HeLa Layer-1 Solution
Q: What is the Layer-1 solution provided by HeLa Labs? A: The Layer-1 solution provided by HeLa Labs is the HeLa Chain. It features a modular design with an asset integration layer that facilitates the seamless integration of assets across runtimes in a modular blockchain environment. It also includes an execution, a consensus, and a storage layer that makes the chain highly flexible and scalable. One of the special features is built-in stable coin token that plays gas fees.
Q: What is so special about the Layer-1 solution by HeLa Labs? A: HeLa Chain is unique in its design and features. It offers a built-in stable coin token that serves as the gas fee for transactions, reducing volatility and increasing real-world user adoption. It also features a multi-level decentralized identity for enhanced security and privacy-preserving transactions for added confidentiality.
Q: Does the chain support EIP-1559? A: Yes, we have implemented a header that supports EIP-1559 to be EVM compatible.
Q: How do I get the price feed oracle? Do you have Chainlink or Pyth.network? A: We have created our own price oracle, which is currently free. We are also working on integrating other price oracles.
Q: How much are the gas fees? A: We are adjusting them to average USD 0.02. HeLa chain uses its native stable coin as payment for the gas fee.
Q: Where can I get HeLa coin? A: Currently, it is not publicly available.
Getting Started
Q: Where can I find HeLa Labs documents? A : HeLa Labs documents can be found on official website: https://docs.helalabs.com/
Q: Where is the HeLa Labs token used? A: HeLa is the first Layer 1 blockchain powered by a fiat-backed stablecoin (HLUSD). Currently only HeLa USD token called HLUSD is available. This suggests that the HeLa Labs token (HLUSD) is used within the HeLa blockchain.
Q: Where can I find information about HeLa Lab's tokenomics? A: https://docs.helalabs.com/welcome-to-hela-network/hela-tokenomics
Q: In what way are HeLa Labs blockchain transactions processed, and which consensus mechanism does HeLa Labs use? A: At HeLa Labs, we've developed HeLa, our next-generation layer 1 blockchain protocol, with the clear mission of bridging the gap between the cutting-edge technology of Web3 and the real world's needs. We've realized that despite the impressive advancements in blockchain technology, mass adoption has been elusive. That's why we've focused on addressing key challenges like scalability, interoperability, privacy, and user experience.
Our approach is built on innovative features like Modular Design, the use of Stablecoin as Gas Fee, Decentralized Identity (DID), and EVM Compatibility. These elements work together to make our blockchain more accessible and practical for everyday use. As for our consensus mechanism, we've adopted the Tendermint protocol, utilizing a Byzantine-Fault-Tolerant (BFT) system. This method ensures that transactions are processed securely and efficiently, enabling trust and collaboration on our network.
Q: How can I apply for a grant to build on HeLa Labs? A: HeLa offers grant program to various start-ups. To apply for a grant program, please go here to apply link.
