With MultiVM support for MoveVM and EVM dApps, Supra, the 500k TPS Layer-1 blockchain, presents Supra Containers, a revolutionary solution that may well do away with the requirement for Layer-2s (L2), Layer-3s (L3), and AppChains. Supra Containers herald a new era for dApps and on-chain development by providing builders with the flexibility of dedicated L2s and AppChains without the expensive infrastructure, fragmented liquidity, or difficult security concerns.
Navigating the L2 Maze: Liquidity, Composability, and Security
To get over the congestion and scalability problems they encountered on Layer-1s, builders have resorted to L2s and L3s. They quickly encountered their own set of issues, too, including the need to bootstrap network security, fragmented liquidity, and broken composability. By enabling developers to designate specific execution space for their dApps (DappSpace) and using the whole potential of Supra’s high-performance Layer-1, Supra Containers remove these obstacles.
Supra Containers: Access Seamless Composability and Shared Liquidity
With dedicated compute or execution space, customizable governance, and the ability to create your own token economies, Supra Containers provide the flexibility of L2s without any of the drawbacks. Builders no longer have to invest time and money in developing sophisticated bridging systems, validators, or network security from scratch. Every Container is secured by Supra’s L1 node network, allowing developers to concentrate only on creating cutting-edge dApps rather than infrastructure.
Because Supra Containers preserve atomic smart contract transactions and connect easily with other Containers and Supra’s ecosystem, dApps may communicate with one another without difficulty. Supra Containers may share liquidity over the whole Supra L1 network, guaranteeing seamless operations and access to a unified pool of assets, in contrast to L2s where fragmented liquidity becomes a major detriment.
Built-In Services and MultiVM Ecosystem Compatibility
Additionally, Supra Containers provide a built-in, vertically integrated stack of essential blockchain services that Supra L1 natively provides, including oracle price feeds, cross-chain connectivity, onchain verifiable randomness, and automation. Containers provide these functionalities natively, saving money on the expenditures otherwise incurred on integrating these external infrastructures. This is in contrast to L2 appchains, where oracle and bridge integrations may be expensive and difficult.
Because Supra is also MultiVM compatible, developers from ecosystems like MoveVM, EVM, and eventually SolanaVM will be able to deploy dApps on their own Supra Containers right now without having to worry about laborious migrations. With this flexibility, developers from different ecosystems may take use of Supra Layer-1’s 500k TPS throughput and sub-second consensus latency, launching a new wave of dApps and Containers that are scalable, effective, and interoperable.
Every Supra Container Can Be an Entire Ecosystem
Supra Containers have far more promise than just one or two dApps. By implementing many dApps and smart contracts within their Container, developers may even create whole ecosystems inside their custom environment. They have the ability to draw in new initiatives to implement in their infrastructure. A gaming studio, for instance, may introduce a Container as a decentralized gaming ecosystem with distinct token incentives, all the while taking use of Supra’s shared security and liquidity. They could even utilize the same utility token in numerous games inside their Container ecosystem, or even in other Containers, and gate their Container with their own onchain passes or NFTs.
Joshua Tobkin, CEO of Supra, explains:
“With Supra Containers, we’re not just simplifying dApp development — this might eliminate most needs for L2s and AppChains altogether. Developers now have the freedom to launch their own ecosystems with full control over governance and token economies, while enjoying the security, composability, and shared liquidity of Supra’s Layer-1 infrastructure.”
A paradigm change, supra containers provide developers a quicker, less expensive, and more effective approach to create robust dApps and their own custom economies. Supra is revolutionizing the development of blockchain apps by offering dedicated execution space, customizable governance, and tokens without the trade-offs associated with conventional AppChains.
