Build Brilliant
Chromia combines blockchain with relational databases. For dapps with smarter features, fairer fees, and richer worlds.
Relational Blockchain, A Fix for Everything
Blockchains are too basic
Blockchains are primitive and experimental compared with databases. Traditional blockchains record information in a list format, making it difficult to store and manage complex data sets on-chain. They are also reliant on centralized servers and third-party providers.
We add Relational Databases to fix them
Chromia records structured blockchain data in linked relational tables. This innovation, which we call relational blockchain, makes it possible to query data directly on-chain, perform hundreds of read-and-write operations with a single transaction, and index block data in real-time.

We Aim to Live Up to the Blockchain's Original Promise
Chromia is the brainchild of ChromaWay, a pioneering blockchain company. Back in 2012, Alex Mizrahi, the CTO, started working together on what can be called the first implementation of user-defined assets on a blockchain. This revolutionary invention was called Colored Coins.
Since then, the three co-founders have been working on Chromia and have built a +300 global team, following their vision of a decentralized and publicly hosted application infrastructure.

Fees? Nah, Don’t Think So
Dapps pay for hosting in CHR and design their own fee models, enabling gas free transactions for end users.
