Callisto will be a separate blockchain that integrates with the
ETC mainchain, and it will have its own native CLO token.
This means that if they fail, only they fail and what remains is a small sidechain entry on the
Lisk mainchain.
«Commenting or changing a profile picture doesn't necessarily require the security of the
ethereum mainchain,» Cullinan said.
This gives you complete freedom and independance without bloating the
ARK mainchain, but while still having the ability to utilize the entire ecosystem»
This way the connection
between mainchain and sidechain is created and the application directory can find all blockchain applications and services.
It's important to note that you have one limitation in the case you want to
use mainchain LSK tokens within your sidechain.
will be a separate blockchain that integrates with the
ETC mainchain, and it will have its own native CLO token.
All blockchain applications and services built on the Lisk platform have to be registered on the
Lisk mainchain.
Now that
the mainchain has been stabilized, the project has reached the first major milestone of its development roadmap.
Remember, a sidechain is a completely new and independent blockchain, and that's why Lisk allows for a special transaction type to transfer LSK tokens from
the mainchain to a sidechain.
Practically, the LSK tokens never leave
the mainchain, they are simply transfered to the sidechain owners Lisk account (on the mainchain!).
Consequently, Giveth intends to use a public Proof of Authority sidechain pegged to Ethereum's
mainchain.
If these updates fail, they can be revised; if they succeed, they can be incorporated into
the mainchain.»
