The Virtual Society Foundation (VSF) has introduced the Somnia project, a groundbreaking L1 blockchain and omnichain protocols designed to unify the metaverse into a virtual society capable of supporting millions of users with immersive experiences. Traditional blockchains lack the speed and cost-effectiveness needed for a virtual society, resulting in a fragmented metaverse where creators are not adequately rewarded.

Developed by the Virtual Society Foundation, the Somnia Blockchain is optimized for the metaverse, offering impressive transaction speeds and efficiency for creators to build immersive worlds. The protocols enable seamless movement of assets, commerce, and avatars across different experiences, enhancing the value for creators. Somnia aims to capture a significant portion of the blockchain gaming, metaverse, and NFT sectors, which are rapidly growing industries.

Somnia Founder Paul Thomas believes that the launch of Somnia is not only transformative for the metaverse but also for blockchain technology as a whole. The protocols will enable a connected and collaborative metaverse, fostering a new creator economy where value is shared among all participants. This marks the beginning of a genuine virtual society encouraging community collaboration and creativity.

With the upcoming Betanet protocol integrated into MSquared’s Origin engine, users will be able to create interoperable avatars and explore massive events in the metaverse. Collaborations with Avaturn will enhance user experiences, allowing them to participate in immersive events and explore new content. Improbable and Msquared have already organized large metaverse events, demonstrating the potential of the Somnia project.

Somnia's unique approach to blockchain technology and metaverse integration has the potential to revolutionize the virtual world, enabling a truly unified and connected experience for users and creators alike. By encouraging collaboration and value-sharing, Somnia is paving the way for a new era of creativity and community engagement in the metaverse.
