LORA is a multi-chain, parallel blockchain network specifically designed for high-concurrency commercial applications. It aims to overcome the limitations of existing public chains in terms of performance, compatibility, and scalability. Built on the Tendermint cross-chain protocol and an optimized BFT consensus mechanism, LORA integrates distributed storage, smart contracts, and secure communication into a highly efficient infrastructure.
Compared to traditional public chains, LORA retains foundational features such as immutability and peer-to-peer transmission, while adopting a modular design that separates the system into multiple functional subchains, such as a token chain and a data chain. It is also natively compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), significantly lowering the migration barrier for developers. Its unique parallel computing architecture substantially enhances on-chain transaction processing capabilities, reduces response times, and provides a stable and efficient runtime environment. This makes LORA well-suited for high-frequency application scenarios such as DeFi, the metaverse, and digital identity.
LORA is designed to serve as the “infrastructure for the next generation of the value Internet,” offering a more open, compatible, and sustainable platform for global decentralized applications.
LORA is optimized to handle high traffic, high concurrency, and cross-blockchain data and models, and builds its foundational system architecture accordingly. The stable operation of LORA requires a reliable, secure, scalable, and easily maintainable application system platform as its backbone.
LORA divides the blockchain system into the following layers:
1） User Service Layer
2） Developer Service Layer
3） On-Chain Service Layer
4） Underlying Protocol Layer
The LORA team aims to build a distributed, production-grade open ecosystem for enterprise-level blockchain applications. It is committed to closely integrating blockchain technology with data applications, fully leveraging the advantages of blockchain to address the growing cost and security challenges posed by centralized systems in real-world application scenarios.
LORA adopts the Tendermint cross-chain protocol and employs a 1+N parallel chain structure, static ledger, LRB space-time proof, dynamic storage, polymorphic nodes, node migration and elimination, and a PoS consensus mechanism. Based on the needs of commercial application systems, it provides an open-source IDE development environment to build a truly commercial-grade Blockchain 3.0 ecosystem.
The Token Chain, i.e., the public chain's cryptographic token layer, acts as a decentralized digital carrier for payments based on blockchain technology. The encrypted LORA Token system enables peer-to-peer direct transactions, avoiding high fees and complex processes typically associated with centralized payments. All transactions must be validated by network nodes and permanently recorded on the public distributed ledger based on blockchain technology. The LORA Token is the most essential tool for enabling value transfer within the LORA ecosystem.
A blockchain is a chain of data blocks generated using cryptographic methods. Each block contains multiple network transactions and is used to verify data validity (anti-counterfeit) and generate the next block. For ordinary users, it acts as a public ledger recording all transaction history; for developers, it functions as a distributed database. Key features include decentralization, openness, autonomy, and immutability. Blockchain is inherently suited to support decentralized applications (DApps), particularly in data storage.
LORA adopts a 1+N multi-chain architecture, essentially comprising a public chain plus N sub-chains. These chains handle business logic and data partitioning rather than being physically isolated as public or private chains. The public chain is singular, while theoretically, there can be unlimited sub-chains. Each sub-chain can run one or more DApps. Using the latest sharding storage technology, the sub-chains support parallel transaction processing. Once transactions are completed, they are asynchronously written to the public chain ledger. This approach is one of the optimal solutions to mitigate network congestion.
