Supported Networks

List of networks supported by Aya and an overview of address formats and capabilities.

EVM-based networks

EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) networks are blockchains that support Ethereum's smart contracts and are compatible with Ethereum's tools and applications. Examples include Arbitrum, Polygon, and Avalanche. These networks allow decentralized apps (dApps) and token transactions.

EVM addresses are 42 characters long and start with 0x. Example:

0x5b7a91B71a62C19193f2561b7f46D1A2A23d36f9

Solana

Solana is a high-performance blockchain designed for fast and low-cost transactions. It uses Proof of History (PoH) combined with Proof of Stake (PoS) to achieve high scalability.

Solana addresses are 32 bytes and usually represented in base-58. They look different from Ethereum's 0x addresses. Example:

Bitcoin

Bitcoin is the original cryptocurrency and uses Proof of Work (PoW). It's primarily designed for secure, decentralized transfers. Bitcoin Layer 2 (L2) solutions such as the Lightning Network improve scalability and speed by enabling off-chain transactions.

Bitcoin addresses commonly start with 1, 3, or bc1 (SegWit). Examples:

Legacy: 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa
SegWit: bc1qar0srrrwp6ms9psp5gq4c0gxc3k0pa8vql7apw

Some L2 solutions (for example, Stacks) use compatible address formats while enabling faster, cheaper Bitcoin-native actions.

Cosmos (soon)

Cosmos support is planned. Cosmos chains use their own addressing formats (often Bech32) and focus on interoperability via the IBC protocol. We will add details once Cosmos networks are enabled in Aya.
