Chapter 3 · Technical Architecture
The technical stack is organized into four layers. Each layer exposes a narrow, stable interface to the layer above it, so that applications can be built without re-implementing identity, settlement or trust.
3.1 Design principles
- Composability over monoliths. Applications should assemble shared primitives rather than duplicate them.
- Verifiability by default. Identity, asset records and settlements should be checkable by any participant.
- Privacy as a first-class requirement. Data availability and privacy protection must be balanced, not traded off late.
- Compliance embedded, not appended. Authorization and auditability are part of the architecture, not a reporting afterthought.
3.2 The four technical layers
Application access layer
Developer SDKs, API gateways, wallet components and cross-platform access tools lower the barrier for ecosystem applications. The goal is that a developer can integrate identity, payments and data services through a small number of well-documented interfaces.
Intelligent service layer
AI inference services, risk-control engines, smart contract template libraries and oracle networks power upper-layer applications. This layer turns raw on-chain and off-chain data into decisions, alerts and automated actions.
Trusted data layer
Distributed storage, data ownership and authorization protocols, and privacy computing modules ensure trusted data circulation. Data can be shared with defined permissions and verifiable usage records, rather than copied without control.
Blockchain foundation layer
A high-performance consensus network, smart contract engine and cross-chain protocol form the trust foundation. This is where ownership, settlement finality and governance records live.
| Layer | Primary users | What it provides |
|---|---|---|
| Application access | Developers and partners | SDKs, APIs, wallet components, cross-platform tools |
| Intelligent service | Product teams and AI providers | Inference, risk control, contract templates, oracles |
| Trusted data | Data owners and applications | Distributed storage, authorization, privacy computing |
| Blockchain foundation | The whole ecosystem | Consensus, smart contracts, cross-chain messaging, security |
3.3 Key technologies
The following technology directions are central to the design:
- Cross-chain interoperability
- Zero-knowledge proofs and privacy computing
- AI oracle network
- Distributed storage network
- High-performance consensus
- Smart contract security audit
- Verifiable digital identity protocol
3.4 Security and audit
Smart contract security audit is treated as a first-class part of the technical plan. Core contract security audit is one of the Phase 1 milestones, and smart contract security audit is listed among the key technologies that support the trust foundation.
The technical architecture described in this chapter represents planning directions. Specific technology selection, parameters and implementation paths are subject to engineering progress and official technical documentation.
