Dual Address Structure
Supports both AKC-native and EVM 0x address formats for full compatibility.
The Dual Address Structure is a unique feature of the Akashic Chain architecture that enables seamless coexistence of two parallel address formats:
AKC-native addresses (used for native modules and system-level operations)
EVM-compatible 0x addresses (used for smart contracts and decentralized applications)
This duality allows Akashic to maintain deep-level protocol functionality through native execution while remaining fully compatible with the existing Ethereum ecosystem. As a result, developers can enjoy high-performance native modules without sacrificing interoperability with mainstream tools and services.
How It Works
Akashic’s Dual Address Structure is built into the chain’s account system at the protocol layer. Each account can have two linked identities:
AKC-native Address
Uses a format optimized for native transaction processing and internal logic calls.
Applied in UTN-level service interactions, staking (DVS), and system governance.
EVM (0x) Address
Uses standard Ethereum address format (0x...)
Interacts with smart contracts, DEXs, wallets (e.g. MetaMask), and tooling (e.g. Remix, Truffle, Hardhat).
The system supports automatic mapping and resolution between the two, allowing dApps and users to fluidly switch between execution environments based on context.
Technical Advantages
Unified Identity Across Environments Users can interact with both native Akashic modules and EVM smart contracts using the same wallet key.
Zero Friction for Web3 Developers Full compatibility with standard tooling, wallets, and libraries enables easy onboarding from the Ethereum ecosystem.
Optimized Execution Logic Native transactions executed via AKC addresses benefit from lower gas fees and faster block confirmation.
Enhanced Layer Integration Works across CMQ, DVS, UTN agent services, and restaking systems without needing complex bridging or format conversions.
