Saito is a L1 blockchain that solves several theoretical problems at the intersection of computer science and economics. Key to the solution is the existence of an unsybillable routing payout that rewards the fee-collecting nodes in the network for the work they do attracting and servicing users. A description of how the consensus mechanism works can be found here.
The ability to correct incentive misalignments that are insolvable in proof-of-work and proof-of-stake mechanisms puts Saito Consensus into a league of its own. Rather than paying for extractive forms of work like hashing or staking, Saito pays the nodes that feed data to users and route their transactions into the network. Nodes suddenly compete to contribute rather than extract wealth from the network.
In addition to information the network and our applications, this wiki also contains information on our project history and roadmap, details on the network tokenomics and step-by-step tutorials on how to get started. Or you can skip the documentation and just go try out Saito directly.
Want to help? This wiki is a community-maintained knowledge base. We could use help keeping our documentation updated, and improving the resources that exist here to help others understand why Saito matters and how they can help us build the world's most powerful and secure permissionless network -- we have a page here on how to contribute.
