Weekly Highlight — U.S. Economy Growth Driven by Improved Productivity

If U.S. economic growth is strong, why is the Federal Reserve considering interest rate cuts? This question was recently posed to Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Instead of focusing solely on the Fed's actions, we should explore the reasons behind the robust growth, and see how it can be sustained.

Real GDP is expected to exceed pre-pandemic levels for the second consecutive year. Typically, strong growth raises concerns about overheating, but inflation has actually fallen. Recent growth is largely due to increased productivity and a growing workforce, which are not inflationary and can help rebalance supply and demand.

A significant factor behind this success is the rise in labor productivity, averaging 2.3% over the past two years — faster than the four years before the pandemic. This uptick is linked to a surge in new business applications, especially in the tech sector, as the pandemic's economic shifts and relief measures lowered barriers to entrepreneurship, particularly benefiting underrepresented groups.

The boost in productivity also reflects workers moving to roles better suited to their skills, a trend accelerated by the 

. This mobility has been essential for productivity gains, as higher job turnover correlates with increased business dynamism.

However, sustaining higher productivity is a challenge. The Fed must avoid overly restricting the economy, as high interest rates can deter investment in technology. Additionally, a gradual cooling of the labor market, with declining job quits, is concerning.

For policymakers, monitoring labor market dynamics and business formation is crucial. If these indicators decline, productivity and growth could wane. The U.S. economy has made significant progress, and maintaining this momentum is essential.

Just a Chill Guy (CHILLGUY): Embracing the Art of Nonchalance

Zircuit (ZRC) combines optimistic and ZK rollups with AI-driven security, offering fast, low-cost Ethereum Layer 2 solutions. 

 network has flourished, mainly due to the ongoing network congestion, high fees and poor scalability of the latter. Many of these platforms use rollup technology, whereby batches of multiple transactions processed off-chain are bundled together and posted in bulk to the underlying Layer 1. Ethereum-linked rollups mainly come in two varieties 

 (ZK). While optimistic rollups boast lower computational overhead, the ZK variety of these networks features a higher degree of security.

Zircuit (ZRC) is a Layer 2 chain that adopts a hybrid approach, combining the elements of optimistic and 

. This lets the platform offer the performance benefits of optimistic technology along with the security of ZK validity proofs. To further enhance overall security, Zircuit uses a unique 

 (AI)–driven system of monitoring for malicious transactions.

 (ZRC) is a hybrid Layer 2 blockchain that combines the features of optimistic and ZK rollups, and uses AI-driven monitoring for potentially harmful transactions. 

 rollup development technology, a popular framework for building optimistic rollup networks. Additionally, it uses zero-knowledge proofs, which lets the platform offer the best of both worlds 

 the performance benefits of optimistic rollups and the security of ZK technology. Zircuit is 

The Zircuit project takes security very seriously, and has introduced a unique system of AI-based protection against malicious transactions at the sequencer node level. The use of ZK proofs and an AI-based protection system make Zircuit one of the most secure platforms in the competitive world of Ethereum Layer 2 chains.

Along with its excellent security benefits, Zircuit also boasts low costs, fast transactions, excellent scalability and 2-second block production intervals. All these features make it an ideal environment for 

 (DApps) in various niches, particularly 

 (DeFi). In fact, the leading protocols within the Zircuit ecosystem are all dedicated to the finance niche, with Zircuit Staking being the largest application by TVL.

With its heavy focus on DeFi, Zircuit aims to become a leading liquidity hub for various token types within the sector, including 

. These assets can be staked through the Zircuit staking program — supported by the platform's Liquidity Hub — to earn staking APRs, airdrop rewards and points based on the Zircuit Point program (covered further in our article).

The platform also operates a secure native bridging solution, 

, to help users transfer assets between its Layer 2 network and Ethereum Layer 1.

The company behind the project, Zircuit Ltd., was founded in 2021 in Canada by Dr. Martin Derka, Jan Gorzny and Angel Xu. Zircuit's testnet was launched in November 2023, but made headlines in April 2024 when the project reported that its 

 (TVL) had soared past $2 billion. While testnet TVLs are more a gauge of future potential for a blockchain than an indicator of its existing worth, the news attracted the attention of industry observers toward the platform. Following its highly publicized testnet success, Zircuit launched the first phase of its mainnet in August 2024. This was followed by the launch of the platform's native token, ZRC, in November 2024.

As a typical rollup, Zircuit uses an off-chain sequencer node to batch and organize Layer 2 transactions for subsequent posting to the underlying Ethereum Layer 1. The batches have ZK validity proofs attached to them to signal to Layer 1 validators that they’re free from fraudulent transactions. Zircuit's architecture also includes prover nodes, whose job is to produce these validity proofs.

However, unlike other rollups using ZK proofs (also known as validity proofs), Zircuit doesn't generate validity proofs for every block of transactions. Instead, some blocks have pre-generated template proofs, while others go through the process of having a dedicated validity proof created for them. After a few blocks featuring validity proofs, there are several more that utilize template proofs. The image below illustrates this approach.

The key reason Zircuit has adopted this form of proof design is that the process of generating ZK proofs is computationally intensive. By using template proofs for some of the blocks in a sequence, Zircuit can reduce the overall computational overhead. However, the project’s team has stated that the template proof model is temporary, and will be phased out in the future. At that stage, the platform will move to generating ZK proofs for each block.

Zircuit features a highly modular design whereby provers — responsible for generating validity proofs on the platform — can easily be plugged into or removed from the network. This modular approach is distinct from the standard ZK rollup design, in which provers are more tightly and less flexibly integrated into the overall architecture.

As noted earlier, Zircuit uses a dedicated sequencer to organize and batch transactions into blocks. The platform also applies AI-driven monitoring at the sequencer level (the Sequencer Level Security, or SLS) to spot and exclude fraudulent transactions before they’re finalized on Layer 2.

When transactions are first posted to Zircuit, they enter the 

 — a temporary area from which the sequencer picks and organizes individual transactions into blocks. The mempool is being monitored at all times, using AI algorithms to identify suspicious transactions. If a transaction in the mempool raises a flag, it's quarantined and assessed for validity before the sequencer can include it in a block. The image below shows how this process works.

One of the distinct features of Zircuit is its hybrid architecture, which combines the properties of optimistic and ZK rollups. At the base level, Zircuit is built using Optimism's Bedrock development framework, a technology popular for optimistic rollup networks. However, the use of ZK proofs — or, to be more precise, a combination of validity proofs and template proofs — ensures that Zircuit enjoys a security level that standard optimistic rollups normally can't match.

The use of AI-based SLS provides robust security to Zircuit, complementing the already highly secure ZK proof system. Very few Layer 2 networks in the industry currently feature anything similar, making the platform a true pioneer of AI use for sequencer-level operations.

Like any rollup based on Optimism Bedrock, Zircuit enjoys EVM compatibility. This allows for smooth interoperability with the underlying Ethereum Layer 1. EVM compatibility also makes it easy for developers familiar with Ethereum’s environment to develop Zircuit-based DApps, or to port existing Ethereum applications to the platform. Developers can take advantage of technologies commonly used for Ethereum (e.g., the Solidity programming language and the Hardhat development framework) to build Zircuit applications and smart contracts.

Zircuit Bridge is a native bridging solution designed to easily transfer tokens between Ethereum and Zircuit. It boasts high security, low transaction fees and fast transfers, and allows users to move a variety of cryptocurrencies between Ethereum and Zircuit, including ETH, 

) and LRTs like Super Symbiotic LRT (weETHs). As of late November 2024, the total number of cryptos supported by the bridge is close to 30.

Zircuit has launched a reward program called Zircuit Points. Users can earn these Points by staking supported assets, and by participating in the Build to Earn initiative (more on this below). Accumulated points will be converted to ZRC tokens in the future. Points also create the opportunity to qualify for token airdrops.

The primary way for most users to earn Zircuit points is via 

. The Zircuit Staking program lets you stake LSTs, LRTs, popular stablecoins, some wrapped tokens and Ether (ETH) to earn points. Using LSTs and LRTs, you can earn yields (along with native Zircuit staking APRs and Points) from the respective staking and restaking platforms that issue these assets.

Zircuit Points earned via staking have different multipliers, depending upon the asset. For example, Ether has a multiplier of 0.5, while LSTs, LRTs and stablecoins have a multiplier of 1. Multipliers for different LST and LRT assets may be subject to change in the future.

Build to Earn is another way to qualify for Zircuit Points. The program allows developers to contribute to the Zircuit ecosystem and earn Points in a number of ways, including:

Launched in November 2024, ZRC is the platform's native cryptocurrency. It's an 

 asset deployed on both Zircuit and Ethereum Layer 1. ZRC is mainly used for reward distributions, and participation in token airdrops for ecosystem DApps. Currently, transaction fees on the network are paid in Ether. It's possible that, in the future, ZRC might be used for some transaction fee payments.

ZRC is also used for rewards under the Gas Rebate program. As users conduct transactions on the platform, they 

. Zircuit’s Gas Rebate program provides rebates to offset some of the incurred fees. The amount of ZRC earned as a rebate is proportional to the amount spent on gas in ETH; the project's documentation states that for each ETH spent on gas, the user earns 125% in ZRC. All kinds of gas fee payments qualify for the rebate, including ordinary asset transfers and transactions involving interaction with Zircuit DApps.

ZRC is a supply-capped token, with a maximum and total supply of 10 billion. The token's supply allocation shares are as follows:

The ZRC token is available on Bybit's Spot market as a swap pair with USDT (

 to grab a share of the 5 million ZRC prize pool. New users who sign up for a Bybit account and complete identity verification can earn ZRC rewards by accumulating a deposit volume of at least 2,000 ZRC, or by depositing 100 USDT and trading 100 USDT worth of ZRC via their first trade with Bybit. 

Meanwhile, existing users can qualify for ZRC rewards by trading at least 500 USDT worth of ZRC on the Bybit Spot market, with the possibility of earning up to 10,000 ZRC based on trading volume. The 

 event will run through Dec 10, 2024, 8:59AM UTC.

Zircuit is among the pioneering Layer 2 platforms to adopt a hybrid design for a rollup network. Thanks to the platform's architecture, users can take advantage of low transaction costs, fast transfers and great scalability while enjoying the benefits of high security delivered by ZK proofs and AI-driven mempool monitoring. AI-based monitoring for fraudulent transactions is a particularly notable feature of the platform and is undoubtedly among the most advanced technologies employed in the blockchain industry.

User security combined with faster and cheaper transactions for the Ethereum network — all in one package — is now feasible, thanks to Zircuit's innovative technology and unique approach!

Recursive inscriptions are an extension of the standard Ordinal inscription technology on Bitcoin which can retrieve data from existing inscriptions.

The pioneer of blockchain technology, Bitcoin (

 functionality. Its primary purpose, as defined by the blockchain’s mysterious founder, 

, was to facilitate secure and anonymous digital asset transfers and storage. This philosophy was thoroughly rattled in early 2023 with the introduction of the Bitcoin Ordinals protocol, which made it possible to inscribe pieces of data onto minuscule portions of a Bitcoin (called satoshis), opening up the prospect of using smart contracts on the chain.

The advent of Ordinal inscriptions paved the way for another key innovation, recursive inscriptions, which facilitate the storage of potentially vast amounts of data on the Bitcoin network. As a result, a plethora of potential use cases — such as gaming, advanced 3D animation and video, and 

 (DeFi) applications — have become feasible.

This new technology represents nothing less than a major paradigm shift, one in which crypto traders may soon engage in coin swaps on Bitcoin as easily as they do on Ethereum (

) or other smart contract chains, along with other use cases. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at recursive inscriptions — possibly the most profound innovation to Bitcoin since the day of the blockchain’s birth some 15 years ago.

If you have some Bitcoin lying around in your crypto wallet, you’re likely to be in possession of a huge number of 

 — the smallest units in a BTC coin — no matter how modest your Bitcoin holdings are. Each Bitcoin is made up of 100 million of these satoshis. In December 2022, blockchain developer Casey Rodarmor realized that each satoshi on the network could be uniquely identified by the positional number within its transaction block and the time when the block was mined.

Moreover, any form of data or content, such as images, text, videos or programming code, can be inscribed onto a satoshi and stored on the Bitcoin network. The satoshi's unique and traceable nature, coupled with the customized data inscribed onto it, yields a crypto asset that’s essentially similar to a 

In January 2023, Rodarmor launched the Ordinals protocol, which facilitates the creation of

 based on inscribing custom content onto satoshis. Ordinal inscriptions (aka Bitcoin NFTs) based on Rodarmor's protocol are pretty different from standard NFTs used on Ethereum, Solana (

) and other smart contract blockchains. Unlike these standard NFTs, Ordinal inscription–based Bitcoin NFTs don’t require smart contracts.

Moreover, Ordinal inscriptions store all of an NFT’s metadata — ownership information, mint date, edition number and other key details — as well as the actual artwork directly on the Bitcoin blockchain. In contrast, standard NFTs typically store only the token’s metadata on-chain, with the actual artwork often stored on external platforms like IPFS or Web 2.0 cloud solutions.

Recursive inscriptions use the process of retrieving existing inscriptions to form new inscriptions, which are then chained together via a complex data call mechanism. 

As noted above, Ordinal inscriptions keep all of the data, including the inscribed content, directly on the Bitcoin chain. Due to Bitcoin’s block size limit of 4 MB, that’s the maximum you can inscribe onto a satoshi when creating a Bitcoin NFT. While 4 MB sounds ample for short textual data or ordinary 2D images, it quickly becomes very limiting if you need to inscribe longer videos, rich 3D animation or large blocks of programming code.

Rodarmor addressed this limitation in June 2023 when he introduced an exciting update to his original inscription technology — recursive inscriptions. When they’re created on the network, recursive inscriptions can reference content inscribed onto existing inscriptions on the chain. Using a reference to inscriptions created earlier, recursive inscriptions allow you to utilize more content per Bitcoin NFT. By chaining multiple inscriptions this way, you can potentially include a massive amount of data.

By doing away with the 4 MB size limit, recursive inscriptions open up numerous new opportunities and use cases on Bitcoin, such as rich 3D video and animation, 

 (DApps) utilizing embedded smart contract code.

Rodarmor’s idea for recursive inscriptions stems from the long-established concept of recursivity, familiar to many programmers. In programming, recursivity refers to the ability of a piece of code — e.g., a function block — to refer to itself and draw data from previous iterations of the code. The Ordinals creator made an ingenious observation that this concept can be eloquently applied to the process of creating an inscription-based token on Bitcoin.

When a new recursive Ordinal inscription is created, it includes a call to retrieve data from an earlier inscription’s content. In this way, multiple recursive inscriptions chained one after another can allow one Bitcoin Ordinal to utilize a large amount of data.

The critical aspect in this process is that the final inscription in such a chain doesn't have to fully import the data included in the other inscriptions; that would defeat much of the purpose of the entire recursive inscription concept. Instead, it can be designed to reference earlier data and execute some programming code contained in it in a lightweight and efficient way.

Let's consider an example of a large, high-resolution image that’s well over the 4 MB limit of ordinary, non-recursive inscriptions. Instead of including the image file or portions of it, an inscription could simply contain programming code that dynamically creates the image upon being retrieved from another inscription. By calling for and chaining together snippets of code from multiple inscriptions, you can construct the image, which could be several hundreds of megabytes or even gigabytes — all while not violating the cap of 4 MB per individual inscription token/satoshi.

Naturally, such lightweight, efficient code execution opens up opportunities not only for image construction but for other use cases that involve dynamic code execution. This creates opportunities for Bitcoin-based games, DeFi apps and other types of DApps currently facilitated by smart contract code on other blockchains.

While recursive inscriptions can channel on-chain data from previous inscriptions, referencing external content outside of the blockchain — referred to as 

 in the Ordinals protocol terminology — isn’t permitted. One important reason for this is that 

 data can introduce vulnerabilities to Bitcoin’s self-contained security mechanism. A file stored somewhere on a personal network, or even on a well-known Web 2.0 cloud solution, isn’t the best candidate to be part of a platform that prides itself on its security features.

Ordinal inscriptions, and in particular, recursive inscriptions, might be described as the most profound new feature of Bitcoin since the network’s launch in 2009. The key pros of recursive inscription technology are as follows:

However, while recursive inscriptions present exciting opportunities and potential use cases, there are also drawbacks associated with this major Bitcoin innovation. Some cons and risks of recursive inscriptions are as follows:

Recursive inscriptions open up myriad new opportunities in the Bitcoin ecosystem. The blockchain, which has primarily been known as a medium for crypto asset transfers and storage, could turn into a major smart contract hub rivaling Ethereum’s — and even into a gargantuan entertainment platform with games, movies, complex 3D animation and various DApps — in order to satisfy just about anyone’s tastes.

While some Bitcoin purists and idealists are skeptical about inscription technology, pointing out that it introduces elements that have never been envisioned for the network, recursive inscriptions don’t embody a concept that will be abandoned or forgotten. The work to transform Bitcoin from a boring transaction ledger into a large DApp, gaming and entertainment giant has started — all thanks to the arrival of recursive inscriptions.
