Omni Network is a layer 1 blockchain platform designed to unify Ethereum’s rollups by establishing a high-throughput, low-latency global messaging network. This network aims to address the fragmentation within the Ethereum ecosystem by providing a unified layer for rollups, enhancing interoperability, security, and performance across different blockchain protocols.
The Omni Network architecture comprises several key components:
- Internal Chains: Consists of a consensus layer and an execution layer, mirroring Ethereum's post-merge structure, where the execution layer uses standard Ethereum clients (e.g., Geth, Erigon) to run the Omni EVM.
- EigenLayer Restaking Contracts: Connect Omni with its restaking participants and are registered with EigenLayer as an Actively Validated Service (AVS).
- Portal Contracts: Serve as the main interface for creating cross-network messages, deployed across all supported rollup VMs and the Omni EVM.
- Relayer: Delivers attested cross-network messages from Omni to destination rollup VMs after receiving confirmation from the Omni validators.
