Somnia is a high-performance, cost-efficient EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain capable of processing over 1,000,000 transactions per second (TPS) with sub-second finality. It is suitable for serving millions of users and building real-time mass-consumer applications like games, social applications, metaverses, and more, all fully on-chain. In early MVPs, the Somnia blockchain achieved 1,000,000 TPS running over 100 nodes distributed globally. This TPS was ERC-20 transfers between several hundred thousand accounts. Our next step will be deploying Uniswap, measuring how many swaps per second our chain can do, and simulating a real-world NFT mint similar to the Otherside other deed mint. This actual user workload-style benchmarking is a true way to assess blockchain performance.
