" summary

Convex presents a permissionless, massively replicated public database that uses Clojure-style immutable cells, a compact binary encoding (a vector of 0–100000 elements encoding to ~70 bytes), and an append-only content-addressed local DB called Edge (about 1,000 lines). Transactions run deterministically on the Convex VM using Convex Lisp (on-chain compiler, lambdas, macros), accounts are keyed by 32-byte public keys, and a free testnet sandbox lets developers deploy and test smart contracts.
