# Hash Network Layer 3 Stack

The Hash Network Layer 3 stack is a modular architecture designed to capture value across its DePIN and Value layers. Operating on an L2 rollup, it integrates critical components to enhance security, scalability, and user control, with near-zero transaction fees using a native token. This stack also centralizes the provenance of decentralized content, ensuring efficient and secure operations.

**Execution Layer:** Utilizing Arbitrum Orbit for high-throughput execution, ensuring dApps run efficiently at scale with reduced costs.

**Settlement Layer:** Leveraging Arbitrum Nova for secure and efficient transaction settlement, enhancing overall network reliability.

**Data Availability Layer:** The Eigen Layer ensures robust data availability, maintaining integrity during disruptions and guaranteeing reliable access to decentralized content.
