ℹ️ Overview of the Alephium Network
Alephium is a scalable, secure, and energy-efficient blockchain designed for real-world applications. It introduces BlockFlow, a sharding algorithm that enhances Bitcoin’s UTXO model, achieving scalability with up to 10,000 transactions per second (currently over 400 TPS). Its stateful UTXO model combines Ethereum-like programmability with Bitcoin-level security.
Powered by Proof of Less Work (PoLW), Alephium reduces energy usage to 1/8 of Bitcoin’s, ensuring sustainability. It features the Alphred virtual machine for secure and efficient dApps and Ralph, a Rust-inspired programming language optimized for DeFi.
Alephium bridges scalability, security, and energy efficiency to deliver next-generation decentralized applications.
