Kadena Solves Ethereum Scalability with Chainweb EVM
New York, New York, April 3rd, 2025, Chainwire Moving Beyond Layer 2s Through Native Parallel Execution on Proof of Work (PoW) Kadena, the industry leader in scalable blockchain technology, has announced Chainweb EVM with the addition of 20 EVM-compatible chains to its multi-chain network. Chainweb EVM positions Kadena as a decentralized alternative to Ethereum Layer 2s, with near-zero gas fees, infinite scalability, and energy-efficient Proof of Work security. Kadena takes a unique approach to scaling by leveraging native parallelization for high-throughput execution and processing. Their horizontal scaling network can add new chains to absorb demand fluctuations, which reduces block time and keeps gas fees lower than all Layer 2s. Builders can deploy and scale dApps with Solidity smart contracts and leverage EVM tooling natively, all while benefiting from Kadena’s scalable, affordable, and decentralized Layer 1 infrastructure. The Chainweb EVM initiative has received inte...
