The EVM's stack-based execution model is straightforward in theory—operations push and pop values, validate jumps, repeat checks. But once you deploy real contracts at scale, this overhead becomes impossible to ignore.

Every transaction compounds the cost. Stack operations multiply. Jump validations repeat constantly. The cumulative friction is real.

So what if there's a better way? We've been rethinking how execution actually flows, optimizing the fundamental operations under the hood. The details matter more than most realize—and the performance gains can be substantial. Here's what changed and why it works.
