Ronin is a delegated proof‑of‑authority sidechain built for gaming, best known for powering Axie Infinity. After the 2022 bridge exploit, Ronin migrated to a 17‑validator set with hardware‑signing requirements and added zkSync‑powered zkRonin bridges for withdrawals. The chain supports ERC‑721 and ERC‑1155 NFTs and charges near‑zero fees denominated in RON.
The dYdX Chain is an app‑specific Cosmos chain that replaced the prior StarkEx L2, giving validators control over an on‑chain order book for perpetual futures. Traders retain familiar features like cross‑margin and isolated positions, and DYDX token holders secure the chain while receiving 100 % of protocol fees. Lambda architecture shards order processing across ABCI++ extensions for sub‑second latency.
