About Blockchains

About Somnia

Somnia is the fastest and most efficient EVM Layer 1 blockchain ever, capable of processing over 1M+ transactions per second with sub-second finality. It is suitable for serving millions of users and building real-time mass-consumer applications like gaming, social applications, metaverses, NFTs, and more, all fully on-chain.

About Ethereum

Ethereum emerges as a decentralized, open-source blockchain platform empowering developers to craft and deploy smart contracts alongside dApps. Pioneering the smart contract concept, Ethereum enables self-executing agreements with terms directly encoded into its blockchain, eliminating the need for intermediaries. Additionally, Ethereum serves as a hub for the creation and exchange of NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) and various digital assets. Its intrinsic cryptocurrency, Ether (ETH), facilitates network transactions and incentivizes miners to uphold network security. Ethereum's evolution to Ethereum 2.0 introduces a proof-of-stake (PoS) mechanism, aiming to enhance scalability and energy efficiency.
