Deep Dive
1. Purpose and technology
SOON describes itself as an SVM rollup project. The SVM, or Solana Virtual Machine, is the software environment that executes blockchain programs. A rollup processes transactions on a separate network and settles transaction results to another blockchain.
SOON Mainnet is a Layer 2 that settles on Ethereum. SOON Stack provides infrastructure for deploying SVM Layer 2 networks on different base chains. (SOON documentation)
2. Products and interoperability
The project’s three core products are SOON Mainnet, SOON Stack, and InterSOON. InterSOON is a cross network messaging system intended to help SOON networks communicate with one another and with other Layer 1 blockchains.
The project also describes technical approaches such as “decoupled SVM” and horizontal scaling, intended to improve execution performance and capacity. These are design goals, not guarantees of real world performance. (SOON documentation)
Conclusion
SOON is the token linked to a project that combines SVM based blockchain infrastructure with tools for deploying and connecting networks. How will SOON’s network tools support applications across different blockchains?null
