Arcology Network revolutionizes Ethereum Layer 2 solutions with the first-ever EVM-equivalent multithreaded rollup, delivering unparalleled performance and efficiency to developers building the next generation of decentralized applications.
With a cutting-edge parallel transaction execution engine and optimized storage, Arcology enables the development of complex, resource-intensive applications that were once too complex or expensive to run on-chain. Arcology is a blockchain for extremely resource-intensive applications. Main features:
o EVM equivalence
o Parallel transaction processing
o 1.5 second block time
o 10,000 to 15,000 TPS
o Block gas limit of 1.5 billion
o No cost peaks, even under heavy loads o VME resistant design
The challenge: scaling Ethereum accumulations
As Ethereum evolves into an accumulation-centric ecosystem, scalability issues persist. Current Layer 2 (L2) rollups inherit the single-threaded design of Ethereum Layer 1, which significantly limits performance. As on-chain activity increases, network congestion increases, leading to significant fee hikes. In some cases, transaction fees exceed the value of the transactions themselves, making the use of certain applications economically infeasible.
Ethereum also faces increasing competition from high-performance layer 1 blockchains Solana, which offer higher throughput and lower fees, attracting developers and users looking for more scalable and cost-effective alternatives to Ethereum L2.
Arcology: Parallel L2 offering high throughput and low fees
Arcology addresses Ethereum’s scalability challenges by introducing parallel execution at Layer 2, setting a new standard for throughput and cost efficiency. Compared to existing L2 frameworks such as Optimism (OP) and Arbitrum, which still inherit Ethereum’s single-threaded design, Arcology’s multi-threaded stack delivers unparalleled performance while avoiding fee hikes.
By leveraging parallel transaction execution and optimized storage, Arcology provides a stable, low-cost environment that supports complex, resource-intensive applications even under heavy workloads.
Comparisons: Arbitrum, Optimism and Solana
Other L2s, such as Optimism and Arbitrum, inherit Ethereum’s single-threaded design with a target gas limit of 5-10 million, which translates to only a few hundred TPS, limiting their scalability. In contrast, Arcology’s multithreaded system supports 10,000 to 15,000 TPS and a gas block limit of 1.5 billion, providing significantly higher throughput without overhead spikes, even under heavy load.
Although Solana offers better performance, it requires developers to move away from the Ethereum ecosystem. Arcology, however, retains EVM equivalency, allowing developers to build with familiar tools while benefiting from parallel execution and superior scalability.
Real-world impact
Arcology opens the door to revolutionary applications in industries such as gaming, finance and decentralized social networks, where fast, low-cost transactions are essential. This allows developers to create dApps that require high computing power without being limited by high fees or slow execution times.
How does Arcology work?
The original Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) processes transactions one by one. Arcology extends this architecture to enable parallel transaction processing while maintaining 100% EVM equivalence.
Parallel execution significantly improves performance but introduces additional technical challenges such as data integrity when multiple transactions access the same data simultaneously. Arcology solves this problem with optimistic concurrency control, protecting data while maximizing performance.
However, optimistic concurrency control is sensitive to transaction conflicts, which can reduce throughput. To alleviate this problem, Arcology offers a Solidity library that helps eliminate conflicts in contract code, allowing developers to take full advantage of the benefits of parallel processing.
Arcology’s parallel execution system isn’t the only improvement. Ethereum’s original storage design limits scalability, but Arcology implements a parallel database that handles the increased workload of parallel execution.
Ecosystem and developers
Arcology mainnet is expected to launch by June 2025. The network invites developers to explore its revolutionary capabilities and contribute to the next generation of decentralized applications. Early participants will have the opportunity to be rewarded through future incentive programs, designed to encourage the development of high-performance, resource-intensive applications on the network.
