Built by Cardano's Original Engineers, VECTOR Is Bringing Instant Finality for Institutions | HackerNoon
Briefly

Apex Fusion is launching VECTOR, a new blockchain that applies Cardano's architectural principles while addressing its limitations. Built by early Cardano architects, VECTOR seeks to achieve transaction finality under 13 seconds with tenfold throughput compared to Cardano's mainnet. The UTxO model, offering security and parallelization, traditionally struggles with speed due to sequential validation. VECTOR claims to optimize this model for institutional use, backed by peer-reviewed metrics confirming its performance capabilities, crucial for financial applications requiring fast and reliable transactions.
VECTOR is being presented as a serious contender in the high-performance financial blockchain arena, claiming transaction finality in under 13 seconds with throughput 10 times greater than Cardano's mainnet.
Unlike account-based chains, UTxO chains track outputs from previous transactions, offering security advantages but facing trade-offs in throughput and finality due to sequential validation.
VECTOR shows how the UTxO model can evolve to meet institutional demands without compromising its foundational strengths, optimizing the UTxO structure without changing the base protocol.
Independent performance metrics verified by experts confirm VECTOR's capabilities: achieving 10x throughput compared to Cardano mainnet, with 99.9% finality within 13 seconds and 98.6% instant finality under optimized conditions.
