Make Ethereum Great Again
Ivy Protocol is a Finality-as-a-Service (FaaS) protocol that provides fast&secure finality confirmation services for integrated rollup chains (Layer 2s) and bridged external chains. It aims to address Ethereum's scalability and cross-chain interoperability challenges, helping the Ethereum ecosystem regain its former strength.
About Ivy
Ivy Protocol is designed to solve critical challenges in scalability and interoperability, including centralized sequencers, unsafe pre-confirmation, settlement delays, fragmented cross-chain connectivity, and imbalanced revenue distribution.
By combining an Ethereum-secured off-chain network with on-chain fraud proofs and slashing mechanisms, Ivy enables fast, secure, and finalized state transitions without compromising decentralization. Its built-in cross-chain interoperability standards ensure seamless communication between internal Layer 2s and external chains (e.g., BSC), eliminating reliance on risky third-party bridges.
Additionally, Ivy's native data availability (DA) layer guarantees transaction transparency, while its restaking model not only inherits Ethereum's security but also aligns validator rewards with the growth of the Ivy ecosystem.
Ultimately, Ivy Protocol aims to unify Ethereum Layer 2 standards—redefining ecosystem collaboration and value distribution. Its technical architecture removes scaling bottlenecks and strengthens Ethereum's mainnet through a profit-sharing mechanism, ensuring long-term sustainability of the economic model.
Key Highlights
Rapid Finality Confirmation
Ivy Protocol's IvyBFT consensus protocol achieves fast state finality confirmation, enabling secure transaction settlement on app chains (Layer 2s) within seconds. App chains can freely design their own sequencing layers while leveraging Ivy’s finality services to strike the optimal balance between high throughput and low latency.
Verifiable Omnichain Interoperability
States finalized by Ivy Protocol are globally verifiable and interoperable across the ecosystem, enabling cross-chain asset transfers, generalized message passing, and other trust-minimized interactions.
Ethereum Security Inheritance
Through liquidity tokens and native token restaking mechanisms, Ivy integrates Ethereum’s economic security into its own network. This design allows permissionless Ivy node participation in state finality confirmation while maintaining robust network-level safeguards.
Decentralized Sequencer Support
Ivy decouples transaction ordering from state finality, modularizing the sequencing layer. Its standardized SDK enables app chains to choose between centralized or decentralized sequencing modes. All modes guarantee secure, trustless, and fork-free state transitions. Finality confirmations operate independently within isolated zones, preventing failures in one chain from impacting the broader network.
Core Technology

Fraud-Provable Global State Commitment
Ethereum-restaked DPoS: Decentralized node network inheriting Ethereum's security.
Fast & Objective OffChain Finality
Partition-parallel provable finality confirmation: Secure 1-second confirmation via IvyBFT + onchain slashing.
Restaking DPoS Network
Ethereum-restaked DPoS: Decentralized node network inheriting Ethereum's security.
Ivy integrates Ethereum-restaked DPoS to enable decentralized validation while inheriting security from Ethereum. Its partitioned and layered IvyBFT consensus achieves near 1-second finality. Disputes are resolved through GSC-based fraud proofs, which are verified on-chain. Malicious nodes are provably slashed, significantly increasing the cost of misbehavior.
