Cartesi

About

Cartesi is a layer-2 solution designed to enhance the scalability and decentralization of blockchain applications. It allows developers to build complex decentralized applications (dApps) using familiar programming languages and tools, bypassing the limitations of traditional blockchain platforms. Cartesi integrates a Linux operating system with blockchain infrastructure, enabling the use of mainstream software stacks for dApp development. The platform uses Optimistic Rollups and the Cartesi Machine Emulator to perform off-chain computations, reducing the load on the blockchain base layer. This approach ensures efficient dispute resolution and scalability, making it suitable for complex applications. Cartesi supports multiple blockchain networks, offering a versatile and developer-friendly environment for creating scalable dApps.
