Taraxa is an EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain with blockDAG architecture and t-Graph consensus.
What is Taraxa?
Taraxa is an EVM-compatible smart contract platform that utilizes a blockDAG architecture combined with a Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism to enhance scalability, security, and decentralization. Founded by two Stanford Engineers in 2018, Taraxa launched its mainnet on April 3, 2023 and features world-first innovations including the first native EVM integration in blockDAG, the first PoS blockDAG, and the first dynamic blockDAG proposal rate. This design enables high transaction throughput and true finality without compromising network security or decentralization. Taraxa's community has been building DeFi and social analytics dApps, while the development team continues to drive adoption and build infrastructure such as cross-chain bridging.
