Project Updates

ViteBridge

We recently performed some deep research regarding available cross-chain projects in the industry to ensure that we come up with a competitive and cutting-edge cross-chain solution - and some technical details of this solution are already finalized. Our solution, ViteBridge, is the first cross-chain protocol dedicated to universality under the premise of decentralization.
The ViteBridge White Paper will officially be released soon after our final review is complete.

Vite Website Upgrade

Based on Vite 2.0’s official plan, Vite’s official website will undergo a major upgrade that will follow our new concept and slogan: “Bridging Every Blockchain in a Multi-chain Future.” Our new website, Vite 2.0’s first milestone, is coming soon.

Activities

The Community Wish List

On January 21st, Vite released the Community Wish List. After two weeks of gathering community requests and suggestions, the Vite Developer Committee (VDC) collected 10 tasks from the community. After thoughtful review, the VDC selected the three top tasks which can be independently developed by our community. We welcome all our Community Developers participate in these tasks.

Details for each task can be found here: The Vite Community Wish List

Industry Exchanges

Vite COO Richard Yan released a new episode of “The Blockchain Debate Podcast” on the topic: “Diem is a glorified PayPal.” Diem aimed to be a global borderless currency with an install base of two billion. It was supposed to be a game changer for commerce and remittances. What are the ambitious promises and regulatory constraints around Diem? What are politicians’ biggest concerns about Diem? Will it end up getting reduced to a PayPal? How will Facebook make money from this? Our two guests will cover all of the above issues surrounding this heavily discussed currency.

The guests for this episode are David Gerard, an author of two crypto books and a no-coiner who also writes a popular newsletter titled “Attack of the 50 Foot Blockchain”, and Bryce Weiner, a former Fortune 500 developer with more than 20 years of software engineering experience and nearly a decade in cryptocurrency development and monetization.

The Blockchain Debate Podcast is a channel for Vite Labs to connect and brainstorm with key thought leaders in the industry. Check out all the episodes here: The Blockchain Debate Podcast.
