Somnia = A first-layer blockchain series (L1) → meaning it has its own dedicated network (like Ethereum or Solana) and is not built on top of another network.
✨ Its main features:
1. Compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) → which means that the applications and smart contracts built on Ethereum can easily run on it without the need for reprogramming.
2. Targeted towards consumer applications → focusing mainly on:
Games (GameFi / Web3 Gaming)
Entertainment products (Entertainment Apps)
🔑 The goal:
Somnia aims to be the infrastructure that enables developers to build decentralized gaming and entertainment platforms, allowing users to truly own their digital assets (like game characters, rare items, or entertainment tickets) on the blockchain.
So if we compare:
Ethereum = General and comprehensive for everything.
Somnia = More specialized in the entertainment and consumer side, while maintaining ease of development thanks to its compatibility with EVM.
