The Future of Common: Expanding Accessibility and User Control
As decentralized finance (DeFi) matures, platforms like Common are addressing key challenges such as privacy, cross-chain interactions, and community engagement, all powered by the Aleph Zero blockchain. Common aims to enhance liquidity, minimize slippage, and cultivate a robust community through its innovative features and reward initiatives. Common embodies a privacy-first approach, striving to overcome the limitations of traditional decentralized exchanges by prioritizing user confidentiality while maintaining transparency.
Common’s architecture leverages Aleph Zero’s advanced technologies, including zk-SNARKs and a high-throughput consensus algorithm, to provide a secure and flexible DeFi experience. Key features of the platform include liquidity pools, such as USDT/USDC and AZERO/WETH, that incentivize user participation by rewarding liquidity providers. The introduction of an Automated Market Maker (AMM) system facilitates efficient token swaps, complemented by the innovative StableSwap AMM, designed for lower fees and enhanced price stability, particularly for stable assets like USDT and USDC.
In addition to its core functionalities, Common is expanding its offerings with a cross-chain bridge that enables asset transfers between Aleph Zero and Ethereum, significantly enhancing liquidity flow across ecosystems. This feature supports popular tokens, allowing users to tap into broader DeFi opportunities while maintaining a decentralized experience. Common’s commitment to community engagement is evident through initiatives like Common Drops and Alephoria Campaigns, which reward users for staking and liquidity provision, fostering a loyal user base invested in the platform’s long-term growth.

Introducing Archiv3
Poland’s second-largest bank, Pekao S.A., has teamed up with Aleph Zero and Degen House to launch Archiv3, a project dedicated to tokenizing and safeguarding iconic Polish artworks. Utilizing the Aleph Zero L1 blockchain, this initiative creates secure digital reproductions stored in the Arctic World Archive (AWA), aiming to protect Poland’s artistic heritage for future generations. This marks Bank Pekao as the first universal bank to tokenize historical art specifically for preservation, building on its earlier “Unique” project to integrate blockchain with traditional banking.
The decision to adopt Aleph Zero was driven by its advanced technology, speed, security, and commitment to sustainability, including a low carbon footprint and carbon offset initiatives. Michał Walęczak, Director of Private Banking Strategy at Bank Pekao, highlighted Aleph Zero’s experience in collaborating with large institutions as a key factor. The meticulous digitization process involves creating high-quality 3D scans of masterpieces by renowned Polish artists, and these NFTs will be securely archived in the AWA, a vault designed to protect valuable records for future generations.
Aleph Zero Focuses on India
