Fantom Token is now available on Frontier

The Frontier team is excited to announce that Fantom is now available on the Frontier mobile app, - a non-custodial DeFi wallet that makes it easy to track, send, store, and invest in 4000+ assets all in one place. You can now create, import, and track wallets (in real-time), exchange Fantom tokens, optimize with Frontier’s 0% commission fee, and more.

What is Fantom?

Fantom is an open-source smart contract platform for digital assets and decentralized applications (dApps). A fast and efficient blockchain, Fantom is a Layer1 (L1), that aims to provide an alternative to the slow speeds and high costs Ethereum as the next most accessible EVM compatible solution

FTM, the native token of the network, is used for on-chain governance, staking, and platform fees. The main utility of the FTM token is to secure the network via a Proof-of-Stake system. Unlike Proof-of-Work, used by Ethereum and Bitcoin, Proof-of-Stake prevents centralization and saves electricity.

What makes Fantom unique?

Fantom addresses the 'blockchain trilemma' of balancing decentralization, speed, and security using the unique Lachesis consensus.

Fantom’s aBFT consensus algorithm is Lachesis. The platform is modular and compatible with other Dev tools. It can be integrated into any blockchain easily. Lachesis is created to overcome the limitations of previous consensus algorithms. It is an ideal option for applications that need fast finality and bank-grade security.

There are no leader nodes that are responsible for creating blocks. This results in faster transactions while also maintaining high levels of security.

The blocks in the network are independent. Hence, the Fantom network is more decentralized. Every decentralized application runs on an autonomous blockchain structure connected to the Lachesis consensus.

The Fantom mainnet Opera utilizes the FVM (Fantom Virtual Machine). Fantom Virtual Machine is Fantom's software development kit. It provides the framework to deploy and develop decentralized finance applications on the network.

Opera is also compatible with the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine). It lets developers move their Ethereum-based decentralized apps seamlessly to Fantom.
