This is something made uniquely possible by standards and resources existing on decentralised blockchains like Flow.<br/><br/>Jesse Walden of a16z says ""A platform is composable if its existing resources can be used as building blocks and programmed into higher order applications. Composability is important because it allows developers to do more with less, which in turn, can lead to more rapid and compounding innovation.” – Jesse Walden, 4 eras of blockchain computing</p></div></div><div id="common-questions-portions" class="accordion-item"><div id="common-questions-portions" data-w-id="90776d49-7436-bf07-aa89-1ec8c0b7a109" class="accordion-item-trigger"><div>How is Flow different from other blockchains?</div><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5f734f4dbd95382f4fdfa0ea/6276a9325a37152582feea8c_Vector%20(1).svg" alt="arrow" class="downchevron"/></div><div style="height:0PX" class="accordion-item-content"><p class="a-paragrpah">Flow is unique in that it addresses the scalability trilemma - a problem that forces trade-offs between scale, security and decentralisation which public blockchains face - by dividing the security and performance work over different groups of nodes which are each specialised for their respective tasks. This unique multi-node architecture allows Flow to scale performantly to service mainstream adoption without compromising the security or long term decentralisation of the network. This multi-node architecture also allows Flow to provide full ACID guarantees which unlocks rich interactions between smart contracts ("composability") and creates strong network effects for apps built on Flow without the complexity of sharding (other chains answer to managing complex state).</p></div></div><div id="common-questions-portions" class="accordion-item"><div id="common-questions-portions" data-w-id="a6f3da68-9d62-26d8-194f-9d00e0cb80cd" class="accordion-item-trigger"><div class="q-title">How will Flow deal with the overhead of providing state proofs for a high volume of transactions per second?</div><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5f734f4dbd95382f4fdfa0ea/6276a9325a37152582feea8c_Vector%20(1).svg" alt="arrow" class="downchevron"/></div><div style="height:0PX" class="accordion-item-content"><p class="a-paragrpah">The Flow Architecture defines an Access role specifically to provide cryptographic proofs of transaction outcomes.

ACID properties can be assumed, just like on Ethereum. Thus, all dapps can assume a single shared state space, and don't need to be rearchitected to support a sharded environment or asynchronous function calls.<br/><br/>2. The programming language for Flow is Cadence. It is not compatible with EVM. Thus, smart contract logic needs to be re-implemented. The effort for the implementation largely depends upon the context and complexity of the application. Porting will be simple for NFT-based projects primarily off-the-shelf use cases: transferring, minting, selling on secondary market places, royalties, etc. It will be much more involved if Ethereum-specific ecosystem tools and services were utilized. For instance, the stablecoins compatible with the Flow ecosystem might be different to the ones dapp builders used on Ethereum. Right now, Flow supports FUSD, tUSDT, and USDC.<br/><br/>3. The integration of blockchain interactions into web applications can be done with FCL, a JS library. While architecturally different, it accomplishes similar goals as web3.js. Web applications will need to be updated to support FCL (handling transactions, handling authentication, and handling queries to Flow).<br/><br/>4. The token standards for Flow are implemented differently to account for the resource-oriented programming model represented in Cadence.<br/><br/>5. The wallets compatible with the Flow ecosystem are not the same wallets users and dapp builders are familiar with. Their users accounts would need to be re-created.For a comparison of building blocks for common NFT use cases, <a target="_blank" href="https://developers.flow.com/">please check out the Flow documentation</a>.</p></div></div><div id="common-questions-portions" class="accordion-item"><div id="common-questions-portions" data-w-id="667f6d8b-ce00-e8a8-552e-c65d5a12ae28" class="accordion-item-trigger"><div class="q-title">How will Flow get past the limitations of processing a high volume of transactions on commodity hardware?

If every node in the network has the same role, you have to compromise on at least one of those dimensions.<br/><br/>Flow doesn’t “break” or disprove the Trilemma, it dodges around it. The trick is noting that, if we let different nodes participate in different roles, we can choose the right trade-offs for each part of the system.<br/><br/>Flow maximizes security and decentralization for the Consensus Nodes, the part of the system most vulnerable to Byzantine attacks. This limits their scalability, of course, but that isn’t actually a problem because we don’t ask the Consensus Nodes to do anything computationally expensive.<br/><br/>On the other hand, we crank up the scalability for Execution Nodes to dramatically increase computation throughput. This compromises the security and decentralization of those nodes, which we address by ensuring that every step of every transaction is confirmed by the high security and decentralised Verification Nodes.<br/><br/>For each node type, the Trilemma holds as expected, but the overall effect is a system where the weaknesses of one part of the system are more than offset by the strengths of the other parts.</p></div></div><div id="common-questions-portions" class="accordion-item"><div id="common-questions-portions" data-w-id="d54c6ef5-9eac-2520-b54a-c3c5d72ae689" class="accordion-item-trigger"><div class="q-title">How do I buy Flow?</div><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5f734f4dbd95382f4fdfa0ea/6276a9325a37152582feea8c_Vector%20(1).svg" alt="arrow" class="downchevron"/></div><div style="height:0PX" class="accordion-item-content"><p class="a-paragrpah">The Flovatar team has put together <a href="https://flovatar.com/get-started#flow">a helpful guide for getting Flow.</a></p></div></div><div id="common-questions-portions" class="accordion-item"><div id="common-questions-portions" data-w-id="275f4d9e-1306-2a84-35c0-3f2879809015" class="accordion-item-trigger"><div class="q-title">Where/how can I purchase Flow?</div><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5f734f4dbd95382f4fdfa0ea/6276a9325a37152582feea8c_Vector%20(1).svg" alt="arrow" class="downchevron"/></div><div style="height:0PX" class="accordion-item-content"><p class="a-paragrpah">You can find a list of exchanges FLOW is available on <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/flow/markets/">here</a>.</p></div></div><div id="common-questions-portions" class="accordion-item"><div id="common-questions-portions" data-w-id="808e99c2-75d6-cfbf-817b-445c9f02c198" class="accordion-item-trigger"><div class="q-title">Where can I store my Flow tokens?</div><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5f734f4dbd95382f4fdfa0ea/6276a9325a37152582feea8c_Vector%20(1).svg" alt="arrow" class="downchevron"/></div><div style="height:0PX" class="accordion-item-content"><p class="a-paragrpah">You can store them in a wallet.
