Janction Teams Up with Arichain and Ari Wallet to Expand Blockchain Capabilities

Janction officially announced a partnership with Arichain and Ari Wallet, integrating their Layer 2 blockchain with a high-performance Layer 1 platform. This collaboration links Janction’s GPU-sharing Layer 2 system to Arichain’s multi-VM single consensus ecosystem, while the Ari Wallet simplifies digital asset management. 

Details about the partnership have not yet been disclosed, but the team is expected to share more soon.

Understanding Arichain and Ari Wallet

Arichain is a Layer 1 blockchain built for high throughput and user-friendly development. It can reportedly process up to 300,000 transactions per second (TPS) with a 3-second block time. Its consensus model, Delegated Reputation Proof-of-Stake (DRPoS), is designed to combine security and speed while maintaining decentralization.

The platform supports familiar programming languages for developers building decentralized applications (dApps). This approach lowers entry barriers, making blockchain more accessible for mass adoption.

The Ari Wallet is a digital wallet integrated with Arichain, also known as AriChain. Launched on January 7, 2025, it allows users to log in via email rather than complex seed phrases, simplifying access to blockchain assets. The wallet also supports security protocols that ensure safe handling of the network’s native token, $ARI, which partially funds ecosystem development through foundation allocations.

Janction Layer 2: Combining Blockchain and AI Compute

Janction’s Layer 2 blockchain addresses two persistent issues: high GPU costs and slow transaction speeds. Built on Ethereum, the platform uses Optimistic Rollup technology to reduce costs and accelerate processing compared to Ethereum’s Layer 1.

A core innovation is the GPU Pool, a decentralized cloud where users can rent high-performance GPUs like NVIDIA H100 or A100 on an hourly basis. These GPUs are sourced from cryptocurrency miners, data centers, and gaming PCs. This system enables small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to access AI compute resources at lower costs, supporting tasks such as generative AI, 3D modeling, and other resource-intensive workloads.

Janction integrates AI tasks into smart contracts, enabling automated execution of machine learning processes. Components like data feeds, model training, GPU allocation, and data labeling are coordinated within the Layer 2 environment to ensure efficiency and security.

Origins and Development of Janction

Janction originated as an incubated project by JasmyLab Inc., a subsidiary of Jasmy, in 2023. Jasmy is known for its Layer 1 consortium blockchain, which emphasizes gas-free operations and modular architecture suitable for IoT devices.

The project raised seed funding in February 2025 from investors including Cogitent Ventures, DWF Labs, and Waterdrip Capital. At the same time, the Janction testnet launched on the Optimism OP Stack, providing an EVM-compatible Layer 2 environment for AI workloads.

Janction’s roadmap for FY2025 outlines quarterly milestones focused on scaling nodes, expanding developer tools, and integrating real-world applications.

Working with Jasmy: Leveraging Industry Experience

Janction benefits from Jasmy’s established ecosystem and community. Jasmy supports the project with node incentives, governance integration, and secure data infrastructure. The layered architecture includes:

• Data Availability (DA) Layer: Ensures efficient and cost-effective storage of blockchain and AI data.
• AI Execution Layer: Coordinates AI models, GPU computing, and data feeds for automated processing.
• Governance Layer: $JCT token holders can participate in decisions and earn rewards for network participation.

This integration allows Janction to offer a secure, verifiable, and decentralized AI compute platform for businesses and developers.

Key Advantages of the Partnership

• High-Speed Blockchain Support: Arichain’s 300,000 TPS and 3-second block time ensure rapid transaction processing for Layer 2 operations.
• User-Friendly Wallet: Ari Wallet simplifies onboarding and reduces friction for users managing blockchain assets.
• Decentralized AI Compute: Janction’s GPU Pool enables cost-efficient access to high-performance computing.
• Interoperable Tokens: $JCT and $ARI tokenomics facilitate staking, rewards, and ecosystem development.
• Transparent Resource Allocation: All contributions and workloads are verifiable through smart contracts.

Conclusion

The Janction-Arichain-Ari Wallet partnership establishes a technical bridge between a high-speed Layer 1 blockchain and a Layer 2 decentralized AI compute platform. By combining rapid transaction processing, a user-friendly wallet, and decentralized GPU resources, the collaboration enhances efficiency, security, and accessibility for developers, enterprises, and AI service providers.
