Gravity Alpha

Gravity Alpha is a high-performance, EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain developed by Galxe. It is designed for mass adoption and an omnichain future, offering 1 gigagas per second throughput, sub-second finality, and restaking-powered Proof-of-Stake (PoS) security. At its core, Gravity Alpha utilizes the Gravity SDK and Gravity reth to empower Web3 applications to launch their own optimized L1s and faster-finality L2s.

Gravity Alpha offers high throughput of 1 gigagas per second, sub-second finality, and robust security through restaking-powered PoS. It employs a pipelined architecture, state-of-the-art consensus algorithms, parallel execution, and a highly optimized storage layer. These features collectively enhance scalability, security, and user experience within the blockchain ecosystem.

Gravity Alpha enhances security through its restaking-powered PoS mechanism, integrating protocols like EigenLayer and Babylon. This approach leverages the staked value and validator networks of established blockchains such as Ethereum and Bitcoin, providing a secure foundation for PoS consensus and effectively addressing challenges like long-range attacks and sustainability.

G is the native utility token of the Gravity ecosystem. It serves multiple functions, including governance participation, staking to secure the network, paying transaction fees, and facilitating various operations within the Gravity and Galxe ecosystems.

Developers can build on Gravity Alpha by leveraging its EVM compatibility to deploy smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). The Gravity SDK and Grevm (Gravity EVM) provide a flexible framework for creating high-performance applications. Comprehensive documentation and resources are available to support development and integration within the Gravity ecosystem.
