Autheo + Stacks

Autheo is a Layer-0 Operating System with an integrated Layer-1 blockchain, offering native AI (THEO AI), post-quantum cryptography, AutheoID sovereign identity, and a full DevHub, all in one unified platform. Stacks is Layer 2 on Bitcoin focused on The Leading Bitcoin L2 for Smart Contracts, Apps, DeFi. Autheo's unified architecture adds capabilities that complement Stacks by delivering compute, storage, AI inference, and sovereign identity without the need for fragmented tooling.

Autheo delivers everything Stacks offers and extends it further. Where Stacks uses Proof of Transfer (PoX) consensus, Autheo uses Proof of Authority (PoA) with deterministic rotation for predictable, high-performance finality. Autheo also brings native THEO AI, AutheoID post-quantum identity, the Autheo Eigensphere Engine (AEE) runtime, and a fully integrated DevHub, all as part of a single, cohesive platform.

Autheo implements post-quantum cryptography using NIST-standard algorithms: Kyber (key encapsulation), Dilithium (signatures), and Falcon (signatures). These secure validator identity and communications against both classical and quantum attacks. Autheo has also partnered with Halborn, an industry leader with 2,500+ blockchain security audits, for ongoing security review.
