About Kadena
Kadena is a public blockchain that tries to optimize for scalability. It also includes a new smart contract language, codenamed Pact, that includes formal verification and the ability to modify smart contracts as they are created. Kadena also uses a new Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus technique known as Chainweb, which consists of numerous individually mined chains that work in parallel to execute network transactions to achieve consensus. This approach theoretically allows for a high transaction throughput at the base layer without the requirement for any scalability or feature solutions at the second-layer level of abstraction.
