Arcology introduces Ethereum’s first parallel execution rollup

Arcology
Network
is
revolutionizing
Ethereum
Layer
2
solutions
with
the
first-ever
EVM-equivalent,
multithreaded
rollup—offering
unparalleled
performance
and
efficiency
for
developers
building
the
next
generation
of
decentralized
applications.

With
a
cutting-edge
parallel
transaction
execution
engine
and
optimized
storage,
Arcology
enables
the
development
of
complex,
resource-intensive
applications
that
were
once
too
complex
or
costly
to
run
on-chain.
Arcology
is
a
blockchain
for
extreme
resource
intensive
applications.

The
Challenge:
Scaling
Ethereum
Rollups

As
Ethereum
shifts
toward
a
rollup-centric
ecosystem,
scalability
challenges
persist.
Current
Layer
2
(L2)
rollups
inherit
Ethereum
Layer
1’s
single-threaded
design,
which
severely
limits
performance.
As
on-
chain
activity
grows,
network
congestion
increases,
leading
to
significant
fee
spikes.
In
some
cases,
transaction
fees
surpass
the
value
of
the
transactions
themselves,
rendering
using
certain
applications
economically
unfeasible.

Ethereum
also
faces
increasing
competition
from
high-performance
Layer
1
blockchains
Solana,
which
offer
greater
throughput
and
lower
fees,
attracting
developers
and
users
looking
for
more
scalable
and
cost-effective
alternatives
to
Ethereum
L2s.

Arcology:
Parallel
L2
offering
High
Throughput,
Low
Fees

Arcology
addresses
Ethereum’s
scalability
challenges
by
introducing
parallel
execution
to
Layer
2,
setting
a
new
standard
for
throughput
and
cost
efficiency.
Compared
to
existing
L2
frameworks
such
as
Optimism
(OP)
and
Arbitrum,
which
still
inherit
Ethereum’s
single-threaded
design,
Arcology’s
multithreaded
rollup
delivers
unmatched
performance
while
avoiding
fee
spikes.

By
leveraging
parallel
transaction
execution
and
optimized
storage,
Arcology
offers
a
stable,
low-cost
environment
that
supports
complex,
resource-intensive
applications,
even
under
heavy
workloads.

Comparisons:
Arbitrum,
Optimism,
and
Solana

Other
L2s,
such
as
Optimism
and
Arbitrum,
inherit
Ethereum’s
single-threaded
design
with
a
target
gas
limit
of
5
to
10
million,
which
translates
to
only
a
few
hundred
TPS,
limiting
their
scalability.
In
contrast,
Arcology’s
multithreaded
system
supports
10,000
to
15,000
TPS
and
a
1.5
billion
block
gas
limit,
delivering
significantly
higher
throughput
without
fee
spikes,
even
under
heavy
load.

While
Solana
offers
better
performance,
it
requires
developers
to
move
away
from
the
Ethereum
ecosystem.
Arcology,
however,
maintains
EVM
equivalence,
allowing
developers
to
build
with
familiar
tools
while
benefiting
from
parallel
execution
and
superior
scalability.

Real-World
Impact

Arcology
opens
the
door
for
groundbreaking
applications
in
industries
such
as
gaming,
finance,
and
decentralized
social
networks,
where
fast,
low-cost
transactions
are
critical.
This
allows
developers
to
create
dApps
that
demand
high
computational
power
without
being
constrained
by
high
fees
or
slow
execution
times.

How
does
Arcology
work?

The
original
Ethereum
Virtual
Machine
(EVM)
processes
transactions
one
at
a
time.
Arcology
extends
this
architecture
to
enable
parallel
transaction
processing
while
maintaining
100%
EVM
equivalence.

Parallel
execution
significantly
enhances
performance
but
introduces
extra
technical
challenges
such
as
data
integrity
when
multiple
transactions
access
the
same
data
simultaneously.
Arcology
addresses
this
with
optimistic
concurrency
control,
protecting
data
while
maximizing
performance.

However,
optimistic
concurrency
control
is
sensitive
to
transaction
conflicts,
which
can
reduce
throughput.
To
mitigate
this,
Arcology
offers
a
Solidity
library
that
helps
eliminate
contention
in
contract
code,
allowing
developers
to
fully
leverage
the
benefits
of
parallel
processing.

Arcology’s
parallel
execution
system
isn’t
the
only
enhancement.
Ethereum’s
original
storage
design
limits
scalability,
but
Arcology
implements
a
parallel
database
that
handles
the
increased
workload
of
parallel
execution.

Ecosystem
&
Developers

Arcology’s
mainnet
is
expected
to
launch
by
Jun
2025.
The
network
invites
developers
to
explore
its
groundbreaking
capabilities
and
contribute
to
the
next
generation
of
decentralized
applications.
Early
participants
will
have
opportunities
to
be
rewarded
through
future
incentivization
programs,
designed
to
encourage
the
development
of
high-performance,
resource-intensive
applications
on
the
network.
