Eclipse: The Speed of Solana and Liquidity of Ethereum?
Jake Kennis

Introduction

Eclipse is a new L2 on Ethereum that uses the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM). With this, Eclipse brings the best of both worlds: access to Ethereum's liquidity/security properties and the SVM's high performance and speed. In other words, Solana-native apps can now launch on Eclipse, and the L2 benefits from the stack’s modularity, merging the two ecosystems where each other may lack - liquidity and scalability. Not only can Solana-native apps launch there, but EVM apps will also be able to co-exist on Eclipse through Neon EVM, which brings full EVM compatibility to Eclipse. Because Neon EVM is deployed as a smart contract on any SVM-chain (i.e Eclipse, Solana, etc.), EVM-based apps such as Aave can now get access to greater...
