Modular infrastructure Lava Network has launched its public mainnet with support from Filecoin Network, Starknet Foundation, and Cosmos Hub today. The launch includes $2 million in incentive pools from supported ecosystems for mainnet participants.

The mainnet debut features the community-first launch of the LAVA token, with an airdrop distribution of 55 million LAVA. This approach aims to increase decentralization and participation, starting with a high initial float and a capped supply.

> “By going with this radically unique approach, the Lava Foundation is encouraging engagement and supporting decentralization,” stated Amir Aaronson, Head of the Lava Foundation.

Lava’s incentive pools attract high-quality infrastructure providers, rewarding them for reliable service. Google Cloud is already operating as an RPC provider on Lava testnet, running 9 nodes and handling millions of Ethereum requests.

> “The true potential of Lava Network lies in our community. This is why we’ve committed to a community-first launch,” emphasized Ethan Luc, Head of Marketing at Lava.

Lava Network is a blockchain infrastructure provider focused on serving quality nodes to different ecosystems, boosting interoperability and network reliance. As reported by Crypto Briefing, the Web3 adoption by the mainstream relies on high-quality nodes that can assure a runtime nearing 100%.

Illia Polosukhin, Co-Founder of NEAR Protocol, commented, “Lava Network’s incentive pools are decentralizing the NEAR RPC layer by creating a competitive market and bringing more providers. This has improved the experience for NEAR app developers and users.
