WHY HOTSTUFF?

REAL-TIME SETTLEMENT

200k+ TPS at 75ms block time. Deterministic two-round finality at 150ms. Fast enough to run institutional trading infrastructure entirely on-chain.

CONFIDENTIAL BY DESIGN

Privacy-preserving architecture built into the protocol layer. Your trading strategies remain yours.

BEYOND CONSENSUS

Validators do more than produce blocks. DracoBFT side-loops let them route payments, verify APIs, and run fiat rails parallel to consensus. Financial infrastructure at the protocol layer.

BUILT FOR EVERYONE

Perps, spot, options, lending, and on-chain liquidations. A full financial stack that keeps stacking primitives.
