What are Layer 1 Protocols for Alchemy?

Layer 1 protocols, also known as layer 1 blockchains, are blockchain protocols that are built as the base layer of a blockchain. A layer 1 protocol serves as the underlying base blockchain of a blockchain network, as opposed to a layer 2 protocol which is designed to improve the scaling problems and transaction speeds and fees that layer 1 blockchain networks and protocols face. Decentralized applications and cryptocurrencies can be built on Layer 1 protocols, and layer 1 protocols interact with layer 2 protocols in order to improve efficiency and overall user experience. Compare and read user reviews of the best Layer 1 Protocols for Alchemy currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.

    Ethereum

    Ethereum

    Ethereum Foundation

    Ethereum is the community-run technology powering the cryptocurrency, ether (ETH) and thousands of decentralized applications. Ethereum is a technology that's home to digital money, global payments, and applications. The community has built a booming digital economy, bold new ways for creators to earn online, and so much more. It's open to everyone, wherever you are in the world – all you need is the internet. Today, billions of people can’t open bank accounts, others have their payments blocked. Ethereum's decentralized finance (DeFi) system never sleeps or discriminates. With just an internet connection, you can send, receive, borrow, earn interest, and even stream funds anywhere in the world. Today, we gain access to 'free' internet services by giving up control of our personal data. Ethereum services are open by default – you just need a wallet. Stake your ETH to become an Ethereum validator.

    Hyperliquid

    Hyperliquid

    Hyperliquid

    Crypto is fragmented today, but it doesn’t need to be. For the first time, build projects, create value, and exchange assets on the same hyper-performant chain. The foundation of the Hyperliquid L1 is HyperBFT consensus, which lets a disparate set of nodes agree on the state of the world. The state comprises all applications, both those built as native components and the HyperEVM. The Hyper Foundation, established to support the development of the Hyperliquid blockchain and its ecosystem, has announced the upcoming genesis distribution of its native token, HYPE. This initiative marks a significant step toward implementing proof-of-stake consensus and launching the HyperEVM on the layer-1 blockchain's mainnet. Hyperliquid's flagship application is a decentralized trading platform that provides deep on-chain liquidity for a wide range of assets. With the introduction of HyperEVM, applications built on Hyperliquid will have access to this extensive liquidity.
