Description
Perun is a layer-2 scaling solution that enhances the efficiency and scalability of blockchain networks through the use of state channel technology, particularly introducing "virtual state channels" for direct transactions without blockchain confirmation, aiming to reduce transaction costs and increase speed. It is blockchain-agnostic, supporting a wide range of platforms and is designed to facilitate micropayments, DeFi applications, and other blockchain-based services. Perun's infrastructure stands out for its interoperability, security, and ease of integration, suitable for developers and enterprises in the web3 and crypto space. Specifically, the Perun network operates over Ethereum, focusing on payment and state channels that enable off-chain transactions without intermediaries, backed by robust security from cryptographic research, making it a comprehensive framework for off-chain protocols including simple payments and generic smart contract execution.
