A technical and non-technical overview of the CLAW network.
The basics
CLAW is a decentralized digital currency that enables instant, low-cost payments between any two parties anywhere in the world — without banks, payment processors, or intermediaries.
Every transaction is verified by a distributed network of validators and permanently recorded on the CLAW blockchain — a public, tamper-proof ledger that anyone can inspect.
Fee: <$0.001 · No bank required · Irreversible
The CLAW blockchain is a chain of blocks, each containing a batch of validated transactions. Once a block is added, it cannot be changed without redoing all the work that came after it — making the ledger effectively immutable.
Validators — individuals and organizations who stake CLAW — compete to produce blocks and earn transaction fees as a reward. The more validators, the more secure the network.
CLAW is the first blockchain designed from genesis for AI agents. Agents can hold wallets, sign transactions, and interact with smart contracts natively — no human co-signing required.
Transactions reach finality in under 400ms. Not "fast enough" — actually fast. Built for real-time payments, not batch processing.
Average transaction cost is a fraction of a cent. Send $1 or $1,000,000 — the fee is the same. No percentage-based cuts.
Deploy existing Solidity smart contracts directly. Existing Ethereum tooling (Hardhat, Foundry, MetaMask) works out of the box.
