Metis AI unleashes a big move! Hyperion testnet is live, can LLM run directly on-chain?
Last night, another big news! Metis AI's high-performance chain Hyperion testnet is officially online! This thing claims to be a high-performance Layer 2 specially designed for AI, DePIN, DeFi, and GameFi, and it directly optimizes AI computation, sounds like some black technology!
What is Hyperion? Why is it so explosive?
In simple terms, Hyperion is a new Layer 2 in the Metis ecosystem, but it is not an ordinary Rollup; it is AI natively optimized! Here are a few key highlights:
1. Parallel execution + decentralized ordering = speed skyrocketing
Traditional L2 transactions are processed one by one, but Hyperion has implemented parallel execution, allowing transactions to run simultaneously, maximizing throughput! Plus, with a decentralized orderer (unlike some L2s that are still centrally controlled), performance is stronger and more resistant to censorship.
2. Native AI support, LLM directly on-chain!
The most explosive feature is that Hyperion is the first L2 to support on-chain execution of large language models (LLM)! Through the Alith Agent framework (developed by LazAI), AI tasks can be verified on-chain and computed off-chain, allowing DApps to directly invoke AI models, making smart contracts even more 'intelligent'!
3. Powered by Metis SDK, an upgraded version of Optimism Rollup
Based on MetisVM and MetisDB, combined with Optimism's technology, but more powerful than the traditional OP Stack, Gas is still paid with $METIS , maximizing ecological consistency.
