ParaState
Create Ethereum-compatible smart contracts using various popular programming languages and execute them at a significantly higher speed on Substrate. This initiative operates under a decentralized, open-source business model that is financed by developer treasuries across participating blockchains. All current Ethereum smart contracts can be seamlessly executed on ParaState’s Ewasm VM (Pallet SSVM) without requiring any modifications. By supporting over 20 programming languages, ParaState enhances the developer ecosystem for creating Ethereum-compatible smart contracts. This includes widely-used languages like Solidity, Fe, Rust, and JavaScript, along with domain-specific languages (DSLs) such as MOVE, DeepSEA, and Marlowe. Substrate-based blockchains, including those within the Polkadot network, already experience a much greater transactions per second (TPS) rate compared to Ethereum. However, for a smart contract platform, the efficiency of compute performance is prioritized over TPS throughput. Experience the advantages by deploying smart contracts on ParaState and witness the enhanced capabilities firsthand.
