CRYPTO 101 - KILN BITCOIN STAKING RENDEZ-VOUS
When you first hear about Bitcoin staking, you might assume there's a mistake, given Bitcoin's Proof of Work mechanism. However, Bitcoin staking is now a reality. For instance, during its most recent cap, Babylon successfully facilitated the staking of 57,058.91 BTC.
To help you navigate this new innovation, we've launched a new podcast series, starting with an interview with David Tse, Founder of Babylon, who introduced this concept back in 2023.
Be sure to join us for the third episode, featuring Willem Schroé, Founder at Botanix Labs, which was released a few hours ago.
Want to understand the innovative worlds of Babylon and Core in a snap? We've created 1-pagers to give you a quick and comprehensive overview of these projects.
ANNOUNCEMENT - KILN REACHES $10B AUS MILESTONE IN NOVEMBER
We're excited to share that we've reached an all-time high of $13B+ in assets staked through Kiln’s technology—marking an impressive 190% year-over-year growth as of mid-November, and we're already at $13B.
