Neon EVM is a smart contract on Solana, a rapidly growing blockchain that utilizes a proof-of-history consensus mechanism. This algorithm uses timestamps to determine the next block in Solana's chain, ensuring the security of the system. While Solana occasionally experiences downtimes that affect Neon EVM, the Solana team is actively working to address these issues within the next 6 months. Despite these challenges, Solana's reputation as an innovative Layer 1 blockchain has made it highly popular among various decentralized applications (dApps). Neon EVM has undergone extensive performance testing and now offers the necessary infrastructure and capabilities to support production-level development. Several notable Ethereum-based projects, such as Curve and Sobal, have already started building on Neon, and over 200 projects are committed to launching on its mainnet or shortly after. These projects include blue-chip DeFi protocols, wallets, fiat on/off ramps, infrastructure, DAO tooling, and more. Looking ahead, Neon EVM plans to achieve interoperability with Solana smart contracts, ensure full ecosystem compatibility, integrate with major Ethereum tools and services, and establish an early grants program.
