Gravity Alpha Mainnet—an Ethereum Rollup built on Arbitrum’s Nitro stack—is a public proving ground for the upcoming launch of Gravity Mainnet, a high-performance parallel EVM Layer 1 blockchain, built by Galxe. Quicknode is proud to support this launch, providing developers with reliable, production-grade endpoints and tools to build the next generation of omnichannel dApps.

What is Gravity?

Gravity Alpha Mainnet is the first phase of Galxe’s own blockchain strategy: a Layer 2 network (Rollup) that runs on Ethereum using Arbitrum’s Nitro technology. It’s designed as a “proving ground” for Galxe’s future Layer 1 chain, allowing Galxe to test scalability, cross-chain features, and new infrastructure in a real environment before the full mainnet launch in the upcoming months.

Galxe’s platform has over 34 million users and 7,000+ partners, including Coinbase, Polygon, and Optimism. To date, the chain has processed over 430 million transactions over 26 million total addresses. Such explosive growth revealed the challenges of fragmentation across multiple chains and the need for a unified solution. In short, Gravity Alpha Mainnet is Galxe’s answer to providing a seamless, scalable base for all those cross-chain activities in a transparent, on-chain manner.

Key features of Gravity Alpha include:

• EVM Compatibility: Gravity Alpha Mainnet supports full EVM compatibility, allowing seamless deployment of Solidity smart contracts. Developers can use existing Ethereum tools with zero migration effort.

• Scalability: Built on Arbitrum Nitro, Gravity Alpha Mainnet handles tens of millions of transactions monthly, 2–3× Ethereum’s throughput. Gravity batches and confirms transactions faster than Ethereum, ensuring quicker confirmations and a smoother UX. Galxe’s future updates target sub-second finality with optimized execution engines.

• Omnichain Interactions: Gravity enables transparent cross-chain settlements via LayerZero and Stargate in the Arbitrum Orbit ecosystem. Developers can trigger and settle multi-chain actions on one unified platform.

From Alpha to Galxe’s Layer 1: The Roadmap

Gravity Alpha Mainnet marks Phase 1 of Galxe’s strategy as an Arbitrum-based L2 to test scalability, performance, and cross-chain features in real-world conditions. The insights gathered will shape the next phase: Gravity L1 Mainnet, a fully independent Layer-1 blockchain set to launch in Q4 2025. Check out the Gravity Litepaper for more information.

The upcoming Gravity L1 will feature:

• Reth, a Rust-based EVM execution engine

• Restaking-powered Proof-of-Stake for enhanced security and capital efficiency via protocols like Babylon or EigenLayer.

• A custom Grevm 2.0 for parallel execution and Jolteon, a high-speed BFT consensus with 16.57 gigagas/s throughput, and sub-second finality.

Everything built on Gravity Alpha Mainnet—including on-chain identity, loyalty programs, and omnichannel dApps—will seamlessly transition to the high-performance L1. Galxe envisions Gravity L1 Mainnet as a scalable, user-owned blockchain for self-sovereign identity, cross-chain asset control, and web3 social experiences. Building on Alpha today is a direct onramp to the future of the Galxe ecosystem.
