Rise Chain Expands Vision: Programmable On-Chain Markets for High-Performance Trading

Rise Chain, an Ethereum Layer 2 platform, has announced a shift in its focus from a general-purpose solution to an infrastructure designed specifically for on-chain markets. This strategic change aims to address the limitations of current L2s in supporting high-speed trading and specialized DeFi execution. The initiative involves two key components: RISE MarketCore and RISEx. The new vision, outlined in the team’s November 13, 2025 announcement, positions Rise Chain as a driving force behind programmable on-chain markets.
