About Everscale

Everscale's architecture demonstrates that when software algorithms are implemented alongside a blockchain's infrastructure, the software itself ceases to be a performance bottleneck, thereby allowing transaction throughput to scale in direct proportion to network bandwidth. As such, Everscale’s architecture satisfies the three fundamental properties of a blockchain, scalability, security and decentralization. At Everscale we are demonstrating that distributed systems research is applicable to blockchain. Furthermore, and much to our surprise, it can be implemented using a mechanism that has been part of Bitcoin since day one which can be used to postdate transactions using block height instead of a timestamp. To achieve high network performance, you need reliable servers with fast connections. At the same time, in order to achieve sufficient decentralization, these servers should be owned by as many owners as possible.
