No. Developers can continue using Solidity, Rust, or other familiar languages. Altius handles the transpilation and optimization internally.

Smart contracts are still deployed to the host chain (e.g., Ethereum), but Altius acts as a middleware execution engine, optimizing how those contracts run under the hood.

Absolutely. Altius enables mature application developers to launch customized appchains with enterprise-grade performance, without needing deep infrastructure expertise.

Altius uses a deterministic concurrency model: only conflicting instructions are re-executed, not the entire transaction. Every major update is externally audited, and we maintain a fuzzing engine that replays high-volume mainnet traces through our parallel scheduler. Feel free to familiarize how Altius achieves speed without sacrificing security.
