What is Cartesi?
Cartesi is an off-chain decentralised computation platform that lets developers build complex applications using the programming languages and software they already work with. It was created to get around a well-known limit of blockchains, that heavy processing on-chain is slow and expensive, and it does this by moving that processing off-chain while keeping it verifiable.
The way it works is a bridge between ordinary computing and blockchain. Cartesi provides a Linux runtime, so developers can draw on decades of existing tools and libraries rather than learning blockchain-specific languages. Complex work runs off-chain, and blockchain consensus is still used to confirm that the results are correct.
The CTSI token powers this network and its governance. On Digital Surge you can buy and hold Cartesi in AUD, keep it in your account, or withdraw it to a compatible wallet you control.
