Weāre thrilled to announce that Canopy Network Foundation has raised $8.5M in financing. Weād like to thank our backers, partners, and stakeholders for all of the support to this point.
Legacy frameworks and development tools for onchain apps were envisioned and built when humans were writing 100% of code. They were built for a world that no longer exists. As development costs approach zero, builders need infrastructure that can keep pace with their ideas.
Canopy was built from the ground up to support AI-development. 200 lines of code, AI scaffolding, deployment tools, monitoring - everything you need to start and scale.Ā
By reimagining the infrastructure layer, Canopy unlocks an entirely new set of builders in web3: anyone with an idea.
Mainnet is next.
Build with any AI coding assistant. Launch onchain with Canopy.

EcoCity is where the L1 renaissance stops being a thesis and becomes a product.
instead of debating whether appchains make sense, teams are quietly shipping them.
one example is Scenium, a sovereign L1 launching inside EcoCity.
What Scenium is building
Scenium is building an onchain platform for tokenized real-world assets, equities, funds, and other financial instruments designed for continuous use, not occasional interaction.
this is not a "deploy contracts and wait" application.
itās a system where:
- transactions are frequent
- settlement timing matters
- fees must stay predictable
- and execution needs to be auditable under load
infrastructure is not a background detail here. it is part of the product.
Why shared rollup blockspace doesnāt work
Shared rollups optimize for general-purpose composability.
Scenium needs operational certainty.
On shared blockspace:
- fees fluctuate based on unrelated demand
- block inclusion competes with other apps
- execution timing becomes probabilistic
for financial products tied to real world processes, those tradeoffs break UX and risk management.
the team cannot own its failure modes if blockspace is shared.
What dedicated blockspace enables instead
By launching as a sovereign L1 inside EcoCity, Scenium gains:
- guaranteed blockspace for financial flows
- predictable fee behavior under load
- control over execution ordering and upgrades
this allows the chain to be tuned around financial logic rather than generic gas markets.
The result is not just better performance, itās infrastructure aligned with the applicationās constraints.
Why sovereignty matters beyond speed
the real benefit of sovereignty is control.
when congestion, upgrades, or edge cases appear:
- the team knows where the bottleneck is
- fixes donāt depend on external sequencers
- governance decisions are scoped to the product
that level of accountability is not achievable on shared rollups without coordination overhead.
How this is possible without months of infra work
historically, launching a sovereign L1 meant:
- standing up validators
- building RPCs and tooling
- maintaining ops infrastructure
EcoCity changes that model.
Using orchestration layers like @TanssiNetwork, teams can:
- deploy production-ready sovereign L1s
- inherit core infrastructure primitives
- focus engineering effort on application logic
sovereignty becomes a configuration choice, not an engineering marathon.
The broader EcoCity signal
Scenium shows what EcoCity represents:
- sovereign L1s are no longer theoretical
- appchains are being discovered through usage, not marketing
- orchestration has collapsed L1 deployment timelines
this is infrastructure shipping, not narrative building.
Takeaway
Shared rollups are effective for many apps.
They fail when applications become systems with strict operational requirements.
EcoCity demonstrates that:
- sovereignty is practical today
- orchestration makes it accessible
- and some products simply cannot exist without dedicated blockspace
the L1 renaissance isnāt coming.
itās already live.

Projects building on Ethereum L1 often start from the same place: strong security guarantees, deep liquidity, and a well-understood execution environment. In 2024-2025, average Ethereum transaction fees stabilized around ~$0.5-1, with the network processing roughly 1.7-1.9 million transactions per day at ~15 TPS. At this stage, a shared L1 is a rational default.
As applications scale, however, teams increasingly encounter limitations that have little to do with product design and everything to do with shared infrastructure.
@AleaResearch frames this as a structural constraint of shared L1s, not a temporary inefficiency. Blockspace is a common resource. Applications do not control transaction ordering, block times, or fee dynamics, and they cannot isolate themselves from global demand. During periods of heightened activity - NFT launches, memecoin cycles, or DeFi volatility - latency and costs rise regardless of whether that demand is relevant to a given application. For products operating at scale, this unpredictability becomes a serious UX and cost challenge.
A useful analogy here is a large marketplace like Amazon. For small sellers, the platform handles distribution, payments, and infrastructure. But the rules are shared: fees change, algorithms shift, and sellers have limited control over how their storefront actually operates. Ethereum L1 functions similarly for applications. It is an excellent launchpad, but as throughput and user expectations grow, teams often realize they are optimizing within someone elseās system rather than designing their own.
Rollups and L2s emerged as the next point along this spectrum. Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and zk-rollups significantly increase throughput and reduce fees, often to a few cents per transaction. On top of this, Rollups-as-a-Service (RaaS) providers such as Conduit, Caldera, AltLayer, and Dymension focus on operational simplicity. As Alea highlights, their core value proposition is speed and convenience: teams can deploy a rollup in hours, with sequencers, RPCs, indexers, and monitoring largely handled out of the box. By 2025, many RaaS-supported networks were processing hundreds of thousands of transactions per day.
However, Alea draws a clear distinction: RaaS optimizes operations, not sovereignty. A rollup remains dependent on its host chain. Settlement and data availability ultimately occur on Ethereum, and final security is achieved only once data is posted to L1. Fee economics remain tied to calldata costs and provider pricing, while governance is constrained by the underlying stack (OP Stack, Nitro, or zk frameworks). In marketplace terms, this is still a storefront inside a larger platform, not full ownership of the underlying infrastructure.
Sovereign L1 frameworks, such as Saga and @TanssiNetwork , occupy a different position in Aleaās appchain spectrum. In this model, teams control the execution layer, block parameters, finality, and fee economics. An appchain is a standalone L1 rather than an application embedded within another chain. Historically, this approach came with significant trade-offs: bootstrapping validator sets, securing the network from scratch, and managing substantial operational overhead.
The key technical shift Alea emphasizes is restaking. Instead of building security from zero, sovereign L1s can anchor their economic security to Ethereum. In Tanssiās case, Alea describes an integration with Symbiotic, where validators leverage restaked ETH. This allows appchains to inherit Ethereum-grade economic security - measured in tens of billions of dollars in staked value - while maintaining sovereign execution. It represents a deliberate compromise between full independence and inherited security.
Operational complexity is another major trade-off. RaaS minimizes it almost entirely, while traditional L1s maximize it. Tanssi attempts to reduce this gap. Based on testnet data and public metrics referenced by Alea, the network has processed tens of millions of transactions and supports the parallel deployment of multiple appchain instances. Sequencer pools, RPCs, monitoring, and operator rotation are abstracted away, while teams retain control over network parameters. This places Tanssi firmly within the category of sovereign L1 frameworks rather than classical RaaS.
Cost models further differentiate these approaches. RaaS offerings often appear straightforward at first - for example, fixed monthly infrastructure fees in the $3ā5k range plus variable usage costs. At scale, however, calldata expenses and usage-based pricing can become difficult to predict. Sovereign L1 frameworks like Tanssi follow a more resource-oriented model: paying for block time or network capacity rather than per-transaction execution. For high-throughput applications, this materially changes cost predictability.
UX and finality complete the picture. Rollups can offer fast local confirmations, but ultimate finality remains tied to Ethereum settlement. A sovereign appchain can define deterministic finality and block times tailored to its specific use case - whether DeFi, gaming, or DePIN. As Alea notes, these are not universally better or worse options, but intentional architectural trade-offs.
From direct interaction with Tanssi as an infrastructure user - including staking and cross-chain functionality - the distinction becomes observable in practice. The network behaves as an independent L1 with its own execution and finality logic, rather than as an extension of an existing rollup stack. This aligns closely with Aleaās framing of sovereignty as execution isolation rather than ideological separation.
Alea Researchās central conclusion is pragmatic: shared L1s, rollups, and sovereign appchains are not competing narratives, but points along a single architectural spectrum. Tanssi represents one approach to combining sovereign execution, Ethereum-aligned security, and reduced operational burden.
For builders, the practical takeaway is straightforward: the question is no longer āL1 or L2,ā but how much execution control, cost predictability, and operational ownership your product actually requires. As onchain applications mature from experiments into production-grade systems, architectural decisions increasingly reflect these trade-offs rather than ease of launch alone. Aleaās appchain spectrum offers a clear framework for navigating that choice within the Ethereum ecosystem.

Examining Gotasā SocialFi Success: How @TanssiNetwork Enables Mass Engagement at Scale.
Imagine scanning a QR code at a football match and seeing your reward appear instantly in your wallet.
No delays. No retries. No ātry again later.ā
Now imagine that happening millions of times across stadiums, concerts, retail stores, and online campaigns.
Thatās the infrastructure problem @gotasofficial is solving ā because when engagement scales, systems break unless the blockchain is built for it.
What Gotas Is Actually Doing (With Real Numbers)
Gotas is a SocialFi platform built for mass participation, not crypto-native users.
So far, it has achieved:
170,000+ unique wallets onboarded
2.7 million on-chain redemptions
Activations across sports, entertainment, and retail
Heavy traction in Brazil & LATAM, a mobile-first, event-driven market
These arenāt speculative metrics.
They reflect real consumer behavior at scale.
And this matters because SocialFi systems rarely fail in pilots ā
they fail when campaigns cross the ~100,000-user threshold and engagement becomes burst-driven.
Why Mass Engagement Breaks Most Blockchains
A typical Gotas interaction is simple: scan ā redeem ā confirm.
Now compress tens of thousands of these actions into minutes during a live match.
On most blockchains:
fees spike under load
confirmations slow
failed transactions increase
campaign costs become unpredictable mid-run
What should feel instant turns into delays, retries, and user drop-off.
On a Tanssi-powered sovereign L1, the same surge behaves differently:
fees are protocol-defined
confirmations remain deterministic
success rates donāt degrade under load
campaign costs are known before launch
For SocialFi, this difference is existential.
A delayed redemption isnāt āworse UXā ā it breaks the incentive loop.
Core Insight
Mass engagement doesnāt fail because of bad UX.
It fails when infrastructure becomes unpredictable under load.
Platforms like Gotas operate at a scale where:
every delay breaks momentum
every fee spike breaks economics
every failure breaks trust
At that point, reliability matters more than raw throughput.
By running on a Tanssi-powered sovereign L1, Gotas showed that:
millions of real interactions can run without degradation
engagement doesnāt collapse during traffic spikes
campaign economics stay stable as demand explodes
Final Takeaway
Gotasā success isnāt just about creative campaigns.
Itās about choosing infrastructure that doesnāt punish success.
When the chain is built for predictability ā not just execution:
user momentum is preserved
operators scale without fear
growth compounds instead of breaking the system
This is what SocialFi looks like when the blockchain is built for users, not just transactions.

SocialFi is often called just hype, but the numbers from Gotas tell a different story:
ā¢ 170k+ Active Wallets
ā¢ 2.7M+ Redemptions
ā¢ 35k+ NFT Collections
The secret? They are running on @TanssiNetwork.
Tanssi makes a gasless experience possible. Users can claim rewards without worrying about gas fees, making it feel just like a standard Web2 app.
This is proof that SocialFi can scale to millions when the infrastructure is built right.
Tanssi retweeted
Shared blockspace solved yesterdayās scaling problem.
It will not solve the next one.
As real-world apps demand predictable execution, control, and reliability, modular L1s are becoming the default.

Case Study: @gotasofficial & The SocialFi Mass Engagement Model Powered by @TanssiNetwork
SocialFi at Scale: Gotas as a Real Consumer Use-Case
@gotasofficial stands out as one of the clearest proofs that SocialFi can scale beyond crypto-native users.
Built using Tanssiās infrastructure, Gotas onboarded 170k+ wallets and processed 2.7M+ voucher redemptions ā not as speculation, but through real participation: tasks, quests, loyalty actions, and brand experiences.
Where typical SocialFi apps struggle with UX friction, Gotas thrives because Tanssi enables fast confirmations, low-cost interactions, high-throughput reward logic, and a seamless wallet experience.
This lowered onboarding friction and made user actions feel like normal app usage.
Gotas didnāt just go viral, it operationalized engagement using blockchain rails built for consumers.
How Did They Do It? Growth Mechanics & Economic Loops
@gotasofficial used an incentive engine built around earn ā redeem ā repeat loops.
Users perform tasks ā earn credits/Gotas ā redeem vouchers ā experience value ā return for more.
This cycle only works when execution costs are negligible, which is where Tanssiās sovereign-ready infra matters.
š Growth levers that worked:
š¹ Redemption economics instead of speculation hype
š¹ Instant micro-transactions supported by Tanssi throughput
š¹ Real-world utility (discounts, vouchers, brand touchpoints)
š¹ Engagement mechanics scalable to thousands of actions simultaneously
By keeping costs internal and throughput high, Tanssi allowed Gotas to reward activity without burning capital, turning users into participants instead of extractors.
The Larger Impact: Why This Matters for Web3 Adoption
Gotas proves that mass adoption doesnāt start with trading ā it starts with utility.
Tanssiās architecture enables apps to scale SocialFi economy flows like Web2 loyalty systems, but on rails that are transparent, programmable, and user owned.
If Gotas achieved millions of redemptions early, imagine:
ā
Shopping loyalty economies
ā
Creator reward systems
ā
Campus or city-scale micro-incentives
ā
Consumer gaming reward loops
The success of Gotas suggests SocialFi will evolve from novelty to consumer infrastructure, and Tanssi stands in position to power the next wave.
Tanssi doesnāt just support dApps ā it enables on-chain economies with real users and real engagement
