✦ Expert opinion on Alephium (ALPH)
• Alephium is considered a promising Layer-1 as it combines the strengths of Bitcoin's security, decentralization, and Ethereum's smart contracts, DeFi.
• Use sharding architecture + DAG (BlockFlow), achieving scalability of tens of thousands of TPS, far exceeding the current BTC and ETH.
• The Proof of Less Work consensus mechanism (PoLW) maintains PoW-style security while reducing energy consumption by ~85–90%, making it environmentally friendly.
• The Ralph + VM Alphred private contract language helps prevent common errors on Ethereum ( such as reentrancy, flash loan, MEV).
✦ Alephium's performance exceeds that of BTC & ETH
• Compared to BTC: • Faster (block time 8–16s instead of 10 minutes). • Much higher scalability (10,000+ TPS compared to ~7 TPS). • Has native smart contracts and DeFi, while BTC barely supports it. • Lower electricity consumption, more environmentally friendly.
• Compared to ETH: • Safer smart contracts, reducing DeFi hack risks. • Superior TPS due to sharding, not congested like ETH. • Low transaction fees, contract storage fees reduced by up to 90% after the Rhone upgrade. • Combining the UTXO security of BTC and the account flexibility of ETH within the same system.
✦ In summary, Alephium is being viewed as a "new generation candidate" with ambitions to be as secure as Bitcoin, as smart as Ethereum, but faster and more efficient than both.
