Blended execution allows programs written for different virtual machines (VMs) to work together within a unified execution environment. Smart contracts, programming languages and tools built for disparate VMs share the same blockchain state, allowing them to communicate seamlessly. This results in real-time, atomic composability between these otherwise isolated paradigms, making it possible for developers to create cohesive applications, leveraging multiple programming languages and tools without compatibility concerns. It also enables existing apps built for different VMs to benefit from combined network effects and shared liquidity. The upside? Users can interact with apps across a blended execution network without needing to bridge or switch wallets.
