Summary
Babylon
Babylon, a blockchain protocol built on the Cosmos SDK, aims to leverage the security of Bitcoin to enhance the security of Cosmos zones and other Proof-of-Stake chains. The project is developed by a team of consensus protocol researchers from Stanford and experienced layer 1 developers from around the world. At its core, Babylon is designed to use Bitcoin as a source of trust and a reliable timestamping service to benefit other blockchains in the broader ecosystem. By using Bitcoin's immense hash power and reliable timestamping capabilities, Babylon can significantly enhance the security of smaller blockchains, without compromising their autonomy.
Team:
Babylon was founded as a result of the combined efforts of distinguished researchers in consensus protocol from Stanford University and top-notch layer 1 developers from across the world. Professor David Tse, a Shannon Award and Hamming Medal recipient, founded the project at Stanford University. The team has an impressive track record of working with the Ethereum Foundation to reinforce the security of the Proof-of-Stake Ethereum chain, in addition to conducting basic research on consensus protocols. Their collective expertise has contributed significantly to the ongoing evolution of the blockchain industry, and Babylon is set to make a substantial impact in the field.
Babylon has raised $8M in a seed round led by IDG and Breyer Capital (early investors of Coinbase and Circle) and is looking to raise additional funds in the coming months to support developer outreach among other efforts.
