What is Reddio?

(Source: Reddio)

Reddio is a high-performance Layer 2 blockchain built on Ethereum, aiming to scale Ethereum's computational capacity while retaining its security and developer compatibility. Through zero-knowledge technology (ZK Proofs), parallel EVM execution architecture, and GPU-accelerated computing, Reddio can provide performance far exceeding existing zkEVM or Optimistic Rollup without sacrificing decentralization or security. Its key features are as follows:

• EVM Fully Compatible: Supports all Ethereum smart contracts, RPC tools, and mainstream development frameworks (such as Hardhat, Foundry, etc.), allowing existing dApps to be deployed directly to Reddio without the need to modify the code.
• Parallel Execution Architecture: Achieve true multi-threaded EVM operations, maximizing performance using GPU and CUDA.
• Modular Sequencer SDK: Implemented by the Reddio team using the Yu Framework developed in Golang, developers can create their own custom Sequencer based on their needs, supporting modular extensions for L2, L3, ZK, and even BTC Layer 2.
• Highly synchronized with Layer 1: Sequencer supports Proof construction and Data Availability (DA) processing, ensuring efficient synchronization of state with L1 and enhancing data integrity of Layer 2.

The technical core of Reddio

Reddio's groundbreaking Modular Sequencer SDK redefines the way L2/L3 AppChains are built. This SDK can integrate with virtual machines such as CairoVM, EVM, Parallel EVM, and supports custom consensus processes and transaction validity checks (signature verification, prevention of replay attacks, etc.). Its architecture has the following features:

• Modular Consensus System: Regularly generates blocks and executes transactions to maintain state consistency.
• High-frequency throughput combined with security: integrating data availability with Proof verification to ensure synchronization with the Ethereum main chain state.
• Developer-friendly: Compared to Cosmos SDK or Substrate, the Yu Framework is lighter, more customizable, and suitable for building highly resilient application chains.

With the SDK source code about to be open-sourced, Reddio expects to attract more developers to join and explore diverse application scenarios of ZK-L2, L3, and even Bitcoin-L2.

The application scenarios of Reddio

The high-performance architecture of Reddio is particularly suitable for applications with extremely high demands on speed, transaction density, and scalability, such as:

• DeFi: Handling high-frequency trading, flash loans, and cross-chain asset interactions.
• On-chain games (GameFi): Support large-scale user operations and real-time interactions, avoiding the lag and high Gas fees issues of traditional chain games.
• AI on-chain: Driving on-chain machine learning inference with GPU computing, bringing "verifiable AI" to the blockchain and creating a new application domain.

Reddio's parallel EVM architecture and modular Sequencer provide unprecedented flexibility and performance guarantees for these application scenarios.

Reddio's token economics

In the Reddio ecosystem, $RDO is the core functional token, not just a medium for paying fees and participating in governance, but also the incentive fuel that drives the operation of the entire decentralized infrastructure.

Token allocation structure

The total supply of Reddio's $RDO is capped at a fixed limit, with the specific allocation as follows:

• Security and Network Rewards 25%: Used to reward nodes that participate in consensus and provide computing resources, with no initial unlock (No cliff), a linear release period of up to ten years, establishing a long-term stable network foundation.
• Ecosystem Growth Incentive 22.76%: Used to fund dApps, provide partner grants, and expand the ecosystem. 70.1% will be unlocked at TGE, with the remaining portion unlocked linearly over 48 months.
• Core Contributors 21.8%: Allocated to the core team and early developers, with a 12-month cliff, followed by a 24-month linear unlock, ensuring sustained participation and contribution.
• Strategic investors 15.48%: Allocations provided to early investors who offer funding and market support. 6-month cliff, followed by 18 months of linear unlocking to reduce speculative pressure.
• Community Participation Reward 8%: Used for airdrops, educational promotions, community activity rewards, accelerating user adoption and network awareness.
• Vault Reserve 6.96%: Managed by the DAO, used for emergency deployment, operational flexibility, and liquidity replenishment. 15% unlocked at TGE, the remaining released linearly over four years.

$RDO Function and Purpose

• Network security and consensus participation: Staking $RDO allows participation in the Proof-of-Authority consensus and block production, and earns miner rewards.
• Node incentives and maintenance: Nodes supplying computing power and GPUs can obtain $RDO incentives by contributing computing resources.
• Ecosystem rewards and development subsidies: Encourage developers, partner projects, and dApp teams to enter the Reddio ecosystem to promote network activity.
• Community Governance and DAO Voting: Token holders can participate in the proposal and parameter setting decisions of the Reddio DAO.

Why choose Reddio?

In today's increasingly competitive Layer 2 landscape, Reddio has not just focused on performance improvements, but has instead taken architectural innovation and ecological compatibility as breakthroughs to create a highly forward-looking L2 network, from technology to underlying design. Reddio can be understood in this way:

• It is faster than most zkEVMs.
• More flexible than traditional Rollup
• Focuses more on developer experience than most L2s.
• Open the next generation AppChain ecosystem through a modular architecture.

For developers, this is a development environment that requires no new language to learn and can be directly used; for validators and node providers, this is a sustainable mechanism with long-term returns and robust incentives; for Web3 users, this is an efficient Layer 2 network that finally enables the practical implementation of high-speed GameFi, AI, and DeFi applications.

summary

Reddio is not about reinventing Ethereum, but rather addressing the limitations of Ethereum itself in high-frequency applications. Through CUDA-compatible GPU computing, modular Sequencers, and parallel execution architecture, Reddio builds a Layer 2 solution that is truly designed for "high-performance applications." In the future, whether it's building a DeFi tool, launching a game, deploying AI models, or simply wanting to participate in blockchain applications with lower costs and faster speeds, Reddio is a core protocol worth delving into and participating in.
