I couldn't resist: I decided to put Rialo, the blockchain that aims to bring the real world into Web 3, to the test. Testnets require time, patience, and energy, but I'm going to embark on this journey and better understand what they're proposing here. This is my first post about @RialoHQ, but I'll be sharing more here. Follow me on this study journey. Now, about the project itself… Rialo arrives with a very different proposal. The idea isn't just to be "faster" or have more TPS, as most chains try to do. They are trying to solve a deeper problem: why, even with so much evolution, is Web 3 still not something that ordinary people use in their daily lives? And their answer is quite direct: ▶️ Blockchains still don't communicate well with the real world. Today, everything still seems somewhat disconnected: Complicated apps, difficult onboarding, wallet dependency for everything, unpredictable costs… And in the end, it's restricted to those already inside the bubble. Rialo tries to reverse this. The proposal is simple (in theory, of course): ▶️ Bring the real world into the blockchain ▶️ And take the blockchain to where people already are They call this a “real-world blockchain”. Some ideas that caught my attention: • Smart contracts that can retrieve external data directly via HTTPS • Native integration with APIs (without depending on a thousand intermediaries) • Identity linked to email, SMS, or social networks • Experience more similar to normal apps (Web2) • Less dependence on external infrastructure like oracles and indexers There's an interesting analogy they use: Just as the smartphone brought together various technologies (GPS, internet, camera) and created a new type of experience… ▶️Rialo tries to do this with blockchain. My initial (and honest) impression: The proposal is ambitious, and it makes sense. Because ultimately, the problem with Web3 today isn't just technology… it's experience. But now comes the important part: ▶️This needs to work in practice. And that's exactly what I want to test here. In the next posts I'll cover: • How the architecture works • This "Gauss" thing (which is quite different) • Strengths and potential risks • And of course… whether it's worth following If you also enjoy understanding what's really being built in Web3, stick around. Who else is testing or following Rialo? Comment below what you think or if you've already joined the testnet. #CTBrWeb3 #Testnet
