Upcoming Integration: Metis Hyperion

In the near future, Lazpad will integrate to Metis Hyperion

What is Hyperion?

Hyperion - The First Layer 2 Bringing On-Chain LLMs to Life

Hyperion is a high-performance, AI-optimized Layer 2 solution designed to scale AI, DeFi, Depin and gaming applications. It enhances Metis' ecosystem by introducing parallel execution, AI-native infrastructure and decentralized sequencing, while maintaining Ethereum security and METIS as the gas token.

Hyperion, developed with the powerful MetisSDK and LazAI’s Alith AI framework, is the first Layer 2 Ethereum-compatible solution designed explicitly for on-chain AI execution, notably supporting Large Language Models (LLMs). It combines blockchain’s decentralized trust and transparency with AI's analytical and predictive powers, delivering an unparalleled user and developer experience.

This architecture optimizes the execution efficiency of AI processes within blockchain ecosystems, reducing computational overhead while maintaining network integrity. By embedding Alith’s modular framework for seamless AI/blockchain interoperability, Hyperion establishes a robust technical bridge between artificial intelligence and distributed ledger technologies.

This advancement fundamentally enhances decentralized application (dApp) capabilities, unlocking new possibilities for complex AI-driven functionalities in Web3 environments.

Key Features of Hyperion (HYPE):

Parallelized Transactions for Hyper-Scalability

Hyperion’s Parallel Execution Engine, paired with an Optimistic Rollup model, processes multiple transactions simultaneously, delivering sub-second finality. Optimized fraud-proof mechanisms ensure security without sacrificing speed, making Hyperion perfect for real-time AI, gaming, and DeFi applications.

High Performance On-chain LLMS Inference

By leveraging Rust's performance advantages and quick model inference technologies, Alith ensures that AI tasks in MetisSDK are executed efficiently, even under high transaction volumes.

Revolutionizing Storage

MetisDB eliminates storage bottlenecks with memory-mapped Merkle Trees, multi-version concurrency control, and asynchronous I/O processing. This ensures lightning-fast data access and cost-efficient state management, critical for data-intensive AI applications.

AI-Optimized Powerhouse

Hyperion’s Metis Virtual Machine (MetisVM) is custom-built for on-chain AI inference and high-throughput dApps. With dynamic opcode optimization, speculative parallel execution, and state-aware caching, MetisVM slashes gas fees and boosts processing speeds, enabling developers to run machine learning models directly on-chain.

Seamless Ethereum and Cross-Chain Integration

Hyperion commits state changes to Ethereum for battle-tested security while enabling cross-chain liquidity through a shared bridge framework. Integration with off-chain compute networks allows AI developers to leverage distributed processing power, creating scalable, interoperable dApps.
