“We thought we had seen every model of L2s, but Blast is doing something incredibly inventive. To stand out from the crowd, Blast adopts a model of native yield, which means that it can pass on the yield to users as UX optimizations like free gas and free swaps.”
Blast stands out among other L2 networks built on Ethereum with its native yield feature, enabling users to generate passive income by holding ETH and various stablecoins such as USDC, USDT, and DAI. Positioned as an experimental playground with solid foundations, Blast encourages developers and users to engage in DeFi, gaming, SociaFi, and NFT collections while earning native rewards. The unique feature is facilitated by an auto-rebasing mechanism and collaborations with real-world asset protocols (RWAs). It provides a passive income stream to users, addressing concerns about asset idleness and potentially increasing asset value over time.
The collaboration between Covalent and Blast is a significant milestone in addressing Ethereum’s scalability challenges while fostering innovation within the blockchain ecosystem. By leveraging Covalent’s robust data infrastructure and Blast’s native yield model, developers and users can anticipate enhanced scalability, accessibility, and user experience across a wide range of decentralized applications. Together, Covalent and Blast are leading the way towards a more inclusive and efficient decentralized future.
