Gravity is a Layer-1 blockchain designed for mass adoption and an omnichain future. It serves as an omnichain settlement layer built to manage complex cross-chain interactions with minimal friction.
Gravity employs advanced technologies like Zero-Knowledge Proofs and a staking-powered architecture, alongside a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism bolstered by native staking protocols. It integrates high-performance algorithms like Reth and Jolteon for fast execution and is fully EVM-compatible for smart contract deployment.
Gravity's potential use cases include enabling cross-chain transactions, smart contract development, high-performance applications, balance abstraction with yield, and intent-based transactions. It's applicable in sectors like Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and Web3 development, with integrations like OKX Wallet.
Gravity was developed by Galxe and announced on May 29, 2024, as a blockchain solution for mass adoption and cross-chain capabilities. While specific founding team details are sparse, the project has achieved milestones such as the release of its litepaper and recognition for addressing blockchain scalability challenges.
