Pharos is a Modular & Full-stack Parallel L1 blockchain structured into three layers (Base, Core, and Extension) to provide industry-leading data availability and sub-second finality for decentralized applications

Native restaking allows the network to use the excess computing power of validators to provide shared security for SPNs. This mechanism incentivizes node upgrades and allows stakers to earn rewards by securing diverse applications, from blockchain sidechains to non-blockchain AI models.

SPNs are custom networks built on the L1-Extension layer. They use heterogeneous computation to run specific high-performance tasks, such as ZKML, AI models, and High-Frequency Trading (HFT), all while benefiting from the shared security of the Pharos L1.

Staking on Pharos involves committing assets to support the network's decentralized nodes. These nodes power the L1-Core, ensuring high throughput and network security while enabling the creation of Special Processing Networks (SPNs).

Through its multi-asset protocols, Pharos integrates with external restaking platforms like Babylon and EigenLayer. This allows the ecosystem to utilize liquid assets such as stBTC and stETH within its DeFi environment to enhance overall liquidity and security
