TechFlow news, May 7 — Metis AI high-performance chain Hyperion's testnet officially launched last night at midnight China time. Hyperion is a high-performance, AI-optimized Layer 2 solution designed specifically for AI, DePIN, DeFi, and GameFi. Through parallel execution, decentralized sequencing, and AI-native infrastructure, it scales the Metis ecosystem while maintaining Ethereum security and using METIS as the Gas token.
Developed on the Metis SDK, Hyperion redefines Layer 2 scalability by integrating MetisVM, MetisDB, Optimism Rollup technology, and parallel transaction execution. The Metis SDK incorporates the Alith Agent framework developed by LazAI, simplifying on-chain verification and off-chain computing tasks, making Hyperion the first Layer 2 protocol to support native on-chain execution of large language models (LLMs).
