Dual-Chain Protocol

Definition

A dual-chain protocol is a blockchain architecture that incorporates two distinct, interconnected chains, each optimized for different functions to enhance overall network performance and scalability. One chain might handle high-throughput transactions, while the other manages security or governance, allowing for specialized processing. This design aims to overcome the limitations of single-chain systems by distributing workload and improving operational efficiency. It facilitates greater flexibility and resource allocation.
