About Fantom
Fantom is a high-performance, EVM-compatible blockchain platform that uses a directed acyclic graph (DAG) based consensus mechanism called Lachesis. Designed for speed and scalability, Fantom achieves near-instant transaction finality with low fees. The network hosts a variety of DeFi protocols including SpookySwap and Beethoven X. Fantom is transitioning to Sonic, an upgraded version of the network promising even faster performance and improved developer tooling.
