About Beam
Beam is a blockchain network identified by chain ID 4337, operating as an Avalanche subnet. It utilizes the native currency Beam (BEAM), which has 18 decimal places. Beam is designed to support a variety of applications, including decentralized finance (DeFi), artificial intelligence (AI), and gaming. The network is Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible, allowing developers to deploy applications using Solidity. Beam employs a Proof of Authority (PoA) consensus mechanism, where a selected group of reputable authorities validate transactions, ensuring scalability and security. The BEAM token serves multiple purposes within the ecosystem: it acts as the gas token for transaction fees, is used for staking to secure the network, enables governance participation, and functions as a means of payment within the Beam ecosystem. Beam's ecosystem includes various tools and decentralized applications (dApps), such as Beam Swap, Beam Bridge, and Sphere NFT Marketplace, facilitating a comprehensive environment for developers and users.
