About Alephium
Alephium is the first layer 1 blockchain that combines innovative technologies such as sharding (technique in which data is divided into smaller parts to increase scalability and efficiency) and stateful UTXO model (model that adds extra data to transactions, allowing smart contracts and other advanced features) with a proof-of-less-work consensus mechanism).
This approach enables scalable and secure decentralized applications (dApps) while reducing energy consumption. Building on the blockchain also offers developers a platform for creating efficient and secure dApps, with opportunities for grants and ecosystem growth.
