Cypherium is a layer‑1 blockchain that combines Proof‑of‑Work security with a HotStuff‑based Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus (CypherBFT) to deliver sub‑second finality, high throughput, and permissionless decentralization. The platform is fully EVM‑compatible, enabling developers to migrate Solidity contracts unchanged, and is optimized for tokenizing and transacting real‑world assets at scale for financial institutions and central banks.

Problem
Existing public blockchains often struggle to provide the throughput, finality, and regulatory compliance required for tokenizing and transacting real-world assets at scale, limiting adoption by financial institutions and central banks.
Solution
Cypherium delivers a layer‑1 blockchain that combines Proof‑of‑Work security with a HotStuff‑based Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus called CypherBFT. This hybrid approach yields instant transaction finality, high throughput, and strong decentralization while keeping energy consumption comparable to traditional PoW networks. The platform is fully EVM‑compatible, allowing developers to migrate existing Solidity contracts without modification. By supporting permissionless validator committees that rotate and remain anonymous, Cypherium ensures both security and scalability for large‑volume asset transfers. The network is designed to bridge centralized finance (CeFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi), enabling institutions to issue, trade, and settle tokenized real‑world assets (RWA) directly on‑chain.
Target Audience
Primary customers are financial institutions, central banks, and enterprise developers seeking a secure, scalable blockchain for tokenizing and transacting real‑world assets.
