Somnia

Decentralized metaverse with interoperable on-chain content

Overview

Somnia builds a decentralized metaverse stack that includes a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain, an interoperable content protocol, and a consumer metaverse browser. Its technology enables on-chain, composable people, places, and things so digital experiences and assets can freely interoperate across the metaverse. Transactions and interactions within the ecosystem run on the blockchain, with content and assets designed to work together across apps and environments via interoperable standards. The project emphasizes decentralization and community-driven development to avoid single‑entity control and to ensure value flows to participants, creators, and users. The goal is to empower creators and participants in the metaverse by providing open, interoperable infrastructure and a user-facing browser to explore and monetize digital content and experiences.
