Welcome to Episode 4 of the Red Horizon Podcast with host ~tiller-tolbus and special guest ~lagrev-nocfep, focusing on "%chain," a project aiming to integrate blockchain technology into the Urbit ecosystem. This discussion highlights the initiative's potential to tackle the issue of low star valuation in Urbit, offering technical insights into building an L1 blockchain as an Urbit application and its implications for decentralized infrastructure.

Explore the unique value of Urbit's address space, the mechanics behind %chain, including the Tendermint consensus protocol, and the envisioned role of a new fungible token within the Urbit economy. ~tiller and ~lagrev invite the community's feedback on this collaborative effort to enhance Urbit's digital landscape.

This episode provides a deep dive into %chain's objectives, challenges, and the transformative potential for Urbit's future.

In this episode, Anthony Arroyo, also known as ~poldec-tonteg and Director of the Ecosystem at Urbit Foundation, takes us on a journey from theory to reality, shedding light on the reality of "technical differentiators" and the importance of real users. We discuss why the Urbit ID system was created with a hard cap, why Urbit uses obscure language (and why it's not a problem), the potential for an Urbit-based reputation system, and much more.
