About Matrix
Matrix is a calldata-optimized rollup framework for BNB Chain, aiming to deliver high-performance, scalable and secure on-chain execution for high-throughput, data-intensive next-generation apps. Its modular architecture includes App-Chain SDKs, a Call-VM optimized for calldata workloads, a data-compression layer, and shared sequencing secured by BNB Chain L1 as settlement. By compressing execution data and using BNB Chain as the settlement layer, Matrix targets predictable low fees and fast confirmations.
Positioned as an 'unstoppable' execution layer, Matrix suits DEXs, payment rails, gaming engines, AI-agent systems and real-time data services, emphasizing throughput, low gas and cross-chain messaging. Its docs list modular components, read-only RPC and a cross-chain messaging layer, using BNB Chain's consensus and data availability as an immutable backbone for real-time rollup execution.
Matrix AI Network switched to a new mainnet on August 8, 2026, with the legacy chain closing at the end of September. Maximum supply rose from 1 billion to 2 billion MAN and is permanently capped, with 27% airdropped to existing holders and node operators weighted by holding time; migration is 1:1 and old private keys, mnemonics and keystores generate EVM-format addresses. Proof-of-work gave way to an L2 design of sequencer, validators and staking, standard-EVM compatible, with every biodata upload burning MAN at the protocol level.
Matrix's validators and multiple sequencers will open progressively to the community, starting with staking and block production spread across node operators before outside validators join. The application layer grows around biodata consent, pricing and compliant settlement, with the new chain carrying biodata real-world assets.
