About
Arch Network is a bridgeless execution platform designed to enhance Bitcoin's capabilities by enabling fast, secure, and fully verifiable smart contract-like programs directly on the Bitcoin base layer. Unlike Layer 2 solutions that require asset bridging and can fragment liquidity, Arch allows developers to deploy interoperable applications without compromising Bitcoin's inherent security and liquidity.
Key Features
-
Bitcoin-Native Programmability
Arch introduces Turing-complete programmability to Bitcoin without the need for bridges or sidechains, allowing developers to build complex applications directly on the Bitcoin network. -
Specialized Virtual Machine (Arch VM)
The Arch VM handles state changes and complex off-chain computations, enabling efficient execution of smart contract-like programs while preserving Bitcoin’s security model. -
Decentralized Verifier Network
Arch employs a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) verifier network that decentralizes and incentivizes infrastructure and security, ensuring trustless execution of programs. -
FROST + ROAST Multisig Architecture
By leveraging advanced multisignature schemes, Arch ensures that actions are executed only with approval from a majority of decentralized verifiers—enhancing security and conditional execution. -
Developer-Friendly Environment
Arch provides comprehensive documentation, development tools, and support, making it easy for developers to build and deploy applications on Bitcoin.
