With the debut of its Devnet , Somnia—the dream computer for a fully on-chain world —offered the world a preview of its high-performance blockchain, which is intended to manage reactive mass-consumer apps like as gaming, SocialFi, DeFi, and metaverses. Developers and Web3 users may now independently test the blockchain and evaluate Somnia’s 400k TPS claims of unparalleled speed.

Even in high-density settings, the Somnia Devnet internal testing have shown remarkable performance metrics, accomplishing over 400,000 transactions per second with sub-second finality and transaction costs under a penny.

Somnia does this by using a novel blockchain that incorporates advancements in consensus, networking, databases, and execution. Read/write speeds of 15–100 nanoseconds are made possible by Somnia’s database, and 10–20 times more data can be sent between nodes thanks to its networking.

By enabling instant reactions to on-chain events directly in Solidity, Somnia enables developers to create fully decentralized reactive applications, such as games that react to real-time events. It also enables developers to build natively using familiar tools thanks to its performance capabilities and full EVM compatibility.

To join the network’s first developer cohort, developers who are interested in developing on Somnia are encouraged to apply for whitelisting. Somnia is providing technical guidance, funding, and go-to-market strategies in addition to a $10 million grant program to help innovators see their ideas through to completion.

The first infrastructure partners of Somnia have already joined the effort to expand the Somnia ecosystem. The block explorer will be powered by Hemera’s Social Scan , while Ankr will provide RPC services for the Somnia network. Thirdweb will also provide developers access to EVM dApp tools.

Somnia will be available for public testing at certain hours, however the majority of Devnets are restricted to the public. In order to get as much input as possible and thoroughly evaluate its capabilities in a real-world setting, Somnia is creating in public. Using Somnia Test Tokens (STT), which can be obtained via a faucet, users will be able to test the initial set of dApps via the Devnet, which includes games, NFTs, and a DEX.

The Devnet launch offers developers and users a rare chance to interact with the EVM L1, which promises to put the world’s data on-chain, and experience Somnia’s technology. To learn more about Devnet access , the $10 million grant program, and whitelisting, developers who are interested in joining the ecosystem should visit Somnia’s new developer cohort page .

With the quickest and most economical EVM Layer 1 blockchain, Somnia is putting the world’s data on-chain. It can handle over 400k TPS with sub-second finality and sub-cent costs, even in high-density situations. The novel Multistream Consensus with faster sequential execution, the unique IceDB database, sophisticated compression methods, and immediate response to on-chain events directly in Solidity are all examples of Somnia’s innovative design. The only blockchain that is completely capable of supporting mass-consumer, real-time, reactive dApps with millions of users is Somnia.
