| **Solana** | Finality ~12.8 s today — **Alpenglow is not on mainnet** (live on a community test cluster since 05/2026; mainnet target Q3 2026) | Fees pass (~$0.00025). **Re-evaluate the day Alpenglow activates** (~150 ms promised) — would then be a serious candidate. |
| **Avalanche** | Finality ~1–2 s — not reliably sub-second | |
| **Hedera** | Finality ~3 s | HCS fixed-USD fees ($0.0008/msg) are a predictability gold standard, and Hedera runs SHA-384/CNSA-suite internally — but HCS messages are **not smart-contract-readable**, which independently breaks the §6.2.1 uncontested path (see [#6](https://github.com/byte5ai/anp/issues/6)). SPEC §13.4's Hedera row needs this caveat. |

| **Algorand** | Finality ~2.8 s | **The only chain with shipped protocol-level PQC**: Falcon-signed State Proofs (since 2022). Worth watching as PQC prior art despite the finality miss. |
| **MegaETH** (and "real-time" L2s) | "~10 ms" is centralized-sequencer preconfirmation; true finality inherits Ethereum L1 (~13 min) | No L2 can honestly claim sub-second *finality* today. |
| **Base / Arbitrum / OP** | L1-anchored finality ~13–17 min | Strongest ERC-8004/EAS/x402 ecosystem — remains the natural home of SPEC §13.3's *interop* profile, just not of sub-second settlement. |

## Reference DLT

The spec is chain-agnostic. The **reference profile** targets **IOTA Rebased** (Move VM, sub-second finality, near-zero / sponsored fees). Hard selection criteria for any chain: sub-second finality, a credible post-quantum path at the protocol layer, ultra-low fees, programmable escrow, programmatic wallets. Native EUR/USD stablecoins are a valued nice-to-have. An EVM interoperability profile (ERC-8004 / EAS / x402) is available but optional.
The spec is chain-agnostic. The **reference profile** targets **IOTA Rebased** (Move VM, sub-second finality, near-zero / sponsored fees). Hard selection criteria for any chain: sub-second finality, ultra-low fees, programmable escrow, programmatic wallets, and post-quantum *pairing* at the binding layer (always satisfiable — ANP's binding signatures are off-chain, §6.5). A chain's *account-level* post-quantum roadmap and native EUR/USD stablecoins are valued nice-to-haves, graded rather than hard (no candidate chain ships PQC accounts today — see [`DLT_EVALUATION.md`](./DLT_EVALUATION.md)). An EVM interoperability profile (ERC-8004 / EAS / x402) is available but optional.
