Neon EVM Launches on Solana Mainnet

[PARIS] – July 17, 2023 – Throughout ETHCC23, Neon EVM launched on the Solana Mainnet to assist shut the hole between the completely different programming, computing, and reminiscence fashions of Ethereum and Solana, bringing a low-friction resolution to permit EVM dApps to settle to Solana.

The Neon EVM program is a great contract on the Solana blockchain. It accepts wrapped Ethereum-like transactions and processes them on Solana.

Beforehand, when EVM dApps needed to leverage low-cost options, that they had to make use of a rollup or sidechain. By utilizing Solana because the settlement layer, an EVM is well-placed to outcompete such L2 options. The typical transaction charge for sending ETH on the Ethereum community is ~$2. The L2s supply between $0.5–$0.1, a saving of 4–20 occasions. As compared, Solana’s common transaction charges are ~0.00001 SOL ($0.0002) per transaction, 10,000 occasions saving. Preliminary assessments of Neon EVM in Devnet exhibit that the protocol interprets these optimizations in follow.

“We’re very excited to see Neon EVM dwell on Solana Mainnet,” says Marina Guryeva, Director of Neon Basis. “As soon as we repeat these assessments in manufacturing, we are going to current the figures based mostly on real-world knowledge.”

With the launch of Neon EVM on the Solana Mainnet, the Neon DAO is activated to start taking part in, and influencing the longer term growth of, Neon EVM.

About Neon EVM

Neon EVM is an Ethereum Digital Machine working as a wise contract on Solana. It offers builders the ability to straight deploy Ethereum dApps with minimal reconfiguration to the code, whereas benefiting from Solana’s technical benefits. It’s constructed with safety, decentralization, and sustainability as core tenants.
