Frequently Asked Questions
Aventus onboards enterprises to Web3, enabling them to generate new revenue streams, improve operational efficiencies, and future-proof their business.
It works with each enterprise to scope out potential use cases, and customize a SaaS-style product from its extensive suite of modular, composable architecture, as well as maintains and manages the solution – so enterprises can focus on what they do best.
We define enterprise-grade with three categories:
- Investment into technological IP: Aventus owns blockchain tooling and infrastructure IP with a total investment of over $30M.
- Leadership credentials: Aventus’ technology team is led by Andrey Brozhko, former Corda Enterprise Director at R3 and Product at Oracle with over 20 years’ experience leading enterprise product software and engineering efforts.
- Process: Aventus implements best practices for software development and operation from ISO27002 and SOC1/2 standards and the platform is periodically audited by Digital Catapult, the British Government’s agency for digital technology.
We have a number of processes in place to ensure that Aventus is a secure environment. Since our launch in 2021, we have had no hacks, forks or breaks.
- Independent audit for all smart contracts, and critical code modules
- Professional development and quality assurance processes
- Encryption at rest and in transit is mandatory for all applications for all data
- Annual independent penetration testing for all internet-facing software, including node ‘gossip’ communication interface
- Hashicorp-based secrets management solution for all keys used in live applications. Keys never leave the vault
- Enterprise-grade logging and monitoring setup for managed nodes, applications and internal systems
- Careful selection and strict vetting for all third-party components and libraries
- Automatic backup and disaster recovery system for all mission-critical systems (including own validator nodes) to ensure availability and business continuity
- Aggressive maintenance schedule for all software with frequent components updates
- 2-factor authentication enforced for all systems and services
The Aventus Network is an instantiation of the Aventus blockspace offering, where any clients who aren’t ready to leverage a blockspace offering can trial the solution. It is particularly suited to loyalty / cashback providers.
It enables cashback providers to increase efficiencies from a business perspective and provide a better user experience for the end client.

AVT, the Aventus Network’s native token, is a utility token. It is used in the Aventus Network for achieving scalability, speed, and cost effectiveness by aligning the economic incentives of participants.
- Security: AVT is used to incentivise transaction processors (or validators), who stake AVT to operate a node. Validators are personally damaged by losing their AVT deposit if they engage in damaging behaviour to the Network.
- Governance: the Aventus Network operates based on community governance. AVT holders can determine the outcome of key decisions around the future of the network, where 1 AVT = 1 vote.
- Gas: transaction originators pay AVT as gas fees to the transaction processor. The exact cost per transaction is determined by a free market in which the originator specifies what they
are willing to pay and the processor processes if they are happy with the fees.
