Algorand blockchain

Fundamentals of Algorand blockchain

We use Algorand blockchain to facilitate transactions on the DREM marketplace. It is a proof-of-stake zero carbon footprint network with low transaction costs at 0.001 Algos.

The Algorand network offers:

  • Distributed Ledger of escrows holding NFTs, Security tokens, or Algos, which can facilitate financial transactions based on the logic within their contract.

  • Smart Contracts that contain logic which, once deployed, can be remotely called from any node on the Algorand blockchain. The contracts are executed by issuing an ā€œapplication callā€ transaction. The Algorand Virtual Machine evaluates the contract as part of resolving this transaction.

  • Scalable, Fast & Secure execution that is not currently possible on legacy blockchain platforms (e.g. Ethereum). Algorand Smart Contract Layer 1 (ASC1) operates at over 1,000 transactions/sec. ASC1 transactions are final in under 5 seconds.

  • Reduced risk with instant settlement through trustless execution. (You don't have to trust the seller, just the blockchain technology).

  • Low cost to execute any transaction at 0.001 Algos.
