This week, Sal and Dave catch up with Hardhat Chat to discuss one of the most talked about and exciting launches in recent crypto history - Ore Supply. Ore is a POW coin which is being mined on Solana in an attempt to fulfill Satoshi's original vision of a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. Ore's unique insight is in decoupling consensus from the POW token's distribution to miners (leaving it instead up to Solana's consensus engine) - thus allowing for a completely new design space for a new-age Bitcoin, and potentially heralding a new wave of POW mining tokens on highly scalable modern blockchains. At Unlayered, we seek out upcoming narratives and market metas before they become consensus - and Ore might just be the project to lead the next stage of this cycle.
