The Ultimate Guide of Cronos Blockchain

Over the last ten days, the $CRO token pumped more than 100% and now seems to have turned unstoppable. In preparation for the most anticipated event of the year, the Cronos blockchain mainnet launch is set for November 8th on Crypto.com.

Therefore, in this article, you’ll discover everything about the Cronos blockchain and its relation to crypto.com. Let’s first define Cronos.

What is Cronos?

Cronos is an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) chain and will run parallel to the Crypto.org Chain.

This blockchain has the following features:

• Enable Smart Contracts: Developers can build faster dApps on Cronos to process more transactions per minute.
• EVM Compatibility: Cronos can support any dApp or smart contract running on Ethereum or any EVM compatible blockchain to enjoy faster and cheaper transactions.
• Interoperability: Built for NFTs, Metaverse, GameFi, and Web3.0, Cronos is the first Cosmos EVM Chain for DeFi, NFTs, and Metaverse.
• Scale DeFi and DApp ecosystem

Therefore, Crypto.com has provided a USD 100 million fund to support the development of Cronos. But, why does Cronos blockchain exist?

What Will Cronos Solve?

The Ethereum gas fees issues are back again, and it’s killing the floor price on many NFTs and DeFi dApps. Because of this, many dApps are looking for faster and cheaper platforms to port to.

That means Cronos is right in time to grab the opportunity to help developers port their dApps to a cheaper, faster, and scalable blockchain where users don’t have to pay hefty gas fees.

This is because Cronos uses Proof of Authority (PoA), a greener, more streamlined, and scalable consensus mechanism consensus protocol secured by validators. It is faster than other consensus algorithms, more scalable, and depends on much debatable mining consensus.
