# L1 Architecture

### **Tech Architecture: BaseCAMP and SideCAMPs**

Camp Network introduces a scalable architecture designed to overcome the high-latency challenges faced by dApps on traditional L1s. The system is built around two key components:

1. **BaseCAMP:** The primary Layer 1 blockchain optimized for IP management.
2. **SideCAMPs:** Application-specific chains that settle back to BaseCAMP, providing dedicated blockspace for each app.

**Key Benefits**

* **Dedicated Blockspace:** Each app operates on its own SideCAMP, avoiding congestion and ensuring faster performance.
* **App-Specific Sequencing:**  Each Application controls app-native transaction flow and block production, enabling performance optimization and revenue capture.&#x20;
  * Sidecamps can use the camp node for sequencing with base sequencing to achieve lower latencies and align with the base layer.
* **Enhanced Security:** Interoperability between the CAMP ecosystem and external networks is secured by a Decentralized Verifier Network (DVN). This network monitors all transactions, votes on their validity, and achieves consensus through majority agreement. These verifiers derive economic security from the native token.
* **Developer-Friendly:** Sidecamps can support various runtime environments and submit state roots to the basecamp for settlement, creating opportunities for developers from different ecosystems to integrate with Camp. Runtimes such as the Solana Virtual Machine or Cosmos WASM can be settled on Camp using state roots, similar to optimistic rollups.&#x20;

This architecture ensures speed, scalability, and security while providing developers with tools to build high-performing, interoperable dApps.

### **Proof of Provenance Protocol: Origin + mAItrix**

Camp’s **Proof of Provenance Protocol** streamlines IP management and agent-driven workflows using two key frameworks:

* **Origin Framework:** Simplifies IP onboarding and remixing by abstracting complex onchain processes for a seamless user experience.
* **mAItrix Framework:** Enables the deployment and management of AI agents that can train on IP and generate new IP autonomously.
