We are building a highly scalable blockchain ecosystem

At Fantom, we’re committed to providing technology that combines scalability, decentralization, and security.
To turn this vision into reality, the Fantom Foundation is developing different parts of an open system and closely works with partners to support the adoption of Fantom technology.

We are blockchain developers

The Fantom Foundation has experience with blockchain development across the whole technology stack. From developing a consensus algorithm from scratch to middleware and a full-featured software suite, we built it.

We are blockchain integrators

Through the EVM, developers can utilize smart contracts on top of Fantom, and it allows projects to port their existing Ethereum dApps over to Fantom easily.
Addtionally, Lachesis is ABCI compatible and can be seamlessly integrated into other blockchains as a separate consensus module.

About us

The Fantom Foundation is dedicated to building the infrastructure for a more democratic and efficient future. Our team is made up of engineers, scientists, researchers, designers, and entrepreneurs who share the same vision. Together, we’re working to improve everyone’s lives by making advanced technologies more accessible and seamlessly integrated. True to the maxim of decentralization, our team is distributed across the world.
Join our community to make this vision a reality.
