Tri-layer Architecture

Key Features

PAW Chain is an innovative blockchain architecture designed to enhance the functionality and efficiency of blockchain systems by integrating robust on-chain processes with efficient off-chain mechanisms. The architecture aims to address the common challenges of scalability, speed, and flexibility faced by traditional blockchain solutions.

PAW Chain

       
  • Stake: Links to DAO through a GETH Based Layer Contract Deployment.
  •    
  • Web 3: Connects to the Paw Faucet through the web interface.
  •    
  • Internal Server-side Communication Layer: Facilitates internal server communications to enhance functionality and speed.
  •    
  • Custom Chain for Every Transactions: Supports custom blockchains for specific transactions to optimize performance and scalability.

Applications linked to this architecture include PAW Bridge, PAW Scan, PAW Wallet, PAW Swap, and Validator Dashboard which facilitate various operations within the PAW ecosystem.

PAW Chain's Tri-layer Architecture Offers Several Advantages Over Conventional Blockchain Systems:

       
  • Scalability: By offloading high-frequency transactions to Layer 3, PAW Chain can handle a larger volume of transactions without compromising performance.
  •    
  • Speed: The separation of layers allows for faster transaction processing and reduced latency, enhancing the overall user experience.
  •    
  • Flexibility: The modular design of the tri-layer architecture provides the flexibility to integrate with various off-chain processes, making it adaptable to different use cases.

In summary, PAW Chain represents a significant advancement in blockchain technology, combining the strengths of traditional blockchain systems with innovative off-chain solutions to deliver a scalable, fast, and flexible platform for the future.

Layer 1

This foundational layer is based on the Geth implementation of the Ethereum blockchain, providing a secure and robust base for transactions and smart contracts.

Layer 1 simplifies contract deployment onto our Layer 3.

The upcoming upgrade to PAW Swap's Layer 1 with the introduction of PawJS marks a significant milestone in the evolution of the PAW Chain network. By offering a simpler, more intuitive scripting contract language, PawJS aims to democratize smart contract development, enhance security, and boost overall network efficiency. This strategic move not only strengthens the foundation of PAW Chain but also paves the way for a more vibrant and innovative blockchain ecosystem.

Layer 2

Serving as an internal server-side communication layer, Layer 2 seamlessly connects Layer 1 and Layer 3. It facilitates efficient data transfer and process coordination between the on-chain and off-chain components.

Additionally, every contract within this layer must implement name, owner, and decimal functions to ensure consistent identification, ownership management, and precision handling.

Layer 3

The newly developed chain layer functions similarly to an off-chain ledger. This layer is designed to handle high-frequency transactions and complex computations, offloading these tasks from the main blockchain to ensure faster processing times and reduced congestion.

PAW Chain Transaction Fee Structure

The PAW Chain transaction fee for all token transfers is structured as followed:

PAW Coin transactions are always free
Less than $100 fee = $1
$100 < to < $1000  fee = $5
$1000 < to < $10,000 fee = $10
$10,000 < to $1,000,000 fee = $25
$1,000,000 over fee = $50
