Settlement certainty

You do not book capacity here.
You hold it.

There is enough of it, the fee is fixed at one cent, and nobody can outbid you for the block. The only thing you need in advance is the AERX for the day you need it.

250,000 / sec

End-to-end throughput. Contention for a settlement window does not arise.

1 cent, fixed

The protocol fee does not move. Your cost in 2029 is your cost today.

No proof of stake

Ordering is produced by attested enclaves. It cannot be bought at any price.

Which is why holding is enough. No booking. No premium. No counterparty. No queue.

What it replaces

Everywhere else, certainty is something you bid for.

On a stake-weighted chain, holding your gas money is not enough. A participant with more capital can take the block ahead of you, and the sequence in which transactions settle is a purchasable good.

Stake-weighted chains

  • Priority fees decide inclusion
  • Cost unknown until the moment of use
  • A larger holder can displace you
  • Validator conduct taken on trust
  • Certainty is bought, transaction by transaction

AEREDIUM

  • Inclusion is not for sale
  • One cent, known years ahead
  • No mechanism exists to outbid anyone
  • Attestation carried in every block
  • Certainty is held, not purchased

The evidence

Why the claim stands up.

10×Visa's peak

Visa peaks near 24,000 transactions per second and Mastercard near 5,000. AEREDIUM sustains 250,000 end to end. A one billion dollar bond portfolio, settled as a hundred line items across five funds, occupies roughly two milliseconds of chain time.

9 / 9Enclaves attested

Validation is performed by attested enclaves running provable code, each block carrying the attestation that says so. What an institution verifies is a proof about the machine rather than an undertaking about conduct.

$0.01Per transaction, fixed

Set inside the protocol layer and not by a market. Settlement operations can be budgeted against it years ahead, which no variable-fee chain permits.

For institutions

Four ways in.

Each level is additive. None of them requires the one above it, and the first needs no integration at all.

Level 1

Observe

Read the chain of record. No integration and no commitment.

Level 2

Hold and transact

AERKey threshold custody, AerKYC gate, StablePro wallet.

Level 3

Settle on chain

Atomic delivery versus payment against audited digital cash.

Level 4

Integrate

Full AERLink integration into core banking and treasury systems.

Architecture

Five primitives.

The technical white paper carries the full specification, the consensus and attestation design, and the patent position.

AERKey

Threshold signing custody. No single party ever holds a key.

Trans Layer

The settlement and transaction layer of the chain of record.

AERLink

Integration into existing core banking and treasury systems.

Privacy Mode

Sealed execution. Desk confidentiality without leaving the chain.

Verifiable

Enclave attestation carried in every block, checkable by anyone.
