summary
Pi Squared builds a two-part stack: a proof of proof pipeline that turns program execution into a mathematical proof via the K framework and a settlement layer called FastSet that is a decentralized network (not a blockchain) that avoids global total order by having validators sign claims independently. Payments reach 150,000+ transactions per second on DevNet 2.0 (internal tests hit 250,000), supports pluggable languages (EVM, Java, Python), and falls back to consensus only for rare double-spend conflicts.
