According to official news, SOON, a project with no financing announcements and no KOL advertisements, but with impressive strength, is creating a craze in the cryptocurrency circle. Let's take a look at the strength of this dark horse!
Project Introduction
SOON is a rollup stack designed to provide top performance for all layer 1 blockchains, powered by Decoupled SVM and a configurable DA layer. SOON is built on the OP stack, leveraging the advanced features of Decoupled SVM for unparalleled speed and scalability, and providing flexibility in data availability through options such as Celestia, EigenDA, and Avail. The architecture is tailored to meet the high-performance needs of modern decentralized applications, ensuring seamless execution, integration, and optimized data availability across the blockchain ecosystem.

Ecosystem: Solana
Founded: 2024
Financing
August 27: SOON completed financing, the specific amount was not disclosed, and 20 angel investors including the chairman of the Solana Foundation, the founder of Manta, and the founder of Celestia also participated in the investment. Other investors included Anatoly Yakovenko, Lily Liu, Kartik Talwar, Mable Jiang, Jonathan King, Mustafa Al-Bassam, Robinson Burkey, etc.
Project Highlights
SOON offers a few key advantages that make it an attractive layer-2 solution in the Solana ecosystem:
1. Improved scalability: By offloading transactions from the Solana mainchain, SOON can process more transactions, thereby enhancing the overall network capacity.
2. Reduced transaction fees: Processing transactions off-chain reduces costs, allowing users to enjoy lower fees than on-chain transactions on the Solana mainnet.
3. Improved user experience: Faster transaction speeds and lower fees provide a smoother experience for users and developers of decentralized applications (dApps).
4. Interoperability: SOON is designed to connect seamlessly with other layer-one blockchains and support cross-chain transactions, further expanding its application scenarios.
Future Vision
SOON is more than just a layer-2 scaling solution — it’s a game changer for the Solana ecosystem. By adopting optimistic rollups, the Solana Virtual Machine, and a data availability layer, SOON provides a scalable, efficient, and secure environment for building and running dApps.
