Paradigm’s open source offerings are designed for blockchain infrastructure developers, DeFi teams, and DAO tooling builders who need robust, modular, and performant tools. Notable projects include Reth, a Rust-based Ethereum client; Foundry, a modular Ethereum development toolkit; Solar, a fast Solidity compiler; and Artemis, a framework for MEV bot development. Paradigm also supports ecosystem projects like wagmi and Viem, which provide frontend Ethereum interfaces.

What sets Paradigm apart is its combination of deep research expertise, investment backing, and active engineering contributions. This dual role allows Paradigm to influence the ecosystem both financially and technically, fostering innovation with production-ready, well-documented tools. Developers can get started by exploring Paradigm’s GitHub repositories, leveraging their Rust-based SDKs and toolkits, or deploying ML pipelines with Paradigm’s lightweight ML deployment framework.
