Uniswap’s L2 chain Unichain plans to launch new validation network

Unichain, a decentralized financial layer solution developed by Uniswap Labs, is focused on the launch of a new validation network.

As a chain decentralization feature, the validation network adds another layer of purpose to the network. It also reduces the risks of the network carrying out contradictory blocks and contributes to the Defi growth of Unichain.

The Unichain team announcement This on March 7, revealing that the plans are part of its roadmap.

In particular, Uniswap (UNITED)) Launched Unichain Mainnet In February, fulfilling a target set for the first months of 2025.

Before this stage, the developers of the Platform focused on DEFI referred to plans for new decentralization of the network. The objective, according to Unichain, was to have a new validation network, nicknamed Unichain Validation Network, or UVN, in place.

Anyone can run a node and participate in checking the blocks via UVN.

“When it is launched, the Unichain validation network (UVN) is designed to advance the decentralization of Unichain and allow faster purpose. The UVNs are made up of a network of complete nodes that will monitor and check the blocks of the sequencer on Mainnet, ”noted Unichain Foundation in a recent blog article.

To encourage network participants, Unichain stressed that 65% of its network revenues would go to validators and stalkers.

Unichain says that an UVN test version is planned for the Testnet environment in the coming months. Once it is posted on Mainnet, it will open 65% of net income for distribution to validators and stalkers. Until then, the Unichain Foundation will deploy the revenues of the chain generated to the growth efforts of ecosystems via its unichain growth reserve.

In addition to the rapid block times helped by the decentralized node operator platform under UVN, Unichain will also include Rollups and will be part of Optimism’s Post Mainnet Superchain.

Development will see the Laboratoires Uniswap becoming a basic contributor to the OP battery, as well as by collective optimism receiving a share of unichain net income.
