Somnia Network Selects InfStones as Mainnet Validator

We’re excited to announce our partnership with Somnia, a high-performance, EVM-compatible Layer-1 designed for fully on-chain games, social platforms, and AI-driven experiences. Optimized for scalability and cost-effectiveness, Somnia is capable of processing over one million transactions per second with sub-second finality and sub-cent fees.

Why Somnia

Somnia rethinks blockchain architecture end-to-end to deliver predictable, high-throughput execution while providing developer-friendly tools:

• MultiStream Consensus separates data production from finality, a PoS BFT approach inspired by the Autobahn BFT study – maintaining throughput even during surges.
• Accelerated Sequential Execution compiles EVM bytecode to optimized native code to maximize single-core performance — avoiding typical pitfalls of parallel execution.
• IceDB (custom database) provides deterministic read/write behavior with documented read latencies on the order of tens of nanoseconds and built-in snapshotting — keeping block execution predictable under heavy load.
• Network-level optimizations such as advanced compression and BLS signature aggregation minimize validator bandwidth while sustaining extreme throughput.
• Built for builders: Low-code tools such as Somnia Builder (with Sequence) accelerate go-to-market for games and social apps. SDKs and modular components help teams launch without deep smart-contract expertise.

InfStones’ Role

As a validator for the Somnia blockchain, we are proud to have contributed to its record-breaking testnet and the successful launch of mainnet. Over six months of testing, Somnia processed more than 2 billion transactions with a single-day EVM record of over 80 million. Somnia selected InfStones as a critical infrastructure partner due to our stellar track record in enterprise-grade security, availability, and performance. The partnership allows Somnia developers and communities to benefit from mature, battle-tested validator operations.
