Meta Earth's Modular Breakthrough: 98% Lower Costs, Universal Income Drive Inclusive Web3

.>

Meta Earth, a modular blockchain platform integrated with a decentralized identity system, has solidified its position as a leading force in Web3 innovation with the launch of ME Network 2.0. Unveiled at Token2049 Singapore in October 2025, the upgrade introduces a three-layer architecture-execution (RollApp), settlement (ME-Hub), and data availability (ME-DA)-to deliver unprecedented scalability and interoperability. By decoupling these layers, Meta Earth slashes storage costs by 98% through data availability sampling and 2D erasure coding while reducing gas fees by 90% via zero-knowledge proof compression Meta Earth Launches ME Network 2.0 to Scale Web3 & Rewards^[2].
