A concise overview of the world's first designed for energy efficiency Layer-1 blockchain. Native DPoS consensus, AMM DEX, on-chain carbon credits, and the Protremix AI ecosystem — in one read.
The core thesis in one paragraph.
Verdis Chain is a designed for energy efficiency Layer-1 blockchain built on Substrate, powered by native Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus. It combines an integrated AMM decentralized exchange (DEX), ink! smart contracts, on-chain carbon credit tracking, green validator scoring, and reforestation logging into a single protocol. The native token VRDX has a fixed supply of 100 billion (9 decimals) and serves as gas, staking asset, governance instrument, and medium of exchange. Verdis Chain connects to Protremix, an AI Engineering Operating System that provides smart contract auditing, AI-powered development tools, and a plugin marketplace.
The essential numbers that define the Verdis Chain protocol.
The technical stack that powers Verdis Chain.
DPoS with BABE/GRANDPA finality. 21 target validators, all powered by 100% renewable energy. Green validator scoring rewards eco-friendly operators with higher block production priority. Slashing mechanism penalizes malicious behavior with configurable severity.
ink! smart contracts compiled to WASM via pallet_contracts. Substrate-native, no EVM compatibility layer needed. Every contract is automatically analyzed by Protremix AI before deployment, with security scores published on-chain.
Native automated market maker built directly into the protocol. 6 liquidity pools (VRDX/ECO, VRDX/CARBON, VRDX/TREE, VRDX/GREEN, ECO/CARBON, VRDX/REDD). Constant product formula with overflow-protected arithmetic and deadline parameters.
Carbon credit minting, retirement, and tracking directly on-chain. Green validator scoring, reforestation project logging, and CO2 offset verification. Integration with satellite imagery and IoT sensors for autonomous verification via Protremix AI.
IBC protocol for cross-chain communication with Polkadot, Cosmos, Ethereum, and BSC. Wrapped VRDX with 1:1 protocol-level backing. Future ZK rollup for 10,000+ TPS scaling.
100B VRDX distributed across 9 categories for long-term sustainability.

4 rounds: Seed ($0.0015, $4.5M), Community ($0.003, $3M), Presale ($0.004, $8M), TGE ($0.005, $2.5M). Total raised: $0 (target: $18M). FDV at TGE: $500M.
Seed & Team: 12-month cliff, then linear monthly. Community: 12-month cliff. Presale: 6-month cliff. TGE: 8B circulating (8%). Full unlock over 10 years.
20B VRDX staking pool with 5–6.67% APR at 30–40% stake rate. Validators earn block rewards + DEX fees. Delegators share validator rewards proportionally.
Key milestones from testnet to designed for energy efficiency planet.
AI meets blockchain — the dual ecosystem vision.
Provides decentralized trust, value transfer, smart contracts, and on-chain carbon credits. The blockchain infrastructure layer.
Provides AI-powered smart contract auditing, automated security analysis, development tools, and a plugin marketplace. The AI intelligence layer.
Every smart contract deployed on Verdis Chain is automatically analyzed by Protremix before execution. Security scores and vulnerability reports are published on-chain. AI models analyze governance proposals and simulate economic impact. Together, they form a complete green technology stack: blockchain provides trust, AI provides intelligence.
JavaScript SDK (51 methods, native WebSocket), REST/GraphQL APIs, CLI tools, developer documentation, and a 5B VRDX grant program for third-party builders.
