Goshen network
Goshen is a universal and fully Ethereum-equivalent Optimistic rollup L2 blockchain based on a RISC-V fraud-proof system that’s optimized for general-purpose EVM computation. It’s built on top of Ethereum, the most secure and battle-tested programmable blockchain, to maintain decentralization and security.

Goshen feels the same as interacting with Ethereum, but faster and with transaction costs at a fraction of what they are on L1. It’s compatible with your favorite Ethereum tools and you can deploy Ethereum contracts directly without having to worry about security and compatibility.

Build with us, we got you covered!

Low gas
Computation for transaction execution is offloaded from L1 and the gas fees are therefore orders of magnitude cheaper.

Inherently more secure
All L2 state transitions are reproducible and verifiable on L1. Malicious behavior can be challenged by any honest validator.

Fast transactions
L1 computation resources are limited, and transactions may be pending for a long time before getting processed. Transactions will be mined in seconds on Goshen network!

Developer friendly
Fully EVM-equivalent so all L1 toolchains works out of the box. Developers can migrate Dapps smoothly from L1 and deploy directly on Goshen in most cases.

What can I do on Goshen Alpha Testnet?
Once you bridge over to Goshen, you can do almost exactly the same as Ethereum, just much cheaper and faster! For example, you can transfer tokens between addresses and deploy smart contracts. We are currently working hard on new products to help you explore the network!

For builders
Goshen is an Ethereum-equivalent Optimistic rollup. Developing on Goshen will not require any additional knowledge besides your Ethereum dev skills and favorite tools!

To deploy your Dapp on Goshen, you can use any Ethereum contract development framework like Hardhat, Foundry, Truffle, Brownie
