Skale Network

SKALE is an Ethereum-native multichain network of decentralized, EVM-compatible blockchains designed to scale Ethereum dApps. It supports purpose-built app-chains and hub-chains, zero-gas-fee transactions, fast finality, cross-chain messaging and a native oracle.

Practical overview

When it fits

Consider SKALE when an Ethereum-compatible application needs a dedicated multichain environment and its zero-gas-fee, throughput, finality or bridging characteristics match the application’s requirements.

Who it is for

  • Developers building or scaling Ethereum-compatible dApps.
  • Teams designing applications that need purpose-built chains or cross-chain asset and data movement.

Documented uses

  • Build Solidity applications for SKALE’s EVM-compatible chains.
  • Use app-chains and hub-chains to tailor an application’s chain environment.
  • Move supported assets or messages between Ethereum and SKALE chains through IMA.
  • Use SKALE Portal to find chain IDs, RPC endpoints and explorer links.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The network repository is public and identifies its license as AGPL-3.0.

  • The README lists Solidity support up to 0.8.24 and EVM compiler versions up to Shanghai.
  • SKALE describes an average throughput of 800 transactions per second per chain; actual application requirements should be assessed against the selected chain.
  • IMA supports ERC-20, ERC-721 and ERC-1155 tokens, as well as arbitrary data messaging.
  • The repository is primarily listed as TypeScript, while the README identifies the custom EVM implementation as C++.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Review SKALE chain compatibility and tooling options

Identify documented EVM compatibility details and supported Solidity and compiler versions before developing for SKALE.

Before you start

  • Access to the SKALE Network README.

Steps

  1. Review the README's Tech Stack section for the EVM compatibility statement.

  2. Check the listed supported Solidity version, Solidity ≤ 0.8.24.

  3. Check the listed EVM compiler version, ≤ Shanghai.

  4. Review the README's SKALE Block Explorers section for its default explorer and compatibility notes.

Expected outcome

You can identify the compatibility and version limits stated by the README, along with the listed default explorer.

Guide limitations

  • The README does not give a contract-build, deployment, or testing procedure.
  • Compatibility and version details are limited to the versions stated in the README.
