Curious about how smart contracts can work on a Proof-of-Work blockchain? Want to explore something beyond the EVM world? Join us for Alephium Dev Workshop, a relaxed, hands-on workshop with core developers from Alephium!
We’ll dive into:
- The evolution of the UTXO model and how Alephium extends it for scalability and programmability
- The design and features of Ralph, Alephium’s purpose-built smart contract language
- A live session deploying a smart contract on Alephium’s testnet
What is Alephium?
Alephium is a Layer 1 blockchain founded in Switzerland, built on Proof-of-Work. It combines innovative sharding, expressive smart UTXO (sUTXO), and an energy-efficient consensus called Proof-of-Less-Work. Alephium enables scalable and secure dApps designed for real-world use cases — and it’s been running smoothly for over five years.
This is for you if you’re:
- A developer who’s used to EVM and curious about other virtual machines
- Interested in UTXO, PoW, or just want to try something new
- Keen to see how smart contracts can live on a scalable Proof-of-Work chain
Bring your laptop and make sure Docker is installed – we’ll get you set up and building in no time!
