ERGO

ERGO TECHNOLOGY

Advanced blockchain infrastructure for scalable DeFi, secure smart contracts, and true decentralization.

Extended UTXO Model
Core Protocol

Parallel smart contracts with enhanced security

Parallel Execution

Process multiple transactions simultaneously without state conflicts

Native Composability

Build complex DeFi from simple, reusable contract pieces

MEV Resistance

eUTXO and local ordering reduce common front-running and sandwich-MEV patterns. Not an absolute guarantee — MEV-like behaviour can still emerge in mempool, oracle or dApp design.

ErgoScript
Core Protocol

Safe smart contracts with formal verification

Formal Verification

Mathematically provable contract correctness

Built-in Privacy

Native Sigma protocols for zero-knowledge proofs

Type Safety

Strong typing prevents common vulnerabilities

Autolykos Proof-of-Work
Core Protocol

ASIC-resistant GPU mining for decentralization

Energy Efficient

Optimized for consumer GPUs with lower power consumption

Solo Mining Friendly

Algorithm design reduces pool centralization pressure

ASIC Resistant

Memory-hard design keeps mining accessible to everyone

Storage Rent
Economics

Long-term sustainability through state recycling

State Sustainability

Prevents unlimited blockchain growth and state bloat

Miner Revenue

Ensures mining rewards continue after emission ends

Lost Coin Recovery

Recirculates dormant coins back into the economy

Sigma Protocols
Privacy

Optional privacy with zero-knowledge proofs

Optional Privacy

Choose when and how much privacy you need

Zero-Knowledge Proofs

Prove statements without revealing underlying data

Ring Signatures

Hide transaction origins among multiple signers

NIPoPoWs
Interoperability

Light clients and trustless bridges

Instant Mobile Sync

Verify blockchain in seconds, not hours

Trustless Bridges

Cross-chain communication without trusted intermediaries

Cryptographic Security

Mathematical proofs, not trust assumptions

Subblocks
Research
Scalability

Sub-second confirmations on Layer 1

Sub-Second Confirmations

Near-instant transaction feedback for better UX

Layer-1 Security

No trusted sequencers or additional trust assumptions

Seamless Integration

Works with existing contracts and infrastructure

Native Tokens & NFTs
Core Protocol

One-click token and NFT creation

One-Click Creation

Issue tokens in a single transaction, no contract needed

DeFi Ready

Instantly compatible with all Ergo DeFi protocols

True Native Assets

Protocol-level support, not smart contract workarounds

Oracle Pools
Core Protocol

Decentralized on-chain data feeds

Reliable Price Feeds

Aggregated data from multiple independent sources

Protocol Native

Built into Ergo, not a third-party add-on

Fully Decentralized

No single point of failure or manipulation

Velvet Forks
Interoperability

Seamless protocol upgrades

Backward Compatible

Old nodes continue working during upgrades

Future Proof

Add new consensus rules without disruption

Gradual Adoption

Network upgrades happen organically over time

Adaptive Emission
Economics

Community-governed monetary policy

Parameter Tuning

Adjust emission and economic parameters over time

Economic Flexibility

Respond to changing market conditions

Community Input

Governance-driven monetary policy decisions

Babel Fees
Core Protocol

Pay fees with any token

Token Flexibility

Use any token to pay transaction fees

Automated Exchange

Intermediaries handle ERG conversion automatically

Seamless UX

No need to hold ERG for transactions

Ergo 上的eUTXO 与账户模型有何不同？
eUTXO 将区块链状态分割成独立的框(输出)，启用并行智能合约而无需全局状态并降低再输入风险。 应用程式变得可以组合：简单的输出可以生成复杂的逻辑。
什么是 ErgoScript 和它为什么是安全的？
ErgoScript 是可编程资金的合同语言，带有正式可核查的代码、严格的打字和内置的加密原始材料。 合同是可审计和可预测的——设计可以避免全球变异状态和典型的再输入模式。
为什么Autolykos被认为是分散的和节能的？
Autolykos是难于记忆和反卫星的，使它对普通矿工是公平的。 它奖励单矿开采并减少对池的依赖，保持网络安全，并且适度使用能源。
什么是存储租金，为什么重要？
储存租金是一种状态回收机制，在这种机制中，未动用硬币开始支付租金。 这阻碍了区块链的无限增长，并确保矿工即使在排放结束之后也能赚取收入。
哪些隐私和多功能被建立在里面？
Sigma 协议提供了本机零知识证明，环形签名，多重签名/阈值计划，以及没有外部黑客的私人付款。这简化了构建保密dApp。
NIPPoWs 启用了什么？
NIPoPoWs 创建小区块链防护，使轻型客户端、即时移动同步以及没有全节点的无信任的跨链桥。
Oracle 库是如何不同于传统的oracl？
Oracle 池是没有中央运营商的协议式可编译数据源——没有任何一个贿赂或故障点，它们可以插入任何合同。
什么是子块，为什么使用它们？
子块将块拆分成快速子块以便在没有信任的序列器的情况下加快支付和dApp 确认。这提供了更快感知的层-1缩放。
我可以在没有智能合约的情况下签发令牌和 NFT？
是-发行本机在协议层，在单笔交易中。真正的本地资产可以立即使用 dApp。
