How does Somnia work?

Somnia is a high-throughput EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain optimized for real-time, stateful applications. Its MultiStream consensus lets each validator publish independent data chains aggregated by a consensus chain, enabling massive parallel transaction processing. Contracts compile to native machine code for near-native execution speed, supporting over 1 million TPS with sub-second finality.

Is Somnia a secure platform?

Security relies on a PBFT-inspired, Proof-of-Stake consensus and rigorous validator slashing for misbehavior. Somnia separates transaction data from finality, reducing attack surface while ensuring global order of transactions. The platform employs continuous monitoring, code audits, and a fixed token supply with deflationary economics to safeguard network integrity.

Developers write smart contracts in Solidity or other EVM-compatible languages and deploy on Somnia’s environment. Users interact with apps like games or social platforms enjoying instant finality and responsive on-chain state updates. The Somnia dashboard supports token staking, governance, and transaction monitoring with a growing ecosystem toolkit.

What services does Somnia offer?

Somnia provides a fast L1 blockchain ideal for gaming, digital identity, socialfi, metaverse interoperability, and DeFi primitives like order books. It offers predictable, low-latency database access through IceDB and advanced data compression technologies. The network facilitates mass-consumer interactive applications with tools for developers and communities to build seamless Web3 experiences.
