Last month at ETH Denver, Chaofan Shou presented one of InfiniSVM’s core USPs: elite UX. Today, we’re building on that presentation by addressing community questions and showcasing key features we’re bringing to market.

As this cycle has shown, onboarding the next wave of consumer applications requires more than just performance gains - user experience is essential to making blockchain accessible to non-crypto natives.

With InfiniSVM, we’re building a chain that combines real-time performance with the best UX of any blockchain in production. To achieve this, we’re working closely with the Solana ecosystem to develop a seamless, fluid experience that is, where necessary, completely abstracted.

The Problem with L1s and L2s Today

Ethereum Layer-2 solutions and various Layer-1 blockchains have contributed to scaling blockchain throughput, making on-chain activities more accessible. However, transitioning between chains remains cumbersome, involving complex bridging, wallet switching, and onboarding into new dApps, which hinder seamless scalability.

While crypto-natives may find these points of friction manageable, for new users they are often overwhelming. Without a major rethink in what good UX looks like, crypto is unlikely to meaningfully expand its core usebase.

Enter InfiniSVM

InfiniSVM operates as both an independent Layer 1 blockchain with its own native applications, as well as a deeply integrated Solana scaling solution. In practical terms, this means developers can choose to build natively on InfiniSVM or, if they already have a successful application on Solana, can choose to leverage InfiniSVM as a hardware-accelerated scaling solution. Under this scenario, transactions would be routed through InfiniSVM in a similar way to Ethereum L2’s, but with important distinctions.

For applications leveraging InfiniSVM as a scaling solution, their users need not even be aware they’re using Solayer. They don’t need to change wallets, gas fees can still be paid in SOL, and transactions and bridging can be handled in a single transaction.

InfiniSVM is therefore able to create a completely frictionless and intuitive user experience by leveraging features such as wallet independence, cross-chain contract calls, automated logic hooks, jumbo transactions, and ZK-Logins. Let’s dive into it!

A Single Chain Experience

InfiniSVM leverages a single Solana ID as well as a native, bi-directional bridge between Solana.

While InfiniSVM’s Solana scaling solution may have parallels with Ethereum L2s, there are key differences which result in a vastly different user experience.

Ethereum Layer 2’s for example require that each transaction has a unique Chain ID in its signature, which means users need to change networks and sign additional transactions whenever moving between L2s. This makes asset transfers reliant on third-party bridges, further adding complexity and potential security risks.

By contrast, InfiniSVM allows any Solana-supported wallet to interact with the chain directly without any additional setup. Applications can directly execute transactions without additional setup, leveraging our bi-directional native bridge while using SOL as a fee token. For end users the result is a single-chain experience with the benefits of InfiniSVM’s superior time to finality and scalability.

Develop Without Compromises

Native support for cross-chain contract calls, as described above, unlocks huge advantages for developers, allowing them to build directly on top of InfiniSVM’s real-time, hardware-accelerated network, while tapping into Solana’s thriving ecosystem and community.

An example of features developers can take advantage of through cross-chain contract calls include:

• Assets & Message Transfers: Instant and frictionless transactions between Solana and InfiniSVM.

• Program-Level Interactions: Seamless swaps and yield rebalancing between both chains

• Native Bi-Directional Bridge: Removes reliance on third-party bridges, reducing vulnerabilities and improving user experience. InfiniSVM’s bridge is also backed by Fuzzland’s industry-leading security team.

tl;dr With InfiniSVM, developers can build high-performance, real-time applications which are fully interoperable with Solana without end users even knowing.

Simplified Onboarding with Web2 Authentication

To further simplify onboarding, InfiniSVM integrates native support for ZK-Login, allowing users to authenticate using familiar Web2 credentials.

How ZK-Login Works

1. Instead of managing private keys and accounts, users log in via OAuth-supported accounts such as Google, X, and Reddit.

2. Transactions are cryptographically signed with Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) to ensure privacy and security.

3. Private keys are securely managed for users with a familiar recovery process if needed.

By leveraging familiar authentication methods, InfiniSVM is bridging the gap between Web2 and Web3, lowering barriers to adoption and streamlining onboarding.

Conclusion

InfiniSVM redefines blockchain usability by addressing some of the biggest pain points in user adoption and scalability.

Whether you're a developer looking to build the next-generation DeFi protocol or a user exploring blockchain for the first time, InfiniSVM provides the tools and infrastructure needed for a frictionless and efficient blockchain experience. InfiniSVM marks a major step towards making blockchain technology, and in particular Solana and SVM, more intuitive, scalable, and ready for mainstream adoption.
