CIC Documentation

What is CIC?

CIC blockchain is a fast, scalable, and secure blockchain platform uses BFT consensus.

CIC blockchain is:

• decentralized

• open-source

• user friendly

• Hybrid: permissions managed by DAO.

Key features

Speed

CIC blockchain achieves transactions finality in 5 second on average, and 60 seconds if no transactions are occuring.

Scalability

CIC blockchain can process thousands of transactions per seconds and can scale to hundreds of nodes.

Permissioned

Enterprise grade security using on-chain permissions enforced by smart contracts.

Security

CIC provides institutional-grade security to distributed networks. CIC blockchain offers absolute finality, which means that transactions can never be reverted like in networks with probabilistic finality. CIC blockchain is also leaderless. By removing leaders, security doesn’t rely on a small set of actors.

Smart contract support

CIC blockchain is fully compatible with Ethereum. Developers can create and deploy smart contracts as they would on Ethereum.

Blockchain-as-a-service

CIC can be used to create any kind of private and public distributed ledger, using EVM or Cosmos SDK.

Blockchain for the masses

CIC blockchain is a platform to creating blockchain networks, both isolated and sidechains, with an easy to use user interface.
