Pontem Blocks is a universal interface that allows the creation of different products, services or even other blocks. Create strategies, bundle up operations in one transaction or develop your own blocks and earn. Imagination is the only limit
BASED ON
A Diem canary network without restrictions and limitations
Diem is Facebook’s next multi-billion dollar growth strategy that focuses on creating a financial institution for the unbanked. Diem will be accessible to anyone with WhatsApp or Instagram, and supports smart contracts and advanced features. Moreover, Diem intends to launch a backed stable coin as the 1st use case.
Pontem is a Substrate-based chain using a code base almost identical to Diem’s
