UV-A DEVNET SVM-NATIVE L2 SETTLES TO SOLANA ULTRAVIOLETNETWORK.COM

Solana, at a higher frequency.

Ultraviolet is the execution layer that runs above Solana in milliseconds and settles back to it. Same programs. Same tooling. Same SOL.

ABSTRACT
Read as you scroll.

Solana got the base layer right. Some workloads need a different shape of blockspace: sub-slot latency, dedicated throughput, deterministic ordering. Ultraviolet is that shape. Not a fork. Not a rival. The next wavelength of the same chain.

03λ 315 NM — FREQUENCY

One slot.
Forty blocks.

Your trade confirms, your game state updates and your agent responds before the base layer finishes a single slot. Then all of it settles to Solana.

Built from Solana.

    Frequency

    Blocks are measured in milliseconds, not slots. Built for order books, perps, games, payments and agents that can't wait.

    tblk ≈ 10 ms

    Native

    It's the SVM. Deploy the programs you already have with the tooling you already use. Point your RPC and ship.

    VM = SVM

    Aligned

    It settles to Solana and runs on SOL. Value flows back to the base layer, not away from it.

    L1 = SOLANA

    Verifiable

    Don't trust the speed, check it. Open specs, open source and public telemetry from day one of testnet.

    TRUST = 0

Execute above.
Settle below.

Transactions are ordered and executed on Ultraviolet in milliseconds. State is committed, verified and settled to Solana, the layer everything stands on.

Point your RPC.
That's the migration.

Ultraviolet speaks Solana. Anchor programs, Solana Kit, web3.js and the wallets your users already have all work here, with the same accounts model and the same mental model.

  • Existing SVM programs, no rewrites
  • Standard Solana JSON-RPC
  • Bridged SOL for gas

1 · Features

  • SVM execution: existing Solana programs run unchanged
  • Sub-slot block production, targeting 10 ms
  • Settlement to Solana L1
  • Standard Solana JSON-RPC interface
  • Public telemetry from UV-B

2 · Description

UV-1 is a high-frequency execution layer for the Solana Virtual Machine. It orders and executes transactions in milliseconds, commits state, and settles to Solana L1. It's designed for workloads that need latency below one L1 slot: order books, perps, games, payments and agents.
