Episode description

Kadena is a scalable Layer-1 on the Proof-of-Work (PoW) blockchain, designed to address the existing challenges of traditional blockchain networks — scalability, security, and decentralization.

Developed by Stuart Popejoy and William Martino, Kadena surpasses the limitations of conventional blockchain layers. Kadena’s mining algorithm, Chainweb, is a multi-braided, scalable blockchain technology that connects multiple chains, encouraging parallel processing and increased throughput. Additionally, Kadena’s native smart contract language, Pact, facilitates users to build secure blockchain applications.

Let’s explore the Kadena algorithm, its characteristics, use cases, and more in detail in this blog.
