Data from CoinPaprika highlighted the impact, showing that trading volume for CKB soared over 400% in just 24 hours, skyrocketing from $25 million to $126.7 million, signaling strong participation from Korean traders.

What is Nervos Network?

Nervos Network is a modular blockchain platform designed to enhance Bitcoin’s capabilities as a layer 2. Its focus is on supporting decentralized applications and scaling solutions. Its architecture enables developers to build on Bitcoin without altering its core.

The native token, CKB (Common Knowledge Byte), plays a central role within the ecosystem. It facilitates network operations, pays transaction fees, and enables users to participate in governance through the Nervos DAO.

Nervos Network employs a set of open-source protocols known as Really Good Bitcoin (RGB). These protocols execute smart contracts off-chain and enable client-side validation. This approach enhances privacy and scalability, allowing for more complex contracts without straining the Bitcoin base layer.

On the Flipside

  • Upbit leads South Korea’s crypto exchange market with an 80% share .
  • CKB is down 70% from its $0.04371 ATH, achieved in May 2021.
  • The CKB token is inflationary , which the team considers the best approach to maintain mining sustainability.
