Bring the High-Performance Execution Environment to Ethereum

SOON Mainnet is a general-purpose Layer 2 that settles on Ethereum, with its core execution layer powered by Decoupled SVM.

Why build yet another Layer 2 on Ethereum?

In a fragmented Web3 landscape, building a new Layer 2 and rollup stack may seem counterintuitive. However, our vision aims to eliminate barriers by establishing a unified foundation for developers from various ecosystems to collaborate and innovate seamlessly.

A key aspect of our approach is decoupling Ethereum from the EVM. While Ethereum embodies a unique spirit and culture, its virtual machine serves merely as a tool for large-scale applications. To overcome development hindrances caused by the EVM, we advocate for the adoption of Solana Virtual Machine (SVM).

We believe that the SVM offers the most effective path toward widespread blockchain adoption, based on its active user base, ecosystem quality, and significant transaction throughput. Achieving true adoption requires more than just Solana-based builders — it requires participation from Ethereum (EVM) developers and builders across other major ecosystems. This is precisely where the SOON Mainnet come into play: enabling developers to leverage the benefits of SVM.
