Enshrined Coprocessors

The Nexus Exchange will be the first and flagship enshrined coprocessors on the Nexus Layer 1. Over time, the ability to natively enshrine applications in the underlying blockchain will lead to gains in onchain performance and scalability.

What's New

Introducing USDX

USDX is the native dollar of the Nexus economy—quoted in every market, used by every app, and settled across every trade. It simplifies how capital moves by replacing fragmented stablecoins with a single, unified unit of account. Built for speed, scale, and verifiability.

What is Verifiable Finance

Verifiable finance is a new financial paradigm where transactions, computations, and rules are guaranteed by cryptographic proof rather than institutional trust—making correctness, transparency, and fairness default, even at global scale and high speed.

Coprocessor Architecture

Nexus coprocessors are L1-native, deterministic execution engines that deliver real-time financial performance with full EVM composability, combining high-frequency execution and shared liquidity through a dual execution architecture built for verifiable, programmable finance.

Node Rush

Node Running is Nexus’s community-driven program to grow the Hexgrid: contributors complete quests, form teams, earn rewards, and build onchain reputation by expanding network connectivity and compute—helping power the Layer 1 for verifiable finance.
