Inside IRYS: Why Is This Chain So Fast?

Performance First Architecture

   @irys_xyz  is built for performance from the ground up. It introduces a unique two layer ledger architecture the Submit Ledger for temporary writes, and the Publish Ledger for finalized, validated data. This separation allows for high throughput while preserving data integrity.

 Developer Friendly Environment

   The chain runs on a custom built virtual machine called IrysVM, which is fully EVM compatible. That means developers can build using familiar tools like Solidity while benefiting from IRYS’s optimizations.

 Hybrid Consensus Mechanism

   The consensus mechanism is hybrid: combining data-based Proof of Useful Work with staking collateral for economic security. This ensures both computational integrity and financial accountability.

Unmatched Speed and Finality

   In testnet, IRYS demonstrated speeds over XXXXXXX transactions per second with sub second finality. That level of performance positions IRYS far beyond traditional blockchains.

More Than a Blockchain

   IRYS is not just a blockchain  it’s a purpose built system for real time, high volume, programmable data flows, designed for the next generation of onchain applications.
