Recently, several old friends in the blockchain space have been asking me: "With so many on-chain privacy solutions available, which one can balance security, efficiency, and application scenarios?" Today, I must recommend a project that has truly impressed me——@Somnia_Network! As a player deeply involved in blockchain for 3 years, my experience participating in the Somnia testnet completely shattered my stereotype of "privacy chains = low performance."
Let's highlight the key points: Somnia is a Layer 1 public chain built on the Cosmos SDK, focusing on "high-performance privacy + seamless cross-chain." Simply put, it uses zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) technology to cloak every transaction in an “invisible cloak,” but it does not affect the transfer speed at all—I have tested it, and during peak times, the transfer confirmation time is less than 3 seconds! Even more impressive is its cross-chain capability: through the built-in IBC protocol, Somnia can directly connect to multiple public chains such as Ethereum, Cosmos, and TRON, meaning that in the future, when you stake assets in Somnia's DeFi protocols, you can earn yields from multiple chains while using privacy features to hide your holdings, avoiding being "killed by big data" from price discrimination.
What surprises me the most is the progress of Somnia's ecosystem. The testnet has been online for only 1 month, and there are already 3 DeFi protocols and 2 NFT markets onboard: for example, the AMM platform called "VeilSwap" not only supports cross-chain LP mining but also keeps the slippage under 0.1%; another NFT market, "MysticGallery," allows users to hide collectible information using ZKP, truly achieving the freedom of "showing only when you want to show." I’ve heard that after the mainnet goes live, the official will also launch a "privacy mining" mechanism—token holders can participate in node verification or ecosystem promotion to earn additional $SOMI rewards, and I won’t miss out on this opportunity!
Currently, Somnia's testnet incentives are still ongoing; participating in interactions (such as transfers and experiencing DApps) allows you to receive SOMI faucet rewards. As someone who despises "empty promises," I dare say that Somnia is one of the projects in the privacy track that has the "most solid technology implementation and clearest ecosystem planning" right now.

@Somnia_Network Looking forward to more sparks in the Somnia ecosystem after the mainnet launch! 🔥
