From Silos to Connected Web3 Future: Axelar's Role in the CrossBlock Alliance

Akshay Aggarwal
Managing Trustee at Blockchained India, Founder & CEO at Token Amigo

Our journey into the decentralized world started with exploring Bitcoin. However, as we got deeper into the Web3 space, we noticed that the original ideals were fading. So, in 2024, we decided to refocus on Bitcoin's truly decentralized ecosystem. This led us to organize a roadshow 'All roads lead to Bitcoin.' with the intention of realigning innovation to the Bitcoin ecosystem.

The Web3 ecosystem has grown a lot since Bitcoin's beginning, with many different blockchains emerging, like Ethereum and others, each solving specific problems to make decentralized finance a reality. We believe that for Web3 to work seamlessly, these blockchains need to be able to communicate and work together. That's why we're launching the 'CrossBlock Alliance' to promote collaboration between different chains.

One key player working towards this vision is Axelar Network. It aims to make it easy for decentralized apps (dapps) to work across different blockchains. Think of it like how Stripe simplified online payments for businesses. Axelar is like that but for dapps, making it simple to interact with different blockchains. It's building a platform that connects over 50 blockchains, making it easy for developers to scale their dapps and integrate new chains without much effort.

Axelar's goals are to break down the barriers between blockchains, empower developers to create innovative dapps, and foster collaboration across different ecosystems. Essentially, Axelar is building bridges not just between blockchains but also between people and ideas, paving the way for a more connected Web3 future.

As part of the CrossBlock Alliance, we at Blockchained India are organizing events in Delhi and Mumbai to raise awareness about Axelar and the importance of a connected Web3 ecosystem. If you're a developer interested in learning how to build on Axelar or a founder seeking grants to deploy your drop across chains, we invite you to join us at these events.
