  1. Core Concepts

Heima Layer 1 Network

An explanation of the Heima Layer 1 Network

Heima Layer 1 Network

Heima Layer 1 is a Substrate-based blockchain that serves as the coordination layer for intents, agents, and cross-chain execution.

It goes beyond settlement, offering a programmable environment purpose-built for:

  • High-throughput, low-latency execution (targeting 500ms block time)

  • A transparent registry of agents and intent fillers

  • Native cross-chain communication via proxy handlers and prebuilt modules

By anchoring every action on-chain, Heima ensures intent execution is fully traceable and verifiable.

Substrate-Based Flexibility

Heima leverages Substrate to provide:

  • WASM + EVM compatibility for flexible execution environments

  • Native governance modules for treasury, staking, Bounty and agent certification

  • Runtime upgradeability without hard forks

  • Decentralized schedulers for intent queueing, retries, and timed execution

Built for Auditable Automation

Transparency and verifiability are core to Heima’s design:

  • Unified actor registry for all agents, fillers, and relayers

  • Omni-account anchoring links executions to cryptographic identities across chains and off-chain environments

  • Cross-domain traceability via attestations and signed logs

  • TEE-secured proofs for off-chain actions involving sensitive data

  • Full intent lifecycle visibility from submission to final state change

Heima Layer 1 forms a trust-minimized coordination fabric where all executions are verifiable, composable, and interoperable—supporting secure automation across heterogeneous systems.
