Metis Hyperion: Igniting Hope for Ethereum's AI Narrative?
Author: YBB Capital Researcher Ac-Core
1. Overview of Metis Hyperion
Metis is an Ethereum L2 ecosystem based on Optimistic Rollup. It launched the Andromeda mainnet early on, distinguishing itself from other L2 networks with its decentralized sequencer, which gives transaction ordering rights to community participants. In March 2025, Metis officially announced a dual-chain strategy: launching the high-performance Hyperion chain on top of the existing general-purpose chain Andromeda. The former is positioned as a secure and reliable general-purpose L2, while the latter focuses on high-frequency, high-throughput, and AI-driven application scenarios. Hyperion is built on the Metis SDK, with its core being the new MetisVM virtual machine (compatible with EVM to support AI-optimized instructions), aiming to enhance scalability and decentralization while significantly improving transaction efficiency.
