Sharding, without the headaches.
PoW, without the energy drain.
Smart contracts, without the exploits.
If Ethereum and Bitcoin had a child, that would be @alephium.
[Product Report] ↓
Alephium isn’t rewriting history. It’s rewriting base-layer assumptions on energy, throughput, and how smart contracts should work on PoW.
→ PoW, but 87% less energy.
→ Sharding, but without cross-chain mess.
→ Smart contracts, but UTXO-secured.
Most chains scale by mimicking Ethereum, but @alephium scales by asking a simpler question:
Can Bitcoin’s UTXO model be made programmable without losing what made it secure to begin with?
And the benefits ripple outward:
→ Devs get modularity without global-state fragility.
→ Users get asset safety without revoke rituals.
→ Builders get parallelism without fragmentation.
→ Miners get scale without heavier nodes.
UTXOs secured the execution layer, but what about the consensus layer?
@alephium didn’t switch to staking; instead, it reduced PoW’s energy cost by 87% without changing the trust model.
They call it Proof-of-Less-Work.
