Key Features

1. Consensus Mechanism | Utilizes a hybrid of Proof of Work (PoW) and a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) structure, enhancing scalability and transaction throughput with a "Weighted Graph Ledger (WGL)".

2. Security Features | Employs advanced cryptographic techniques and robust hashing algorithms. Special emphasis on preventing common threats like 51% and double-spending attacks.

3. Smart Contract Capabilities | Supports Solidity and is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), facilitating easy migration of dApps from Ethereum.

4. Innovations | Unique block weight system and DAG-based ledger structure for improved scalability and throughput.

5. Privacy with Zero-Knowledge (ZK) Proofs | Integration of ZK Proofs in Phase D enhances transaction privacy and confidentiality, allowing for validation without exposing transaction data​​.

Core Components

1. Weighted Ledger Selection Rule (WLSR) | Balances throughput and security with a dynamic block weighting mechanism.

2. DAG-Embedded Tree Structure (DETS) | Improves ledger security and throughput, enabling blocks to reference multiple predecessors.

3. Consensus Process | Efficient DAG structure and WLSR for rapid block production, ensuring consistent transaction ordering and double-spending prevention.

4. EVM Integration: Incorporates an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) environment to facilitate the deployment and execution of smart contracts written in Solidity, ensuring compatibility and flexibility.

5. ZK-STARKs for Enhanced Privacy | The implementation of ZK-STARKs significantly enhances security and privacy within the blockchain.
