What is Tanssi?

Tanssi is a decentralized infrastructure protocol that significantly streamlines the deployment of customizable appchains (application-specific blockchains). It is often described as "Kubernetes for blockchains" because it abstracts away the complex infrastructure and heavy lifting typically involved in launching a chain, such as block production, security, data availability, and necessary tooling.

By turning the friction of blockchain deployment into an on-demand service layer, Tanssi helps builders to deploy sovereign, high-performance networks with full control over their stack, allowing them to focus resources on business logic and user experience instead of infrastructure overhead.

Why This Matters

Launching a blockchain traditionally takes months of infrastructure setup, validator bootstrapping, and complex security design. That's like spending half a year building your own AWS from scratch before deploying your first API. Tanssi changes this by turning months of setup into minutes.

It gives you everything you need to spin up a custom, production-ready appchain so you can focus on what truly matters: your product logic, your users, and your growth.

For investors and institutions, understanding this appchain movement is key to evaluating the next phase of blockchain innovation, where protocols vertically integrate their tech stack to capture more value and tailor user experiences.

Core Insight

Tanssi abstracts away the infrastructure layer (validators, networking, security) and replaces it with a decentralized, modular building blocks that lets you plug in your logic and go live.
