Unichain is an Ethereum Layer 2 network built by Uniswap with native DeFi support, designed to unify fragmented liquidity across chains while maintaining Ethereum-grade security. It operates as a Stage 1 rollup with permissionless fault proofs and leverages a trusted execution environment for fast finality and sub-second block times. Integrated with the Optimism Superchain and ERC-7683, Unichain enables seamless, single-block cross-chain swaps and composability across L2s.
The key benefits of Unichain include dramatically reduced gas fees and MEV exposure due to faster block times and more efficient transaction execution. It lowers barriers for developers and users by offering low-cost, high-performance infrastructure for DeFi applications. Its open and decentralized architecture encourages validator participation and enhances liquidity flow across ecosystems.
