2. Services Provided on the Platform

The Platform is a combination of peer-to-peer subnetworks of nodes transmitting transactions and blocks to execute value transfers and run smart contracts. The Core Cell Network ("CCN"), which is one of the subnetworks that constitute the Platform, verifies and executes transactions that occur on the Platform.
