ConsenSys and Celo Announce a Multi-Faceted Partnership to Drive Real-World Adoption and Use CasesConsenSys, a market-leading blockchain technology company, today announced it has partnered with Celo, the carbon-negative, EVM-compatible layer-1 blockchain built for real-world use cases, to drive mainstream adoption of Web3. ConsenSys taps the 1,000+ mission-driven projects aiming to create the conditions of prosperity for all by integrating its battle-tested Infura infrastructure with the Celo network. Celo also joins ConsenSys' Ethereum Scalability Partners with planned MetaMask compatibility and ConsenSys' newly-announced Ethereum Climate Platform, whose mission is to incentivize and fund the development of real-world Web3 projects to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and deliver positive environmental and social impact. "Celo's mission is well-aligned with ConsenSys in promoting access to Web3 for everyone," says Sharon Byrne Cotter, Product and Program Manager at Infura. "We look forward to this long-term partnership with Celo's expanding ecosystem and integrating with its permissionless, carbon-negative blockchain built for real-world benefits. Celo is an important bridge between our industry and the real world, building trust during these challenging times." Starting today, developers can build on Celo with Infura, benefitting from the infrastructure's reliability, integrity, speed, and scalability. The Infura integration offers convenience and extensive multichain support, with trusted and complementary tooling that seamlessly communicates with the Celo blockchain for rapid deployment and scaling; developers can deploy Ethereum-based dapps with Truffle, use Diligence's security and smart contract audit service, or transact between Celo and other DeFi platforms and dapps with MetaMask. "Celo and ConsenSys share a long view of Web3 and its powerful potential to create real-world impact," says Xochitl Cazador, the Celo Foundation's Head of Ecosystem Growth. "We each support the democratization of wealth and technology. The Celo Foundation and the broader Celo community welcome ConsenSys to our ecosystem, which is building for real-world use cases." Infura users will access Celo's carbon-negative, permissionless, mobile-first blockchain, which offers a wide variety of benefits, including:
This partnership is also marked by Celo joinin ConsenSys' Ethereum Scalability Partners program and the newly announced Ethereum Climate Platform at COP27, joining other key partners such as Allinfra, Aave, Climate Collective, Gitcoin, Microsoft, and Gold Standard to accelerate climate finance at scale.
