FAQ

Everything you need to know about NorChain

1
General

Nor is an EVM-compatible blockchain designed for speed, affordability, and social impact. We offer 3-second block times, sub-cent transaction fees, and automatically donate 5% of all network fees to verified charitable causes.

Nor is 20x faster (3s vs 12s blocks), 10,000x cheaper (<$0.001 vs $5-50 fees), and includes built-in charitable giving. We're fully EVM-compatible, so you can use the same tools and deploy the same contracts.

NorChain uses Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus with 500+ validators globally. Validators stake NOR tokens to secure the network and earn rewards, enabling ultra-low fees and fast finality while maintaining decentralization.
