Sovrun

What is Sovrun?

Sovrun is a Layer 2 solution that pushes the boundaries of blockchain gaming and decentralized virtual worlds. Designed as a HyperEVM-compatible rollup, Sovrun delivers subsecond block times and parallel execution capabilities, making it an ideal platform for next-generation Web3 applications. Transactions are finalized on the HyperEVM (Hyperliquid’s EVM), ensuring speed and efficiency.

Whether you’re a gamer, developer, or innovator, Sovrun provides the tools to build, play, and shape the future of autonomous, on-chain worlds.

Sessionchains

Sovrun introduces Sessionchains, temporary rollups with specific precompiles that cater to unique applications and experiments. These chains are perfect for testing, time-bound gaming events, and other innovative use cases. For more details, visit the Sessionchains page.

Sovrun L2 Testnet Phase 1

The first phase of the Sovrun testnet is live on the HyperEVM testnet, marking a major step toward realizing the vision of high-speed, on-chain gaming.

Developers can start building on the testnet today, though parallel execution is still in development.

Step-by-Step Guide:

Running a Sovrun Node

Developers and community members can operate their own Sovrun nodes to support the network and experiment with the ecosystem.

Node Highlights:

  • HyperEVM-Based: Sovrun runs on a modified, parallel-optimized version of HyperEVM, derived from the OP Stack.
  • Setup Instructions: Refer to the “Running an OP Sepolia node from source” guide with Sovrun-specific adjustments.
  • Ongoing Upgrades: Expect improvements and finalization updates in the coming weeks.

Running a node enables developers to directly engage with the Sovrun ecosystem and test its capabilities firsthand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Sovrun different from other Layer 2 solutions?

Sovrun combines subsecond block times, parallel execution, and the flexibility of Sessionchains to deliver performance and scalability for Web3 gaming and autonomous virtual worlds.

What are Sessionchains used for?

Sessionchains are time-limited rollups designed for specialized applications, such as short-term gaming events or experimental features. They provide a flexible and secure environment for innovative use cases.

How can I start building on Sovrun?

The Phase 1 testnet is now live on HyperEVM. Developers can explore the ecosystem by running nodes or deploying smart contracts on the testnet.

When will parallel execution be available?

While the current testnet uses a non-parallel EVM version, parallel execution is under active development and will be rolled out in upcoming updates.

Conclusion

By merging speed and scalability, Sovrun empowers developers and players to create immersive, self-governing ecosystems. Whether you’re a gamer, creator, or Web3 enthusiast, Sovrun offers the tools to bring these changes.
