Overview
FANTOM is the world’s first Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) based Smart Contract platform that solves the issue of scalability and confirmation time of the existing blockchain technology. FANTOM uses OPERA Chain (processes a list of events asynchronously with no rights to modify previous confirmed transactions), Lachesis Protocol (transactions are confirmed with a DAG) and Story Data (transaction and smart contract function may store a piece of data for tracking and supply-chain management). It has the following features:
- Instant Payment/Settlements - Asynchronously with instant confirmation
- Near Zero Cost - Less than 0.01 USD
- Infinite Scalability - Capability increases as more nodes participate
- Open-sourced - Transparent
- 300,000 TPS
FANTOM can be used on a large scale in various industry verticals, such as telecommunication, finance, logistics, electric vehicle provision and others. The FANTOM Foundation aims to create the FANTOM platform along with a new Smart Contract-based ecosystem that can be used by all current and future partner companies around the world. To facilitate consistent global transactions with high accuracy and reliability, the FANTOM Foundation will lead the next generation of distributed ledger technologies.
The platform aims to be open-source: used and changed by the community, and will provide various application support tools that can be used to create decentralized application services (dApps). Furthermore, they aim to facilitate the ecosystem and contribute to making a more transparent and impartial society by creating a reward-based token economy.
