What is Eclipse?

Eclipse is a high-performance, Ethereum-settled Layer 2 that combines the security of Ethereum, the parallelism of the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM), and deep hardware/software co-design to deliver unprecedented performance for blockchain applications.

Unlike traditional L2s that inherit the architectural constraints of Layer 1s, Eclipse separates performance from security. By anchoring to Ethereum for settlement and security guarantees, while engineering every other layer: execution, data availability, proving with performance-first principles, Eclipse unlocks what we call GigaCompute: orders of magnitude more computational capacity for decentralized applications.

The result is a platform capable of supporting AI workloads, real-time gaming, high-frequency DeFi, and decentralized infrastructure (DePIN) at scale, without sacrificing the security, composability, or liquidity of Ethereum.
