The launch of Planck Layer 1 (Planck₁) utilizes the following core technologies, specifically designed to support artificial intelligence (AI) and Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN):
⚙️ Main Technology Planck₁
* Modular Architecture (Two-Layer Architecture): Planck₁ is the Execution Layer that operates within a coordinated two-layer system with Planck₀ (Layer-0).
* Planck₀ (Layer-0): Functions as the coordination layer. It manages security, cross-chain messaging, and shared validator pools for the entire AI and DePIN ecosystem.
* Planck₁ (Layer-1): It is an Execution Layer optimized for GPU. This is a smart contract chain that runs AI workloads on-chain and is natively integrated with decentralized computing resources (GPU).
* EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) Compatibility: Planck₁ is a Layer-1 chain compatible with EVM. This allows developers familiar with the Ethereum ecosystem to build and deploy AI applications on Planck₁ using smart contracts.
* GPU Native Optimization: Unlike the common L1, Planck₁ is specifically built to run AI workloads such as model training, inference, and fine-tuning directly through smart contracts. It is connected to a high-quality decentralized GPU network (enterprise-grade).
* Tokenized Compute Economy: Planck uses a model where $PLANCK, its utility token, facilitates access to decentralized GPU resources, staking, and governance. This creates a verified and on-chain compute economy.
* Cross-Chain Interoperability (Planck Tunnel): Planck has a native interoperability layer called Planck Tunnel (supported by VIA Labs). This allows seamless asset transfer and application logic between Planck₁ and other major blockchain ecosystems (such as Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, and Cosmos).
In short, Planck₁ is a Layer-1 built with a focus on AI and DePIN, using a modular design optimized for GPU and compatible with EVM, and supported by Layer-0 (Planck₀) for security coordination and cross-chain.
