Somnia has introduced a Developer Network (Devnet) with a high transaction processing speed of 400k TPS for developers and users of Web3. Somnia is being marketed as an ideal platform for on-chain applications, particularly those geared towards mass consumers like games, decentralized finance (DeFi), social finance (SocialFi), and metaverse projects.

During internal testing, it was shown that Somnia's Devnet is capable of handling an impressive 400,000 transactions per second and finalizing transactions in less than a second. Additionally, transaction costs stay below one cent, even when the network is experiencing high loads.

Somnia's success is attributed to advancements in how tasks are carried out, the way data is stored, the way devices communicate with each other, and how agreements are reached. The platform's storage system is able to retrieve and update information within a very short time frame, leading to a noticeable decrease in delays. Additionally, the improved communication system enables nodes to exchange a much larger amount of data compared to traditional methods.

Furthermore, complete EVM compatibility enables developers to utilize tools and languages they are already familiar with to create decentralized applications that need to be responsive in real-time.

Additionally, Somnia enables immediate responses to events on the blockchain through Solidity, paving the way for fully decentralized applications such as interactive games and live event platforms. This feature aims to improve user engagement and expand the range of applications that can be successfully implemented on the blockchain.

Somnia is offering a $10 million grant to support developers in building a strong developer community. Developers are encouraged to apply for whitelisting to be part of the initial developer group. The grant program will provide funding, technical assistance, and strategies for bringing products to market.

Ankr is one of the initial infrastructure partners that will offer Remote Procedure Call (RPC) services to improve the network's connectivity and dependability.

Hemera's Social Scan feature will be used to support the block explorer, which helps users keep track of transactions on the blockchain. Furthermore, thirdweb will provide resources for creating decentralized applications that are compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine, making the development process easier.

Open to the public for testing, Somnia's Devnet will be available during specific hours for users to try out decentralized applications like a decentralized exchange (DEX), NFTs, and games.

By using this method, they aim to collect important feedback and assess how well the platform works in a real-world setting. Users have the option to receive Somnia Test Tokens (STT) from a faucet on the platform in order to take part in the testing process.

For those who are curious about Somnia's technology, developers and users can visit their website to learn more about Devnet access, the grant program, and the whitelisting process. Somnia's Devnet launch is intended to enhance the amount of data and features available on the blockchain, which could have an impact on the future development of decentralized applications.
