Deep Dive
1. Purpose and technology
Gravity is a Layer 1 blockchain: its own base network for processing transactions and running applications. It is built to address infrastructure needs such as scalability and interoperability, which means enabling applications and assets to work across different blockchains. Gravity describes its network as offering high throughput and subsecond finality, or quick confirmation of transactions (Gravity).
2. G token’s role
G is Gravity’s native utility token. Users pay network fees with it, and holders can stake it to participate in network security. It also supports governance, allowing token holders to take part in decisions about the network (CoinMarketCap’s Gravity overview).
Conclusion
Gravity is a blockchain infrastructure project, while G is the token used to pay for and participate in its network. Which part of Gravity’s cross-chain functionality would you like to explore next?
