The foundation layer behind all InterLink Mini-Apps

The InterLink Chain stands as the architectural cornerstone of the InterLink ecosystem, providing a high-performance, scalable platform that underpins the development and deployment of decentralized applications (dApps), notably the InterLink Mini-Apps. Designed with developer accessibility in mind, the chain supports Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible smart contracts. This compatibility allows developers versed in Ethereum’s toolchain—such as Solidity and Truffle—to seamlessly transition to InterLink, accelerating the creation of innovative applications without requiring a steep learning curve.

Performance is a hallmark of the InterLink Chain, with a target throughput of 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) and a finality time of just 2 seconds. These metrics are achieved through a combination of an optimized consensus mechanism and a sharded network architecture, which distributes transaction processing across multiple nodes to maximize efficiency. Unlike many blockchains that struggle with congestion during peak usage, the InterLink Chain’s design ensures that users experience minimal latency, making it an ideal foundation for real-time, user-facing applications.

The InterLink Software Development Kit (SDK) amplifies this foundation by equipping developers with a rich suite of tools to craft InterLink Mini-Apps—lightweight, modular dApps tailored to leverage the chain’s unique attributes. A standout feature is the integration of verified human identity, courtesy of InterLink ID. This enables mini-apps to embed trust and authenticity into their core functionality. For example, a decentralized social platform could use identity verification to eliminate fake profiles, while a peer-to-peer marketplace could reduce fraud by ensuring all traders are verified humans. These capabilities unlock new paradigms of interaction that generic blockchains, lacking native identity layers, cannot replicate.

The mini-apps themselves are engineered for agility, supporting rapid deployment and iterative updates to meet evolving user demands. The chain’s high throughput and fast finality ensure that these applications scale effortlessly, even as adoption grows. By blending EVM compatibility, exceptional performance, and identity-driven innovation, the InterLink Chain establishes itself as the definitive platform for the next wave of human-centric decentralized applications.
