Original title: 6 Hidden Gems on Celestia

Original author:ARNDXT

Original compilation: Luccy, BlockBeats

Editors note: Under the SOL-ES-TIA narrative, TIAs market value has increased accordingly. Encryption researcher ARNDXT sorted out 6 potential projects based on Celestia, including game chain Ancient, rollup bridge Hyperlane, ZK solution Skip, rollup protocol Cartesi, infrastructure Union and re-pledge mechanism Alt Layer, and elaborated on the optimistic factors respectively. BlockBeats compiles the original text as follows:

Were in SOL-ES-TIA season.

TIA will reach the level of SOL in terms of market capitalization, which will increase 14 times to $255.

TIA（3,3) The staking mechanism will set a new paradigm, and what is built on this basis will be the focus of what I will talk about. Here are 6 projects built on TIA.

Ancient

Ancient is a gaming chain that utilizes Optimistic rollups with Ethereum security.

They are built on Celestia, allowing for scalability, reduced transaction costs, and near-instant confirmations. Ancient offers unparalleled scalability.

catalyst:

• I predict that in 2024 Web3 games will combine guilds, community ownership, and sustainable token economic models.

• The community and investors are the key to the game, they started with a game guild, saw the user base grow rapidly, and then established their own game chain.

HyperLane

Hyperlane is the first Celestia rollup bridge.

Anyone can deploy hyperlane to any blockchain environment, including L1, rollup, and application chains.

catalyst:

• Hyperlane documentation is simple

• Celestia can easily start rollup.

• Hyperlane can easily connect all these rollups.

Under Celestia, between Hyperlane, modular extensions.

Skip

Skip is ZK in Celestia Baselayer and provides SDK for interoperability

catalyst:

Its an odd comparison because the two solve problems differently, but there are some similarities.

• Eigenlayer solves this problem by providing composable liquidity for liquidity staking.

• Skip provides an SDK for interoperability.

Cartesi

Cartesi is an application-specific rollup protocol with a Linux runtime built on Celestia.

They have multiple uses in data model training and on-chain gaming infrastructure.

catalyst:

• The huge savings in gas costs opens up the possibility for open source games to bring unique libraries like Werewolf into the Cartesi VM.

• The backend is coded in #Python, so you dont have to be a #Solidity developer to create dApps

Union

Union is an ultra-efficient zero-knowledge infrastructure layer for general messaging, asset transfers, NFTs, and DeFi.

catalyst:

• Raised 4 million in seed round

• Launched in January 2024

• Running on ZK, interoperability narrative

Alt Layer

Alt Layer takes existing rollups (derived from any rollup stack, such as OP Stack, Arbitrum Orbit, ZKStack, Polygon CDK, etc.) and provides them with EigenLayers re-staking mechanism to bootstrap network security and build a decentralized network .

A repackaged rollup is essentially a set of three vertically integrated AVSs.

catalyst:

• Develop a re-staking + rollup narrative

• rollup as a service

• Supporters: @balajis @polychaincap @hjmomtazi @jump_ @gavofyork @kaiynne @tekinsalimi @twobitidiot
