What Is a Layer X Blockchain - And Why Novastro Built One

You’ve heard of Layer 1s like Ethereum and Layer 2s like Arbitrum. But Layer X (L3) blockchains? They’re rare - and for good reason: most projects don’t need them. @Novastro_xyz, however, does

HERE'S WHY

LAYER X = BASE SETTLEMENT
Ethereum and similar L1s offer security, decentralization, and global consensus. But they’re expensive and slow for complex apps

LAYER X = SCALABILITY
Rollups like Arbitrum or Optimism help scale L1s by handling execution off-chain, then posting proofs back to Ethereum. Great for general DeFi, but not custom logic-heavy systems

LAYER X = APP-SPECIFIC INFRASTRUCTURE
Novastro uses an L3 model to build a modular ledger purpose-built for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). This allows them to customize compliance, legal metadata, and asset lifecycles - things standard chains don’t support natively

WHY L3 MAKES SENSE FOR NOVASTRO
RWA tokenization requires programmable ownership, audit trails, cross-chain execution, and regulatory alignment - all at once. A general-purpose L1/L2 can’t do that efficiently. With its own L3, Novastro controls execution, fees, interoperability, and compliance logic end-to-end
