Portal OS
Portal OS coordinator performs cross chain messaging and coordination.
Portal DEX is based on layer two cross chain atomic swaps developed by Portal. Instead of using layer one swaps that are slow, and expensive, Portal DEX uses layer two contracts on both Bitcoin and Ethereum to provide speed and low transaction fees.
A daemon that maintains a decentralized order book, and other associated services (liquidity for lightning channels, etc.). Performs cross-blockchain message passing between chains
Every PortalOS node comes with a State Chain Module, anyone wishing to participate in being a Validator can run the Validator Module. Validator Module also periodically enables validators/node runners to participate in next round Validator election.
PortalOS uses highly customized AMMs on each chain to enable an Omnichain AMM. Together, the AMMs form what we call a Multi Chain Layer-2 AMM or MC-LAMM for short.
Portal contracts on Bitcoin are Multi Party Hash Time Lock Contracts (MP-HTLCs) whose spendable outputs can be exchanged against by Traders, across chains.
LPs stake native assets to earn rewards while facilitating timely settlement of swaps.
Our goal is to create a web scale, serverless, peer-to-peer infrastructure and ecosystem with strong privacy and security guarantees, utilizing Bitcoin as the settlement layer.
