Oasis ROSE / Oasis

What Is Oasis Network?

Oasis is the pioneering layer 1 blockchain designed to enable scalability and confidential compute. Oasis is home to Sapphire, the first confidential EVM that empowers Web3 and Decentralized AI developers to build dApps with Smart Privacy natively on Oasis or other EVM-based chains.

ROSE is the native token of the Oasis Network used for gas fees, staking, delegation and governance. With a unique layered architecture, Oasis presents the optimal building and execution environment for DeFi, AI, GameFi, NFTs, the metaverse, data tokenization and DAO governance. Oasis also has native support for rollups at the consensus layer.

What Makes Oasis Network Unique?

* Smart Privacy

Better dApps require smarter privacy. This is why Oasis focuses on delivering Smart Privacy to Web3 and AI in the form of a flexible, fully customizable confidentiality framework that replaces the rigid, complex and inefficient tools in the status quo. With technologies like the Sapphire runtime and its accompanying Oasis Privacy Layer (OPL) for EVM-based chains, Oasis brings cutting edge confidentiality to any Web3 developer, even ones that don’t build directly on the Oasis Network. For applications running on a separate host chain, OPL allows the powerful privacy features of Sapphire to be integrated on any layer of Web3. By creating a spectrum of confidentiality with unlimited customizability, Oasis is redefining how developers think about integrating privacy and reshaping the toolset available for prioritizing privacy in Web3 and AI.

* Layered Architecture

Architecting the Oasis Network started with a key decision to separate the network’s consensus layer from the compute layer. Oasis provides privacy-preserving computation via runtime environments on the compute layer. A proof-of-stake (PoS) mechanism secures the consensus layer, which acts as a hub for reaching network-wide agreement on transaction ordering, validity and global state. The compute layer, which functions as the execution platform for smart contracts, consists of multiple parallel runtimes (ParaTimes) that are built for specialized computation needs.

This layered approach allows for a dynamic and low-cost deployment of any dApps running on Oasis or using Oasis technology while running on another host network. Each ParaTime plugs into the Oasis consensus layer.
