Object-centric model → Instead of global accounts, every asset or smart contract state is an independent object with its own ownership.

Parallel execution → Transactions touching only owned objects can run in parallel without consensus, giving massive throughput.

Consensus only when needed → Only transactions involving shared objects (like AMM pools or marketplaces) go through Narwhal + Bullshark consensus.

Horizontal scalability → Validators can process different

Sui's design enables:

• Object-centric model: Independent assets with own ownership
• Parallel execution: High throughput for transactions on owned objects
• Consensus on demand: Only shared object transactions require consensus
• Horizontal scalability: Validators process different transactions in parallel

This architecture allows for efficient, scalable, and high-performance transactions on the Sui network.
