SCALE IS SECURITY

Proof of performance

A Blockchain that grows as demand grows

In the Litheum blockchain ecosystem, runners are incentivized to deploy hardware specifically tailored for a high-capacity blockchain. This is achieved by simply incentivizing the runners to process transactions, to do the things a blockchain does. PoP corrects the incentives and leaves the technical complexities to the experts like sysadmins, network architects, and hardware engineers.

Blockchains do more than make blocks

Making Blocks is not the only function a blockchain needs. Wallets, DApps, and every other node in the network all need to be able to read data from the network.

Critical RPCs include things like getting balances, sharing blocks, synchronizing wallets, finding peers, and reading smart contract data.

Only Litheum’s Proof of Performance (PoP) provides True Decentralization, the incentivization of every critical Remote Procedure Call (RPC),that allows it to scale safely.

New Incentives

Consider this: Bitcoin operates on an estimated $100 billion worth of mining hardware and there is $50 billion of ETH staked by validators. Yet, a modern CPU, which costs a few hundred dollars, can validate 10,000 signatures per second on just a single core. With such capabilities, even a highly decentralized blockchain should be able to handle significantly more data.

If miners are investing billions in specialized ASICs, could a shift in incentives instead lead to investment in more useful resources like fiber optics, memory, and CPUs?
