Constellation Network is a feeless, scalable blockchain ecosystem where projects can build their own custom blockchains (metagraphs). It has everything you’d expect from a blockchain—tokens, decentralized applications and wallets—but with a unique architecture that makes it faster, more efficient, and highly flexible.
Any projects, company or even person can build on Constellation by creating their own metagraphs—custom blockchains tailored to their needs.
Users interact with these projects using websites, decentralized applications, crypto wallets and tokens.
The network itself does not impose fees to users, meaning each project can decide if any fees are charged to their users
It’s flexible scalable and interoperable, metagraphs can be as simple a token or evolve to complex enterprise usecases, on Constellation there are virtually no limits for what can be built.
To understand how Constellation works, here are the key building blocks of the network:
Metagraphs are independent blockchains built on Constellation. They can be simple (like a single token) or complex (powering enterprise applications). Each metagraph has full control over its rules, data, and fee structure.
The Hypergraph is the foundation of Constellation. It acts as a secure, scalable, and interoperable layer that connects all metagraphs, allowing them to communicate with each other and external blockchains.
DAG is the native currency of Constellation Network. It powers the ecosystem by enabling:
Feeless peer-to-peer transactions
Rewards for node validators who secure the network
Collateral for running nodes, ensuring network integrity
Interaction with decentralized applications (dApps) and metagraphs
DAG is the backbone of Constellation, fueling both network operations and user interactions
Users can store and manage tokens, interact with metagraphs, and access decentralized applications through crypto wallets that support Constellation Network.
No Gas Fees – The network itself doesn’t charge fees; projects set their own rules.
Unlimited Scalability – The system grows with demand, ensuring speed and efficiency.
True Flexibility – From simple tokens to enterprise-grade applications, anything can be built.
Interoperability – Projects on Constellation can seamlessly interact with each other and external blockchains.
Constellation Network is a feeless, scalable, and highly flexible blockchain ecosystem where anyone—from individual developers to enterprises—can build and interact with decentralized applications, custom blockchains (metagraphs), and digital assets.
With its unique architecture, interoperability, and limitless scalability, Constellation provides a powerful foundation for innovation. Whether you're looking to launch a token, build a complex application, or explore new blockchain use cases, Constellation gives you the tools to do it.
