SUAVE
What is SUAVE?
SUAVE (Single Unifying Auction for Value Expression) is a decentralized platform for fast and private off-chain computation. It enables building blocks on other chains, defining private compute, storing private data, and accessing off-chain data.
Overview
SUAVE revolutionizes blockchain interactions by providing a platform for MEV (Miner Extractable Value) infrastructure and confidential computation. It differs from existing blockchains through programmable privacy, credible off-chain computation, and faster block times.
Key Features
- Block Building: Build blocks on other chains.
- Private Compute: Define and execute private computations.
- Private Data Storage: Store confidential data securely.
- Off-chain Data Access: Interface with external data sources.
- MEV Infrastructure: Integrate with existing MEV components or build new ones.
Architecture
Kettle
The primary protocol actor, containing a modified Geth node (MEVM) and a confidential data store.
SUAVE Chain
Runs public state, currently using Clique POA Consensus.
Confidential Compute Requests
Used to access private state through a modified RPC in each Kettle.
Key Differences
Programmable Privacy
Enables confidential computations and data handling.
Credible Off-chain Computation
Allows for trustworthy computations outside the main blockchain.
Faster Block Time
Offers improved transaction speed compared to Ethereum L1.
Applications (SUAPPs)
Smart Contracts on SUAVE
Similar to dApps on Ethereum, with additional privacy features.
Confidential Transactions
Transactions can contain data encrypted for specific actors.
Benefits
- Enables sophisticated MEV strategies
- Provides a platform for confidential blockchain computations
- Allows for faster and more efficient block building
- Supports integration with various MEV infrastructures
SUAVE empowers developers and MEV searchers with a powerful platform for confidential computations and advanced MEV strategies, potentially reshaping the landscape of blockchain value extraction and privacy.
