Eclipse chain
Overview
Eclipse is a modular layer-2 network built on Ethereum that employs the Solana Virtual Machine for execution, merging parallel processing akin to Solana with Ethereum-based finality. It finalizes transactions on Ethereum via a verification bridge, utilizes ETH as its fee currency, publishes transaction data to Celestia for efficient data availability, and relies on RISC Zero for zero-knowledge fraud proofs. The project, developed by Eclipse Labs, targets security comparable to Ethereum while achieving throughput and cost levels associated with the SVM.
Within The Counterparty graph, Eclipse connects to 4 tracked entities, most strongly to Ethereum, Orca DEX, Celestia.

Questions on the record
What execution environment does Eclipse use?
Eclipse operates as an SVM layer-2 for Ethereum, employing the Solana Virtual Machine.
Where does Eclipse post its data?
Eclipse posts data to Celestia to achieve scalable data availability beyond Ethereum's current bandwidth.
What is Eclipse's gas token?
ETH serves as Eclipse's gas token, as the network settles on Ethereum through an embedded verification bridge.
