## What it is
Massa is a decentralized Layer-1 blockchain written in Rust, using multithreaded blockclique technology to reach over 10,000 transactions per second across thousands of nodes. The repository contains the node implementation, consensus, and smart contract execution engine, with supporting SDKs for building decentralized applications.

## Use cases
- run a Massa blockchain node
- deploy decentralized applications with autonomous smart contracts
- host front-ends on-chain in a decentralized way
- build web3 apps connecting to Massa via JS client
- stake and participate in a decentralized PoS network

## When to choose
- you need a high-throughput, fully decentralized blockchain with on-chain web hosting
- you want to run a node or build dApps on Massa's ecosystem

## When to avoid
- you need EVM/Solidity compatibility or an established DeFi ecosystem
- you want a simple library rather than a full blockchain node
