Eclipse Story
Eclipse Network originated as a blockchain scaling project aimed at addressing the limitations of Layer-1 blockchains like Solana and Ethereum by bringing the best of both worlds together. Eclipse aims to provide customizable Layer-2 rollups that enhance blockchain throughput while maintaining the security of established networks.
By utilizing the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) for execution and Celestia for data availability, Eclipse positions itself as a "universal Layer-2" that supports a range of blockchain ecosystems. In 2024, the network raised an additional $50 million to accelerate its mainnet launch, further solidifying its place in the blockchain ecosystem. Current developments include partnerships with notable dApps such as Rarible and Pyth Network, and the team plans to host community events to boost developer engagement.
