Core Infrastructure

Finance · Identity · Computation

Finance

Native coin CSM, stable assets, on‑chain treasury, and institutional‑grade tooling for digital asset management.

Identity

Self‑sovereign identity framework, verifiable credentials, and privacy‑first authentication for individuals and institutions.

Computation

On‑chain and off‑chain compute with cryptographic verification. Smart contracts via secure, audited runtimes.

How Sahyadri Works

A step-by-step look at the SahyadriDAG transaction lifecycle.

1

Transaction Created

A user creates and signs a transaction using CSM through a wallet or application. The signed transaction is submitted to a Sahyadri node via the SubmitAccountTransaction RPC endpoint and enters the network's mempool, awaiting inclusion in a block.

2

Mempool & Block Construction

The mempool prioritizes transactions by fee and arrival time. Miners select transactions from the mempool, validate them against the current account state and object records, and construct a block template. Multiple miners can independently propose blocks concurrently in the SahyadriDAG structure.

3

Sahyadri Consensus Ordering

Proposed blocks are broadcast across the P2P network. Sahyadri Consensus — a DAG-aware proof-of-work protocol — orders all parallel blocks into a single canonical history. Unlike traditional chains where competing blocks are orphaned, every valid block in SahyadriDAG is accepted and ordered.

4

Finality & Settlement

Once ordered by Sahyadri Consensus, transactions achieve BFT-grade finality in approximately 1 second. The block is permanently recorded on the ledger, balances are updated, and the transaction is considered irreversible — confirmed and settled faster than any payment method in existence.

Key Features

Built from the ground up for scale, security, and sovereignty.

10,000 TPS

High-throughput transaction processing capable of handling global-scale demand without sacrificing decentralization.

1-Second Blocks

Near-instant block times with BFT-grade finality, ensuring transactions confirm within seconds.

SahyadriDAG

A DAG-based ledger structure that allows parallel block creation, eliminating the bottleneck of linear chains.

Sahyadri Consensus

A novel DAG-aware proof-of-work consensus that provides the security of PoW with the speed of BFT finality.

Account + Object Model

Dual-model architecture combining account-based simplicity with object-based flexibility for advanced on-chain logic.

Sovereign L1

Fully independent Layer 1 blockchain — not a sidechain, not an L2. Sahyadri is its own network with its own security.

Why Sahyadri

The world's fastest proof-of-work blockchain with an account + object model. No other network comes close.

01 World's First - Fastest PoW Blockchain Ever Built

Fastest PoW Blockchain Ever Built

Traditional international bank transfers take 1–5 business days and charge 3–7% in fees. Payment processors take 1–3% per transaction. Sahyadri settles any transaction — whether across the street or across the world — in 1 second, with near-zero fees. No intermediary, no waiting period, no hidden charges. Send value from anywhere to anywhere in the time it takes to blink — for as low as 0.00001 CSM per transaction.

02 Account + Object Model on PoW

Smart, Flexible, and Secured by Mining

Most proof-of-work blockchains are limited to simple transfers. Sahyadri's Account + Object model enables structured on-chain data, native balances, and programmatic logic — features typically found only in proof-of-stake networks. Build decentralized applications, manage digital identities, or run complex financial instruments — all protected by the security of proof-of-work.

03 1-Second Block Finality

Instant Confirmation, Zero Doubt

When you send a payment, you want to know it's confirmed — not pending, not waiting for blocks, not reversible. Traditional payment networks take hours to days for true settlement. Card networks batch transactions at the end of the day. Sahyadri gives you cryptographic finality in 1 second. Your transaction is permanent, irreversible, and confirmed before you put your phone back in your pocket.

04 SahyadriDAG — Parallel PoW Mining

No More Wasted Mining

In traditional blockchains, when two miners find a block at the same time, one gets rejected — wasted energy, wasted work. SahyadriDAG eliminates this. Every block created is accepted into the DAG structure, ordered by Sahyadri Consensus. No orphans, no discarded work. Every hash computed contributes to the network. This is how Sahyadri achieves 10,000 TPS while maintaining full decentralization.
