm.dev/state-reconstru… DM to get involved in the PoC.

WeaveVM just went live as a blob data provider on @blobscan. We now have a permanent, decentralized way to access blobs posted by Optimism, Base, Arbitrum, and any chain that uses Ethereum EIP-4844 for DA. Long live the blobs (literally) example: blobscan.com/blob/0x013e33d2…

Strange devices are landing on Load. @aoTheComputer's HyperBEAM frees the EVM from its own limitations, and Load provides the high-bandwidth client that can speak EVM - the onchain lingua franca.

The WeaveVM DA ExEx 🔌 Add @ArweaveEco-powered DA and storage to any Reth network with a few lines of copypastable code. Adding a DA layer usually needs custom implementation or requires that a chain has been architected from the start with one DA solution in mind. We’re on a mission to make it simple for any chain to plug in WeaveVM as frictionlessly as possible, so we’re excited to roll out an integration any Reth network can use to tap into WeaveVM’s high-throughput DA and permanent storage without any changes to the sequencer code. blog.wvm.dev/da-exex/

We've been talking about the onchain data center for a while, but what is it? Data centers power gigantic cloud services like AWS and Google Cloud. These providers generally offer compute and storage. Compute = VMs, docker, serverless functions. For Load, it's EVM smart contracts, HyperBEAM devices, and @aoTheComputer processes. Storage = an object-bucket model. For Load, it's Arweave, load0, and a HyperBEAM-powered temporary storage layer. We're able to replicate the web2 data center pattern inside a decentralized web3 paradigm, all powered by the Load Cloud API key, HyperBEAM, and the $AO token for payments. You get: + Applications that can’t be shut down (permanent storage, decentralized hosting) + Data that users actually own (not just “stored” somewhere mysterious) + Developers who aren’t victims to platform rent-seeking (predictable costs, no vendor lock-in) The onchain data center is inevitable. blog.load.network/the-onchai…

Introducing the Load Cloud (cloud.load.network) Version 1: Load Network + IPFS + Arweave Upload a file to Load Cloud, get a permanently pinned IPFS hash and Load txid pointing to the data stored on @ArweaveEco. Still using IPFS? Reference Load Network data with an IPFS hash and don't break your existing dependencies. Uploading data onchain shouldn't be any more difficult than web2. But in web2, you don't own your data, it's not permanent. Users just want to put their data somewhere and forget about the upkeep. Developers just want a permanent reference to their data that resolves in any environment. Whichever you are, we built cloud.load.network for you. The Load Network Cloud will evolve into all-in-one tool to interact with various Load Network storage interfaces and pipelines: one UI, one API key, various integrations, with web2 UX.

From the depths of the WeaveVM R&D department: a way to use Reth ExExes and @eigencloud AVS to build low latency event-driven activation. Ethereum can't natively run functions on its own, so relies on humans or servers to listen for triggers and submit transactions based on events, on and offchain. What if these event-driven activatooors were embedded as part of the EVM node itself? As a side-product of our research into AVS, we've written a paper on a theoretical model for this along with a proof of concept. This MVP is also the first AVS operator inside an ExEx, serving as a template for how to build your own: blog.wvm.dev/operator-as-exe…

WeaveDrive -- an @aoTheComputer data protocol from @fwdresearch (AOP-5) -- will be supported on WeaveVM Alphanet v0.4.0 with a Reth ExEx This means the EVM node itself has support plugged in, and any other EVM network can do the same 👉 WeaveDrive Spec: hackmd.io/@ao-docs/H1JK_WezR

The WeaveVM Bundler is the fastest, cheapest and most scalable way to store EVM data onchain, with 40x higher relative throughput than before.
