ARTIS 1.0 will be stopped in April 2022. {% endhint %} ### Technical Base Layer | | ARTIS 1.0 (ARTIS ∑1) | ARTIS 2.0 (ARTIS ∑2) | | ------------------------------ | --------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 1: Compatibility with Ethereum | 100% | 100% | | 2: Chain Type | Sisterchain (ATS\*) | Sidechain (sEUR) | | 3: Token Structure | Single token (ATS\*) | Dual token (sEUR \| ATS) | | 4: Interoperability | TokenBridge | TokenBridge + OmniBridge | | 5: Staking | PoS for Validators | Public dPoS (POSDAO) | | 6: Staking Token | ATS\* (not listed) | ATS | | 7: Mainnet Launch | Nov. 14, 2018 | Q3/2021 (plan) | | 8: Block Time | 5 sec. | 1-2 sec. (typically) | | 9: TPS | 135 (standard transactions) | 450 (reported) | | 10: Metatransactions | Yes | Yes | | 11: Randomness | not available | Within the protocol | | 12: Consensus | AuRa | HBBFT ([more details](/about/r-and-d/honeybadger-bft-testing-sonnwende+-project.md#honey-badger-bft-performance-tests)) | | 13: Censorship Resistant | No | Yes | | 14: Transaction Finality | Probabilistic | Instant | | 15: MEV | possible | unlikely / impossible | | 16: Network Synchrony | Synchronous / Asynchronous | Asynchronous | | 17: Transaction Fees | in ATS\* | in sEUR (0-10 Gwei) | | 18: Streaming Money | not available | Within the protocol | ARTIS 2.0 is similar to the xDai Chain and uses the sEUR token from [Synthetix](https://www.synthetix.io/) as its coin and for payments on the network. The use of a stable coin like sEUR has the advantage of a better predictability of transaction fees calculated in Euro. The outstanding technical difference to other blockchain systems is the use of the fully asynchronous [Honey Badger BFT consensus](/about/r-and-d/honeybadger-bft-testing-sonnwende+-project.md) and the native support of streaming money using the [Superfluid protocol](https://www.superfluid.finance/). Security for ARTIS 2.0 will be delivered via the ATS token, which has to be staked by Candidates / Validators and is also used by Delegators in the dPOS like POSDAO system. ### Operation & Governance Transaction fees will be **zero** for whitelisted applications and otherwise will be paid in sEUR in order to make cost predictable for businesses. | | ARTIS 1.0 (ARTIS ∑1) | ARTIS 2.0 (ARTIS ∑2) | | -------------------------- | -------------------- | ---------------------- | | Number of Validators nodes | 8 | 19 | | Number of Candidate nodes | n.a. | 100 (max.) | | Governance through | Validators | ARTIS DAO (gATS token) | ### Tokenomics The total token supply for ARTIS 2.0 will be defined by the migration of ATS\* coming from ARTIS 1.0 via the xDai Chain enabled for 1 year. The migration is described here. | | ARTIS 1.0 (ARTIS ∑1) | ARTIS 2.0 (ARTIS ∑2) | | --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- | | Total Supply | 300m ATS\* + 6,307,200 ATS\* yearly block rewards | 300,000,000 ATS (capped) | | Circulating Supply | 311,790,000 ATS\* (Oct. 11, 2020) | 90,000,000 ATS (estimated for the start in Q3/2021) | | Emission | 1 ATS\* / block | via EasyStaking and PoS + dPoS Rewards (details to be defined) | | Inflation | 2.1% p.a | 0% (planned deflation) | | Validator / Delegator Stake | 4.5m ATS\* Validator | TBD | | Staking Reward | about 15% p.a | TBD |
