The blockchain technology is very dynamic, and developers are always looking for ways to create more efficient and flexible applications. One of the biggest challenges has been getting different virtual machines (VMs) to work together smoothly. This is where blended execution comes in.
What is Blended Execution?
Blended execution is a new approach that allows applications built for different VMs to interact seamlessly on the same blockchain. Normally, apps running on different VMs (like Ethereum’s EVM or Solana’s SVM) struggle to communicate because they are built in separate environments. With blended execution, these apps can share the same blockchain state and work together without needing extra steps like bridging or switching wallets.
This means developers can combine the strengths of multiple VMs to create better, more powerful applications. Users also benefit because they can interact with different apps effortlessly, without worrying about compatibility issues.
How Does Fluent Enable Blended Execution?
Fluent is the first blockchain network designed for blended execution. It runs on an Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) and supports applications built for EVM, SVM, and Wasm (WebAssembly).
Fluent makes this possible by using rWasm, a special low-level system that acts as a bridge between different VMs. It translates their operations into a common format, allowing them to work together smoothly. This approach ensures compatibility, improves efficiency, and reduces the complexity of proving transactions on the blockchain.
What is an AltVM?
An altVM is simply an alternative virtual machine. Many blockchains use different VMs to run smart contracts, but they often operate in isolation. Fluent’s blended execution approach makes it possible to integrate multiple altVMs into a single environment, allowing developers to use different programming languages and tools without restrictions.
Blended Execution vs. MultiVM
Some blockchain networks use a multiVM approach, where different VMs exist side by side but don’t fully interact. Blended execution goes a step further by deeply integrating them, so they function as a unified system. This eliminates inefficiencies and makes transactions smoother and faster.
What is a Blended App?
A blended app is an application that takes advantage of Fluent’s blended execution to interact with multiple VMs at once. Instead of being limited to one ecosystem, these apps can combine features from different blockchain environments, making them more flexible and powerful.
Why Does This Matter?
Blended execution is a game-changer because it removes barriers between blockchain ecosystems. Developers get more tools to build with, apps become more powerful, and users enjoy a seamless experience without worrying about compatibility issues.
Fluent is leading this revolution by providing the first blockchain network with true blended execution. As this technology continues to grow, it could redefine how blockchain applications are built and used, making Web3 more accessible and efficient for everyone.
