Blockchain Technical Overview
Consensus Mechanism
Bondis employs a Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) consensus derived from HotStuff, ensuring rapid transaction finality (< 0.1 seconds) and high resilience against faults or malicious activity.
Stablecoin Transfers
Native stablecoin transfers are free and processed through a dedicated mempool to maintain efficiency. To prevent spam and ensure fairness, Bondis implements rate limits on transfers per account (subsequent transfers are paid). These rate limits dynamically adjust based on:
Outstanding balances (higher balances permit greater throughput)
Account age (older accounts have higher rate limits)
Smart Contract Execution
Bondis supports the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), enabling developers to deploy and execute arbitrary smart contracts seamlessly, leveraging existing Ethereum-compatible tooling.
Native On-Chain Order Book
Currency swaps are efficiently handled via a native, fully on-chain order book, facilitating transparent and frictionless exchanges between stablecoins of different currencies.
Protocol-level stablecoin minting & burning
Stablecoin issuance is natively supported at the protocol level, rather than being delegated entirely to smart contracts. This design ensures:
Higher efficiency and lower gas costs for mint/burn operations
Tighter integration with rate-limit logic, KYB-verified issuers, and treasury backing systems
Simplified UX and enhanced trust for institutional issuers and regulated partners
Flexible Transaction Fees (Stablecoins or Native Tokens)
Transaction fees for executing smart contracts can be paid either in native tokens or directly in supported stablecoins. This flexibility greatly enhances user experience by simplifying interactions and reducing friction for users transacting primarily in stablecoins.
Private Transactions (Opt-in)
Bondis supports optional private transactions using integrated zero-knowledge proofs. This allows users to obscure transaction details—such as sender, receiver, or amount—while retaining provability and auditability through:
Viewing key infrastructure for selective transparency
Compatibility with KYB’d wallets and compliance tools
Bridges
Bondis natively supports secure, seamless bridging from major external networks, allowing users to bring assets into the ecosystem without relying on centralized custodians or third-party aggregators. Validators run lightweight nodes for supported external networks. This allows them to:
Validate bridged asset deposits directly from Ethereum, Solana, and L2s.
Finalize cross-chain transfers using Bondis consensus
Eliminate the need for external bridge operators.
This approach ensures security, decentralization, and auditability for all cross-chain asset flows.
