QuarkChain
QuarkChain is a blockchain infrastructure that utilizes sharding technology to enhance flexibility, scalability, and user-orientation, supporting multi-native tokens, cross-shard transactions, and Ethereum compatibility.
QuarkChain Blockchain Infrastructure
QuarkChain utilizes blockchain sharding technology to enhance flexibility, scalability, and user-orientation. The architecture comprises two layers: the first layer consists of elastic sharding blockchains (shards), while the second layer features a root blockchain. This structure allows for decentralized horizontal scalability, as multiple nodes can form a cluster to replace a super-full node.
QuarkChain Mainnet 2.0 BigBang
The Mainnet 2.0 BigBang by QuarkChain supports multi-native token functions. Notable features include compatibility with Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and support for cross-shard transactions, which can be confirmed in minutes. The speed of these transactions increases linearly with the number of shards.
QuarkChain Ecosystem and Applications
QuarkChain's ecosystem boasts over 70 high-quality projects spanning data and information systems, industrial services, financial services, DApps, platforms, entertainment, and gaming. Additionally, QuarkChain has successfully launched its first mainnet-based NFT and DeFi application, further diversifying its application landscape.
Developer Resources and Community
QuarkChain provides a robust developer environment, including a developer portal, comprehensive documentation, and resources like a mining handbook. The Devnet environment mirrors the mainnet configuration, providing a seamless development experience. The global developer community comprises over 100,000 members, supported through conferences and meetups in countries like China, Singapore, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Thailand, and the United States.
QuarkChain Security and Cross-Shard Transactions
Security in QuarkChain is maintained through a game-theoretic incentive framework, with at least 50% of overall hash power allocated to the root chain. The platform enables cross-shard transactions that can be confirmed rapidly and are designed to improve speed as more shards are added. This configuration supports Ethereum smart contracts and facilitates the migration of existing Ethereum contracts to QuarkChain.
