EVM Layer

The EVM layer is part of the Realith blockchain as an embedded compatibility and execution layer.

What it provides

The EVM layer provides compatibility with already existing:

  • contract templates;
  • wallets and wallet interfaces;
  • RPC tools;
  • indexers and observation tools;
  • integration paths expected by the external environment.

This makes Realith practically connectable to an already formed ecosystem of tools.

What it does not do

The EVM layer must not define:

  • what counts as an object in the network;
  • which structure is admissible;
  • which structure properties affect object behavior;
  • which state is recognized as canonical;
  • which transition is admissible in the meaning of Realith.

All these things belong to the internal object canon.

  • object canon defines the internal meaning of the network;
  • network canon fixes admissible transitions and outcomes;
  • the EVM layer provides a compatible execution and integration surface (Execution Surface).
