Chain Structure: Multi-VM under One Consensus

At the core of Arichain lies its X-BFT Consensus Layer — an advanced Byzantine Fault Tolerant protocol designed for multi-VM coordination.

Features:

  • Unified Block Production: A single block contains transactions from multiple VMs.

  • Parallel Validation: EVM and SVM transactions can be validated concurrently where dependencies allow.

  • Optimized Mempool Management: Separate mempools for each VM enable efficient transaction sorting and scheduling.

  • Cross-VM Routing: Transactions are dynamically routed to the appropriate VM based on their target smart contract or program.

  • Unified Fee Market: A single native token ($ARI) governs all transaction fees, with VM-specific gas metering.

The consensus layer guarantees:

  • Security: Finality and state integrity across all VMs.

  • Scalability: Parallel transaction execution increases throughput without compromising consistency.

  • Simplicity: Developers and users experience a single chain, even though multiple VMs operate underneath.

In essence, Arichain abstracts the complexity of multiple VMs, delivering a unified blockchain experience while maintaining the specialized benefits of each execution environment.
