Shimmer Network

ShimmerEVM

Build to Maximize Growth

Introducing ShimmerEVM, the first advanced EVM-compatible smart contract chain on top of the highly interoperable Shimmer network.

ShimmerEVM is a high-velocity, plug-and-play smart contract chain on top of Shimmer, which acts as a universal bridge for dynamic and feeless value transfers between any kind of smart contract chains. Build and use any application and seamlessly communicate with Shimmer or any chain anchored to it.

HowItWorks

The ShimmerEVM chain is the first fully EVM-compatible smart contract chain on the Shimmer network that enables scalable, fast and secure of smart contracts.

Build to scale

Parallel Processing

No more throughput bottlenecks. Shimmer’s parallel transaction processing enables horizontal scalability, unhinges chain anchoring and processing capacities. Read more.

Fair and Secure

Native Randomness

Shimmer’s native randomness beacon is freely available at no additional costs, providing default fairness and security for any dApp on any chain anchored to it that requires verifiable randomness. Read more.

Say goodbye to bridges

EVM Compatibility +

Leverage the power of the IOTA Smart Contracts framework to deploy your Solidity Smart Contract with ease for seamless interaction with the Shimmer network and any smart contract chain anchored on the network - even non- EVM chains. Read more.

Present state consensus

MEV Free

Shimmer levels the DEFI playing field for end-users with its MEV protection: The IOTA Smart Contracts consensus natively randomises transaction ordering, making it impossible to determine the content of a block. Read more.

MagicSmartContracts

Magic Smart Contracts bring you the best of both worlds: full compatibility with any EVM application, as well as support for in-built Shimmer and IOTA Smart Contract functionality.

No need to build custom bridges – it's already part of the contracts

Available at default with any IOTA Smart Contracts Chain, Magic Smart Contracts allow anyone to manage native assets as if they were ERC20 or ERC721 standard contracts, while retaining seamless interoperability with Layer 1. Plus, it enables communication outside of EVM with Layer 1 and with non-EVM smart contracts. Read more.
