WHAT DOES CATALYSIS DO? Normally, if you want to build a decentralized network (like an AVS, BVS, or DVN), you have to deal with a lot of hard security stuff from setting up validators, making sure people can't cheat, punishing bad behavior, etc. This is complicated and time-consuming. Catalysis acts like a helper platform that makes it easy and safe to create and run AVSs, BVSs, and DVNs. Normally, if you build an AVS, BVS, or DVN, you would need to: Find or build your own validators, Set up your own security system, Create punishments for bad actors Manage upgrades and coordination. That's a lot of hard work. Instead, Catalysis gives you a ready-made security and management system. It connects your AVS, BVS, or DVN to a pool of professional validators automatically. It handles the rules, security, slashing (punishments), staking (deposits), and upgrades behind the scenes. Think of it like this: You’re opening a store (AVS, BVS, or DVN). Instead of hiring your own security guards, managers, and maintenance people, Catalysis gives you a full professional team right away. You just focus on running your store — Catalysis protects it.

## Intro to Catalysis:

WHAT IS CATALYSIS

Catalysis is known for building the first Security Abstraction Layer but what does that even mean?

You see when it comes to Web3 security there's ALOT involved from setting up validators to implementing rules, giving out rewards and slashing in case of offences, Web3 Security has to do with a lot and sometimes it can be a hassle especially for upcoming developers and this is where CATALYSIS comes to save the day.

WHAT DOES CATALYSIS DO?

Normally, if you want to build a decentralized network (like an AVS, BVS, or DVN), you have to deal with a lot of hard security stuff from setting up validators, making sure people can't cheat, punishing bad behavior, etc.
This is complicated and time-consuming.

Catalysis acts like a helper platform that makes it easy and safe to create and run AVSs, BVSs, and DVNs.

Normally, if you build an AVS, BVS, or DVN, you would need to:

  • Find or build your own validators,

  • Set up your own security system,

  • Create punishments for bad actors

  • Manage upgrades and coordination.
    That's a lot of hard work.

Instead, Catalysis gives you a ready-made security and management system.
It connects your AVS, BVS, or DVN to a pool of professional validators automatically.
It handles the rules, security, slashing (punishments), staking (deposits), and upgrades behind the scenes.

Think of it like this:

  • You’re opening a store (AVS, BVS, or DVN).

  • Instead of hiring your own security guards, managers, and maintenance people, Catalysis gives you a full professional team right away.

  • You just focus on running your store — Catalysis protects it.
