Neon EVM unveils Solana-based framework for Ethereum dApp integration
Neon EVM has announced its groundbreaking Solana Native Framework, unveiling a set of features aimed at integrating Ethereum-based decentralized applications (dApps) with the Solana ecosystem.
The new architecture, detailed in a comprehensive whitepaper released on December 3, enables direct interaction between the Solana wallet and Ethereum applications while leveraging Solana’s high-performance infrastructure.
This release introduces key features such as Solana wallet compatibility for Ethereum transactions, on-chain mempools for scalable execution, and intent-based operations to allow conditional transactions such as automated token swaps.
This innovation allows users to sign Neon EVM transactions using Solana wallets, including Phantom, Backpack, and Solflare, eliminating the need for a separate Ethereum wallet. This update greatly simplifies wallet management while allowing users to maintain full control of their assets.
Neon EVM Chief Commercial Officer Davide Menegaldo emphasized the importance of the update, calling it a milestone for cross-chain functionality.
He said:
“This release unifies user experience and liquidity, providing a seamless connection between Solana and Ethereum dApps.”
He added that the upcoming software development kit (SDK) will allow developers to fully explore these capabilities and pave the way for broader adoption of Ethereum-based applications on Solana.
The white paper also highlights infrastructure improvements such as Associated Neon Accounts, which simplifies liquidity management by linking Solana public keys to EVM-compatible addresses, and Controlled Transaction Trees, which enable atomic and parallel execution for complex applications.
Additionally, on-chain mempools facilitate efficient scheduling and transaction execution, reducing costs and improving scalability. The integration is set to benefit both users and developers.
Solana users can access Ethereum’s powerful dApp ecosystem without leaving the Solana environment, and developers can leverage the speed and efficiency of the network to deploy Ethereum applications with minimal friction. For DeFi platforms, improved liquidity and reduced transaction costs can improve efficiency and adoption.
The advancement of Neon EVM is an important step in cross-chain collaboration connecting two of the most dynamic blockchain ecosystems. By solving interoperability and usability issues, the platform is poised to redefine how Ethereum-based applications interact with Solana’s infrastructure.
