I have been in this industry for quite some time. And what I don't like to see is a huge number of blockchain coming in creating their blockchain claiming that their TPS is higher and more secure. But the idea and the concept is almost the same, do we need a lot of this to heated up the competition? I don't think so as there is another solution that is much better than this.
Most of them focus on creating their own chain or what they called Layer 1 solution. But this project that I've been found is different, their solution is outside the blockchain or what they called off-chain, in this way they can merge in any blockchain they want. And the project that will be using this solution is called Cartesi.
Where does Cartesi name come from?
It comes from the famous Philosopher Descartes which believes that mind and body are two different things but they
interact coherently in each human being. That same goes with Cartesi, the Consensus layer and computational layer must work coherently with each other. If it doesn't work well then the balance is off and might bring a problem.
What is Cartesi?
Cartesi provides a Linux runtime environment for scalable blockchain DApps. Cartesi is the ability to have typical real-world computations running off-chain on a Linux environment, in a way that's verifiable by the blockchain. The best advantage of DApps that will be using Cartesi is that they are more powerful and easier to build. And since they are using Layer 2 solution they can be ported over to a variety of blockchains. And don't forget that they are using Linux
infrastructure, it means DApp developers already have so many software infrastructures available.
What problems does Cartesi want to solve?
- Poor scalability - we all knew the scalability problems of DApps are that they aren't ready to become mainstream.
But with Cartesi, this can be solved cause they will rely on PoS protocols to provide side-chain optimized for high throughput and temporary data storage for DApps. - Inefficient Computation - Cartesi increases computation throughput means that it’s possible to run many more microprocessor instructions (program steps) per unit of time than could be conceivable on-chain.
Conclusion
Cartesi's layer 2 solution on a Linux runtime development will be really a game-changer whether its DeFi, Gaming, Research, Logistics, software, healthcare, optimization, etc. As they continue to connect on multiple blockchains, DApp developers can easily connect their DApps to whichever blockchain they want. Cartesi's team is composed of highly experienced developers with great backgrounds and their advisors are respective and famous in their field. They are backed by some huge partners like SNZ holding, artesian, wings, Taiwan tech and many more. I'm pretty sure they will become successful in making this idea into a reality.
