Description
Shimmer is a scalable, multichain network designed to build, connect, and secure sovereign blockchain environments. It uses a parallelized UTXO-based DAG ledger to enable feeless minting and asset transfers through a storage deposit model. The network supports full EVM compatibility and WASM, positioning itself as a flexible platform for decentralized applications. Shimmer also serves as a staging network for upgrading the IOTA ledger. The initial blockchain, ShimmerEVM, eradicates traditional asset composability issues. Both the DAG and ShimmerEVM are powered by the SMR token, which was fully distributed to IOTA stakers over a 90-day period.
