Soon (SOON) is a high-performance SVM (Solana Virtual Machine) Rollup. It functions to bring the speed and efficiency of Solana to the broader Ethereum ecosystem. While traditional rollups often struggle with data bottlenecks and high execution costs, Soon utilizes a Decoupled SVM architecture.

One of its core features is the decoupled architecture. By separating the execution layer from the settlement and data availability layers, Soon achieves unparalleled scalability.

While SOON leverages SVM technology, it is designed to settle on various Layer 1s, including Ethereum. Soon also provides a comprehensive toolset for developers to deploy interoperable dApps, aiming for “universal connectivity” across blockchains.

Soon has maintained a steady trajectory in both user acquisition and technical milestones since its Alpha debut in November. Since the first launch, Soon has successfully integrated with major data availability layers like Celestia and EigenDA.

This technical progress has attracted a wave of developers migrating from Solana-native environments to the Soon Layer 2, seeking the lower gas fees and higher throughput.
