Nervos is a layered blockchain platform combining a Proof of Work Layer 1 (Common Knowledge Base) with an EVM-compatible Layer 2 (Godwoken), designed for secure asset storage and scalable decentralized applications. The unique architecture uses the Cell Model - a generalized UTXO framework - enabling flexible programmability, multi-signature algorithm support, and sustainable tokenomics through a state rent mechanism. Nervos extends Bitcoin functionality via the RGB++ protocol, positioning itself as a Bitcoin Layer 2 solution with native cross-chain interoperability.

By layering EVM compatibility and account abstraction atop a store-of-value focused base layer, Nervos provides developers with Ethereum tooling while leveraging the unique features of its dual-layer design and CKB-VM for programming language flexibility. The Nervos blockchain benefits Bitcoin users seeking smart contract capabilities, DeFi protocols requiring interoperability, developers building application-specific chains through Axon, and enterprises needing sustainable, cryptographically flexible infrastructure for Web3 applications
