Eclipse Revolutionizes Ethereum Layer-2 with Parallel Execution

Eclipse is redefining the landscape of Ethereum layer-2 scaling solutions by introducing a novel approach to execution that breaks away from the conventional EVM model. Unlike most rollups currently in development, Eclipse leverages the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) and integrates it into an Ethereum-anchored environment. This innovative design brings deterministic parallelism to Ethereum’s rollup stack, enabling faster transaction processing and improved performance under high network load. This report explores how this unique approach emerged, its potential benefits, and what challenges lie ahead for the broader layer-2 ecosystem.
