NodeKit 確保共享排序器的預種子

NodeKit has raised $1.2 million in a pre-seed round to develop its shared sequencer on Avalanche Subnet for decentralized rollups. The round was led by Borderless Capital with participation from Avalanche’s Blizzard Fund, Polygon Ventures, Wormhole Cross-Chain Ecosystem Fund, and angel investors such as Avail’s Anurag Arjun. NodeKit's SEQ focuses on optimizing performance, robustness, and interoperability for rollups, thus allowing a decentralized network of validators. "Further, rollups integrating with SEQ will gain new cross-chain interoperability. This interoperability is possible because SEQ orders blocks for multiple rollups, allowing for atomic inclusion using atomic bundles within the same block," the startup said in a statement. SEQ is one of the first initiatives to leverage Avalanche’s HyperSDK toolkit. On testnet, HyperSDK has hit 140,000 transactions per second.
