About
Cartesi (CTSI)

Cartesi (CTSI) is a Layer-2 infrastructure platform designed to resolve the critical issue of computational scalability and high costs on blockchain networks. Often referred to as "The Blockchain OS," its primary objective is to enable decentralized applications (dApps) with complexities that rival their centralized Web2 counterparts. Cartesi achieves this by allowing developers to build smart contracts and dApps within a full Linux operating system environment, utilizing mainstream programming languages and software stacks. This approach significantly lowers the barrier to entry for developers transitioning from Web2 to Web3, fostering a richer and more powerful dApp ecosystem built on robust blockchain technology.

The core of the platform is the Cartesi Machine (CM), a deterministic virtual machine that executes intensive computations off-chain. By leveraging Optimistic Rollups, Cartesi can process these complex calculations externally while anchoring the results with cryptographic security on the underlying Layer-1 blockchain, such as Ethereum. This hybrid model provides the immense computational power of off-chain processing with the verifiable trust of an on-chain digital ledger. The native utility token, CTSI, is integral to the network's tokenomics. It is used for staking within Cartesi's Noether Proof-of-Stake (PoS) sidechain, where node runners help secure the network and earn rewards. CTSI also functions as the payment method for computation and data availability services within the ecosystem.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is the SGD/CTSI trading pair and its significance for developers?

    The SGD/CTSI pair represents the direct exchange rate between the Singapore Dollar (SGD) and Cartesi (CTSI). Its significance lies in providing a direct fiat on-ramp for Singapore-based developers and investors to acquire CTSI. This is crucial for those wanting to engage with Cartesi's ecosystem, which offers a Layer-2 Linux infrastructure for building scalable decentralized applications (DApps) using mainstream software stacks.
  • What are common methods for purchasing CTSI with SGD on a cryptocurrency exchange?

    To purchase the CTSI digital asset with Singapore Dollars, you typically need a cryptocurrency exchange that supports SGD deposits. Common payment methods include direct bank transfers via FAST (Fast and Secure Transfers) or using PayNow. Users must complete KYC/AML compliance checks, link their Singapore bank account, deposit SGD into their exchange wallet, and then execute a trade on the SGD/CTSI order book.
  • How does Cartesi's technology, like the Cartesi Machine, benefit a DApp developer who starts with an SGD investment?

    A developer using SGD to acquire CTSI gains access to a unique Layer-2 ecosystem. The core innovation, the Cartesi Machine, is a Linux-based virtual machine. This allows developers to build DApps using familiar programming languages and tools, bypassing the steep learning curve of blockchain-specific languages like Solidity. This lowers the barrier to entry, enabling complex on-chain and off-chain computations that are both verifiable and scalable, directly leveraging their initial SGD investment into development resources.
  • After buying CTSI with SGD, what blockchain transaction fees should I be aware of?

    CTSI is primarily an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum network. When you withdraw CTSI from an exchange to a private digital wallet, you will incur an Ethereum network gas fee, which is paid in ETH. However, for computations and interactions within Cartesi's ecosystem, its Layer-2 solution featuring Optimistic Rollups and the Noether PoS side-chain is designed to significantly lower transaction costs compared to transacting directly on the Ethereum mainnet.
  • What are the typical KYC compliance requirements for using SGD as a fiat on-ramp to buy CTSI?

    When using a Singapore-based fiat gateway, you must adhere to regulations set by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). This involves a mandatory KYC (Know Your Customer) process, which typically requires submitting a government-issued ID (like an NRIC or passport), proof of address, and sometimes a selfie for liveness verification. These secure trading measures are in place to prevent illicit activities and ensure AML (Anti-Money Laundering) compliance.
