Please go into depth on how this would be beneficial. @DaniellMesquita

So it's just about sending avalon's data into another blockchain for 'backup'? I also would like more info about what would this bring to our project

[skzap]

@DaniellMesquita ?

I would go even further away: re-implement Avalon in Substrate. In fact I had it into my to-do list in a very long term, just as a hobby project.

Also, please, @DaniellMesquita, don't confuse Substrate with Substratum -the decentralized Internet-

@kekkyojin
Can Avalon be re-implemented in Polkadot without hardfork?

[kekkyojin]

Yes. Re-implement the node software, not the blockchain specification, so no need of a hard-fork. The same as Ethereum's official client node software and Parity's one, which both are able to communicate between each other.

But it is just a hobbyist project, not something to be used on a production node, although the idea is that it should be fully compatible. Likely I will not begin to implement it, but it is in my "to-do list".

@vaultec81 and @skzap: Polkadot is a competing technology for Cosmos.

Polkadot itself is the hub. Connected to that hub can be independent chains, which can communicate with others via Polkadot chain, built using Substrate framework; other type is the bridge-chain kind, which allow external non-Substrate based chains to communicate with Polkadot connected ones.

Right now it is possible to build a new blockchain which would be independent. When Polkadot rolls out then all Substrate-based project could communicate between each other. In other words: DTube Avalon could communicate with a hipotetical Splinterlands avalon implementation -of course, built on Substrate- and with an hypothetical Ethereum or Tron bridge-chain -without having to use quantum aberrations like Steem Engine-.

I think this is a good idea. Along the same line how I want dtube to be linked with Cardano and Solana. I will take a look into this.
