FAQ

What is Imua?

+

Imua is the universal protocol for shared security. Implemented as a purpose-built L1 network, Imua aggregates economic security from multiple blockchains via re/staking and extends it to any off-chain system for verifiable trust.

What is verifiable trust?

+

Verifiable trust is a statement or claim that is backed by objective proof. In the case of Imua that objective proof comes via shared security. Shared security enables builders to use economic incentives and cryptographic guarantees to verify actions and outputs, extending on-chain security to the off-chain world.

Is Imua EVM compatible?

+

Yes. For EVM compatibility, Imua uses a modified implementation of EVMOS. This allows developers to use most of their Ethereum toolchain for buillding services.

Can I apply with an existing project or team?

+

Yes. You can apply with an existing codebase, team, or company—as long as you're actively building.

Do I need a fully formed product or MVP?

+

No. Although projects with an MVP or more may have a higher chance of success, you only need a clear idea, technical understanding, and demonstrated ability (via Github or live links) to ship to apply. If you don't have a working product or MVP then, we’ll work closely with you to design, integrate and launch your idea over the 5-week program.

Is this a remote or in-person program?

+

Fully remote. You can participate from anywhere. There may be optional IRL meetups or demo day events, but core programming is online.

What can I build?

+

DeFi platforms, AI agents, AI networks, stablecoins, ZK networks, bridges, oracles, games, sidechains, prediction markets, and more. Imua is the universal protocol for shared security, which means that it can support a variety of use cases. Have an idea and want to chat about it first?
