On-Chain
Definition
On-chain refers to transactions and data recorded directly on the blockchain and validated by network consensus. On-chain operations are permanent, transparent (or privacy-protected), and inherit the full security of the underlying blockchain.
Technical Explanation
On-chain transactions go through the full validation process: broadcasting to nodes, inclusion in blocks, consensus confirmation, and permanent storage. This provides maximum security but consumes block space—a limited resource that affects fees and scalability.
Everything on-chain is verifiable by anyone running a node. For privacy chains like SynX, "transparent" means cryptographically provable without revealing sensitive details. The blockchain becomes the source of truth for all recorded state.
SynX Relevance
All SynX transactions are on-chain, inheriting quantum-resistant security and privacy protections. While efficient off-chain solutions may supplement, the base layer provides permanent, censorship-resistant record-keeping for your value transfers.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Are on-chain transactions slower?
- They require block confirmation, but SynX's efficient design minimizes wait times.
- Do on-chain transactions cost more?
- On-chain uses block space, requiring fees. SynX fees remain accessible.
- Why not do everything off-chain?
- On-chain provides maximum security and finality—the foundation off-chain builds upon.
