æternity is a vision that is being realized by a global community of builders, convinced in the disruptive potential of scalable, public blockchain networks. From a technological point of view, æternity is a decentralized applications platform build in Erlang by some of the most experienced experts in the Erlang community, including the language's co-creator. æternity scales on-chain thanks to the Bitcoin-NG consensus protocol and off-chain with state channels technology. Unlike other blockchain projects, æternity incorporates a number of essential technological features on Layer 1. Those include oracles (for delivering information to smart contracts), a naming system (enabling token transfers to human-readable names), and state channels. æternity also features a fully-customized and efficient virtual machine - FATE - and a functional smart contract language - Sophia. Its apps are remarkably mobile-and user-friendly. For more info go to: https://aeternity.com
