# Gravity

> The Magnet chain for web3

Gravity is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain delivering high throughput and subsecond finality for cross-chain interactions through parallel execution.

Gravity is a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain built for mass adoption and omnichain interoperability. Using pipelined AptosBFT consensus and Grevm parallel EVM runtime, Gravity achieves over one gigagas per second throughput with subsecond finality while maintaining Proof-of-Stake security through restaking technology. The network supports seamless cross-chain transactions and intent-based settlements across multiple blockchains.

## Products

- [Gravity Alpha Mainnet](https://thegrid.id/profiles/gravity): Gravity Alpha Mainnet is an Ethereum Layer 2 rollup built on Arbitrum Nitro stack, serving as the initial deployment phase for testing cross-chain settlements and integrating Galxe ecosystem products. Features native canonical bridging for G, DAI, and WBTC tokens with LiFi-powered multi-token routing for broader asset support. (L2, Live)
- [Gravity Mainnet](https://thegrid.id/profiles/gravity): Gravity Mainnet is a restaking-powered Proof-of-Stake Layer 1 blockchain featuring Reth as its EVM execution engine, Jolteon consensus algorithm, and native support for cross-chain transactions through omnichain intent protocols. (L1, Early access, Main Product)

## Assets

- [Gravity (G)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/gravity): G is the native token of Gravity, a Layer 1 blockchain developed by Galxe. It is used for paying transaction fees, securing the network through staking, and participating in governance via the G DAO. G also serves as the utility token across the Galxe ecosystem, replacing GAL as the unified token for quest rewards, platform fees, and identity services. (Utility)
