KCC 1.0 is built on the Ethereum source code and is compatible with EVM smart contracts. It seeks to solve the dual problem of low performance and high cost on Ethereum. Currently, millions of blocks have been produced while the number of active addresses on the chain has exceeded hundreds of thousands.&#x20;

**EVM Compatible**

KCC is EVM compatible. Deploy and run your dApps on KCC with your favorite tooling for Ethereum.

**Fast Finality**

The average block time of KCC is 3 seconds. A typical transaction can be included in a block in less than 6 seconds. And this block is finalized if more than half of all validators add their blocks after it.

**Low Cost**

Gas fee is paid with KCS. Transfer your tokens around the world with a fraction of a cent.

**Safe and Secure**

Each block is validated by trusted validators with their identities and KCS as stakes.
