What makes Cartesi unique?
Cartesi is a new OS. It allows developers to build logic with Linux and standard programming environments. It means moving beyond Solidity and coding smart contracts with rich software tools, libraries and services.
There are key highlights.
The Blockchain OS is a Layer-2 infrastructure that supports Linux and mainstream software components. Developers can code smart contracts with rich software tools, libraries and services for the first time. Virtual machines, optimistic rollups, and side-chains are part of the Blockchain OS. Cartesi provides an over 10,000x increase to computational scalability. TheBlockchain OS allows for more sophisticated applications, which would otherwise be impossible on Layer-1. The use of mainstream languages and tools is possible with the use of the Blockchain OS. Traditional applications with the same level of security guarantees achieved by the underlyingBlockchain are endowed by Cartesi. Currently, all EVM chains are supported by multichain and portable. Privacy is guaranteed from games where players hide their data to enterprise applications that run on sensitive data.
