You can use Chia to build decentralized applications and tokenize compliant digital assets on a security-focused blockchain. Instead of relying on energy-intensive proof-of-work mining, Chia secures its ledger using unused hard drive storage through proof of space and time. You can allocate spare storage space on your computer to farm XCH tokens and validate transactions. Chia also provides developers with specialized smart contract capabilities using its Chialisp language, letting you design compliant financial instruments, settlement systems, and decentralized services with native asset controls.
