About Radix

Radix (XRD) is a layer-one smart contract platform designed specifically for decentralized finance applications. Unlike general-purpose blockchains, Radix was built from the ground up to address the security vulnerabilities and scalability limitations that have plagued DeFi ecosystems. Its unique asset-oriented programming environment, Scrypto, reduces developer errors and smart contract exploits by treating tokens as native assets rather than abstractions. Radix also features a purpose-built consensus mechanism called Cerberus, enabling parallel transaction processing. The platform aims to serve as foundational infrastructure for a fully interconnected and secure DeFi economy.
