¿ Why Radix?

Radix’s pre-sharded, horizontal architecture is practically infinite, allowing it to scale linearly with the number of validators. A recent test on an unoptimized research network with 128 validators hit ~30k complex swaps per second and its consensus protocol Cerberus has been peer reviewed up to 10m TPS on 1024 shards. Unlike Ethereum’s external scaling solutions, Radix maintains atomic composability across shards and the rest of its stack is also highly optimized for developer experience and mass adoption.

🎯 Objectives

NUDGE thousands of gifted students towards Web3.
BUILD an alumni network that will fund future Radix unicorns.
FRONT LOAD investment to steepen the adoption curve.
ESTABLISH solid partnerships with global academic institutions.
CREATE new applications on the Radix network that can draw in new users.
MATCHMAKE talent with investment partners.

🗯️ Testimonials

💡

“I woke up having never programmed in rust before or ever dealing with the Radix ecosystem but somehow managed to deploy my first NFT contract in test-net a few hours ago. Coding in solidity feels like working in a strait jacket compared to scrypto! Never going back.” - Richard Jarram, Geochain

💡

“Can’t believe we learnt Scrypto and built Smart Contract for InfiniX just in 2 days! Thanks to all the mentors and judges. It was an amazing experience to be there and learn from all of you!” - MD Abdur Razzak, InfiniX

💡

“The experience was both challenging and fulfilling. The concentrated learning over the course of two days surpassed what I had learned over several months and the sense of community and the cooperative spirit were outstanding.” - Jetnor Muhaj, AI Invest.
