About Semantic Layer

Semantic Layer is a protocol of blockchain infrastructure that adds a higher level of alignment to dApps. It achieves this by proposing a radical idea known as Application-Controlled Execution (ACE) of dApps to overcome the shortcomings and inefficiency of the classic execution layers of the blockchain.

Semantic Layer enables dApps to manage the sequences of the transactions of their users and the conditions, rather than depending on miners or validators. This new design changes the way dApps communicate with a blockchain, which enhances scalability, custom execution, and internalizes miner extractable value (MEV).

By this, we mean that the Semantic Layer develops a programmable transaction layer whereby dApps and users gain greater control over the order of transactions (sequencing), the capture of MEV (or avoidance of it), and the alignment of incentives amongst stakeholders.

This addresses an important, yet to some extent, under-the-hood issue in blockchain protocol design: the manner in which value is obtained and the manner in which fairness is ensured in transaction sequencing. This solves the MEV problem that many blockchain protocols have acknowledged.
