Chromia architecture
Chromia's architecture focuses on clusters that manage blockchains and decentralized applications (dapps). It provides a reliable consensus system, ensures secure data anchoring, and offers scalable capabilities to deliver fast and efficient performance. This framework allows smooth operations and communication between blockchains and dapps, effectively supporting advanced decentralized applications.
Chromia nodes use Postchain and PostgreSQL to manage transactions, maintain consensus, and operate dapps. Each dapp runs in its own container, which enhances both data security and efficiency.
The architecture employs clusters to manage blockchains and dapps, incorporating consensus mechanisms, anchoring, and scalability to boost performance and security.

Chromia enables EVM-compatible chain interoperability with a token bridge and the Ethereum Interoperability Framework (EIF), which supports secure cross-chain dapp development.
The Chromia protocols manage accounts, tokens, and blockchain communication. FT4 handles token management, Originals support advanced NFTs, ICMF facilitates cluster communication, and ICCF connects clusters.
GTX encodes Postchain transactions using Generic Transfer Value (GTV) with multi-signatures and atomic operations, processing them in batches to ensure secure transfers.
You can use special operations to manage various events in the Chromia blockchain, including on-chain, cross-chain, and off-chain events.
