How To Guides
SUAVE is focused on delivering the properties you need: low latency, privacy, credible computation, and composability.
What can I do with SUAVE?​
Deploy more expressive smart contracts.
- Contracts on SUAVE follow the same rules as on Ethereum, with the added advantage of being able to access additional precompiles available to serve any MEV application. We call this builder solidity.
Enjoy confidential execution.
- Builder solidity lets you request confidential computation, where your transaction data is encrypted to specific actors. Public contracts with verifiable logic just like the EVM, combined with confidential data, means that SUAVE can be seen as an open marketplace for mechanisms we can all inspect, collaborate on, and compete with to produce the most efficient MEV applications, while nevertheless protecting everyone's privacy.
SUAVE enables anyone to build and deploy MEV applications, on a decentralized network, which were not possible until today.
Initially, we will support applications that require:
- private data, e.g., auctions, block building
- coordination within block times, e.g., block building, trade routing and filling
- access to fresh off-chain data, e.g., trading strategies conditional on centralized exchange prices or transactions that are conditional on other transactions
- commitments of various kinds, e.g., shared sequencers for rollups, new kinds of DEXes and bridges
- too much gas to do on-chain because of how much compute they use, e.g., block building.
What's in the sausage?​
The how to guides in this section are like all of our recipes. Like any good recipe, our guides do not provide history and background explanation: they show you how to do interesting and delicious things.
- How to run SUAVE, test your node, and participate in the network.
