What is Eclipse?
Eclipse is a modular Layer 2 blockchain that combines the high-performance Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) with Ethereum's robust settlement layer. By integrating Solana's parallel execution capabilities with Ethereum's security and liquidity, Eclipse aims to provide a scalable and efficient environment for decentralized applications (dApps).
Architecture and Components
- Settlement Layer: Eclipse utilizes Ethereum for transaction settlement, ensuring security and leveraging Ethereum's extensive ecosystem.
- Execution Layer: The Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) serves as the execution environment, enabling high throughput and parallel processing of transactions.
- Data Availability: Celestia is employed for data availability, allowing for scalable and efficient data storage and retrieval.
- Fraud Proofs: RISC Zero provides zero-knowledge proofs to ensure the validity of transactions without revealing sensitive information.
Native Token
Eclipse does not have its own native token. Instead, it uses Ethereum's native currency, ETH, for gas fees and transaction costs. This approach simplifies user interaction and aligns with Ethereum's existing infrastructure.
Integration with Cryptoworth
Eclipse integrates with Cryptoworth to enhance financial clarity in digital asset accounting workflows. This integration enables users to efficiently track, categorize, and report transactions within the Eclipse ecosystem, ensuring accurate financial reporting and compliance with accounting standards.
Key Features
- High Throughput: Leveraging the SVM, Eclipse can process a large number of transactions per second, catering to high-demand applications.
- Low Transaction Costs: The efficient execution environment reduces gas fees, making it cost-effective for users and developers.
- Interoperability: Eclipse supports bridging assets between Ethereum and Solana, facilitating a seamless cross-chain experience.
- Developer-Friendly: With support for Rust-based smart contracts and compatibility with existing Solana tools, developers can easily build and deploy dApps on Eclipse.
Getting Started
- Set up an Eclipse-compatible wallet.
- Bridge ETH or other supported assets to Eclipse using the official bridge.
- Explore the Eclipse ecosystem and interact with available dApps.
