Hey, brothers! A tough character has arrived in the crypto world - Eclipse! 'The "super hybrid" of Solana and Ethereum, the next dark horse of Layer 2.' As a veteran who has been in the crypto world for 8 years, I'm here to dig into what this project is all about and whether it's worth us to enter a position! #KAITO # COOKIE #CryptoNews @KaitoAI @EclipseFND

1. What is Eclipse for?
In simple terms, it's "Solana on Ethereum"!
In simple terms, Eclipse is a Layer 2 blockchain project aimed at combining the high performance of Solana with the security and liquidity of Ethereum, creating a "super platform" that is both fast and stable. Think about it, Solana has lightning-fast transaction speeds, but its liquidity is somewhat lacking; Ethereum has money and an ecosystem, but gas fees are crying expensive. Eclipse is like a "hybrid", merging the advantages of both, creating a Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) Layer 2 that runs on Ethereum, with fast speeds, low costs, and seamless access to Ethereum's ecosystem resources.

They also used something called Celestia for Data Availability, which simply means making data storage cheaper and verification easier, solving common latency and security issues in Layer 2. With this combination, Eclipse claims to be "the best place to develop DApps," where DeFi, games, and consumer applications can all thrive!

2. Project Progress and Ecological Highlights
From @EclipseFND's Twitter, this project is not just talk; they have already accomplished quite a bit in reality:
Eclipse Foundation: In January this year, they established the Eclipse Foundation, which is specifically responsible for the decentralized governance and ecological growth of the protocol. Technical development is entrusted to the @Labs_Eclipse team, which operates in an orderly manner with clear divisions of labor.

Turbo Tap Game: This is not just a simple blockchain game! Turbo Tap is a clicker game where players can earn "Grass" points by clicking and feeding the virtual cow "Turbo", which may be tied to airdrops in the future. This game is not only fun but also showcases Eclipse's high throughput and user-friendliness, attracting a bunch of players to join.

The DeFi ecosystem is taking off: A bunch of DeFi projects were mentioned on Twitter, such as Deserialize (the first DEX aggregator, with a trading volume exceeding 10 million USD), Astrol Finance (supporting TIA lending), and Invariant (with over 100,000 users participating in the points program). There’s also UmbraFi providing AMM infrastructure, and Nova creating high-yield stable pools (6% APR for the USDN pool and 440% APR for NPT staking). This ecosystem is already booming!

Games and NFTs: In addition to DeFi, Eclipse has also launched NeuroGuardians (a card strategy game, Season 1 is live) and Werm (growing from 0 to over 700 daily active users, extremely popular). There is also the Neighborhood art collective, supported by the Eclipse Creator Fund, which supports creators.

Airdrop signal: A tweet at the end of June mentioned that Eclipse will soon launch its tokenomics and airdrop checker, and the TGE (Token Generation Event) is also coming soon! This is a significant positive for the veterans in the crypto world. Players participating in Turbo Tap, DeFi projects, and bridging assets all have the chance to share in the rewards.

3. Why is it worth paying attention to? Three core advantages.
Technical Hardcore: Eclipse runs Layer 2 with SVM, and the transaction speed is as fast as Solana, but the security and liquidity are backed by Ethereum. Coupled with Celestia's modular data availability, the solution to the blockchain "impossible triangle" (security, decentralization, scalability) is very clear.

Ecosystem Explosive Power: From Twitter, it can be seen that Eclipse's DeFi, gaming, and NFT ecosystem has already taken shape. The trading volume of Deserialize, the player growth of Werm, and the high-yield pools of Astrol all indicate that this platform can attract users and funds. Moreover, they also have Hyperlane supporting cross-chain bridging, which may connect with more chains in the future.

Community and Airdrop: Eclipse's Discord community is very active, and they often interact with users on Twitter. The simple and easy-to-play game Turbo Tap lowers the participation threshold, attracting a large number of retail investors. Not to mention the upcoming airdrop, who doesn't love free candy?

4. Risk Point: New projects should be approached with caution.
Of course, nothing in the crypto world is 100% stable. Although Eclipse is gaining momentum, there are a few points to pay attention to:
Layer 2 competition is fierce: big players like Arbitrum, Optimism, and zkSync have already captured a significant market share. As a newcomer, Eclipse needs to provide more differentiated advantages.

Token economics unclear: Although Twitter says TGE is coming soon, the specific token distribution and lock-up mechanisms have not been announced. If the airdrop is too small or the distribution is unfair, it may affect community enthusiasm.

Technical risks: The combination of SVM + Celestia + Ethereum sounds great, but whether there will be bugs or compatibility issues during actual operation depends on the performance of the mainnet.

5. How to participate? The experienced driver teaches you how to enter a position.
Here are a few simple steps, refer to Twitter and official website information:
Join Turbo Tap: Go to

Bridge Assets: Bridge ETH to Eclipse using EVM wallets like MetaMask to participate in ecological projects (such as Orca, Astrol).

Play DeFi and games: try Deserialize for swapping coins, Astrol for lending, or play NeuroGuardians and Werm to increase points and activity.

Follow Twitter and Discord: Keep an eye on the updates from @EclipseFND and @Labs_Eclipse, news about the airdrop checker and TGE may explode at any moment!

6. Conclusion from the experienced driver
Eclipse project, simply put, is "Solana's speed + Ethereum's ecosystem," plus Celestia's modular design, which is technically very impressive. The ecological progress shared on Twitter (DeFi, games, NFTs) has already proven that they are not just making empty promises, and the community engagement is outstanding. The expectations for airdrops and TGE have further ignited market enthusiasm; who in the crypto world doesn't want to share some candy?

But as an 8-year veteran KOL, I have to remind you: although the project is good, risks still exist. The competition in the Layer 2 track is fierce, and Eclipse needs to rely on technology and ecology to continue to make breakthroughs. I suggest everyone start with a small position, play with Turbo Tap and bridge ETH to test the waters, and keep an eye on Twitter and Discord for TGE details before deciding whether to add to their position.

Overall, Eclipse is a potential stock worth paying attention to, and it could be the dark horse of Layer 2 in 2025! Brothers, get your wallets ready and be prepared to enter a position at any time!
