TL;DR

• Rollups have unlocked Ethereum’s scalability, but keeping long-term growth is still tough.

• Alpha Engine is the first unified growth platform to support L2s beyond launch, keeping them profitable, secure, and connected for long-term success.

The Growth Challenge

Today, launching a rollup has never been easier and more accessible, thanks to rollup frameworks and Rollup-as-a-Service (RaaS) providers.

But growing and scaling beyond launch? That’s where the real challenge begins.

Three major roadblocks stand in the way of rollups:

• Limited revenue. Transaction fees alone are unpredictable and unsustainable for long-term growth.

• High security costs. Achieving robust security demands massive capital and resources.

• Isolated networks. Lack of interoperability leads to fragmented ecosystems and restricts liquidity flow.

Without a clear growth path, rollups struggle to scale efficiently.

That’s where Alpha Engine comes in.

Introducing Alpha Engine

Alpha Engine is the unified growth platform that combines Radius, Avail, and Symbiotic designed to address economic challenges that rollups face. Unlike simple deployment frameworks, Alpha Engine is a complete economic toolkit that helps rollups stay profitable, secure, and connected.

How Alpha Engine helps rollups grow:

• Revenue Growth: New revenue streams beyond just transaction fees

• Shared Security: Lower costs and capital-efficient security infrastructure without sacrificing control

• Network Unification: Seamless interoperability and liquidity across the rollup ecosystem

By integrating these solutions, Alpha Engine creates a sustainable economic flywheel for rollups.

Inside Alpha Engine: Core Components

Radius: Revenue Growth

Radius transforms MEV into a sustainable revenue stream through its Lighthouse solution, ensuring rollups capture and generate economic value beyond basic transaction fees.

Symbiotic: Shared Security

Symbiotic introduces a shared security protocol, allowing rollups to retain full control over their security implementations from collateral assets to operator selection to slashing mechanisms, creating a robust economic foundation.

Avail: Network Unification

Avail’s Nexus and DA layer unify rollups, enabling seamless cross-rollup transactions and deeper liquidity integration.

Together, these core components of Alpha Engine ensure rollups stay profitable, maintain robust security, and connect with ecosystems effortlessly.

Symbiotic Networks

Symbiotic supports diverse networks serving as essential building blocks for shared security. The Alpha Engine ecosystem is secured by Symbiotic’s infrastructure providers, which enhance rollup growth:

• RedStone: RedStone is the fastest-growing oracle in 2024, specialising in yield-bearing collateral for lending markets. Its Total Value Secured (TVS) grew from below $1bn in January to $6bn+ now.

• Hyve DA: Hyve is the first Data Availability (DA) solution designed to power any data-intensive Layer 2s, rollups, appchains, and even Layer 1s. Fully chain- and token-agnostic, HyveDA seamlessly supports any blockchain, regardless of its settlement layer, virtual machine, or native token.

• Capx Cloud : Capx Cloud is a Symbiotic network that enables decentralized AI agent deployment, crypto-economically secured through Symbiotic protocol

• Kalypso: Kalypso by Marlin is a circuit-agnostic ZK Proof Marketplace supporting private inputs, using Symbiotic restaking to provide liveness and response times guarantees for proof generation.

• Drosera: Drosera is an automated risk management protocol for addressing any risk within the EVM (not just smart contract exploits).

• Cycle Network : Cycle Network offers bridgeless liquidity abstraction through verifiable state aggregation, supporting all Bitcoin and EVM blockchain ecosystems and secured by Symbiotic.

• Ditto: Ditto is building a trustless execution protocol to run event driven workflows on-chain with economic guarantees from restaking protocols.

L2s Powered by Alpha Engine

These L2 rollups will be leveraging Alpha Engine’s revenue, shared security, and unification solutions to drive growth and scale efficiently:

• Swell: The restaking chain, powered by Proof of Restake. Built on OP and part of the Superchain family.

• CapX: Capx is an Ethereum Layer 2 network that empowers users to build, monetize, and trade AI agents. By offering an all in one platform for capital formation and distribution, Capx enables users to build AI agents, driving the future of user-owned and governed AI ecosystems.

• Silicon: Silicon is a zk-Rollup-based Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain network, purpose-built to seamlessly integrate with and expand the Web3 ecosystem.

• Fuse: Fuse is a decentralized blockchain platform designed to empower businesses and developers with scalable, efficient, and cost-effective solutions

• Cycle Network : A universal, secure and verifiable chain abstraction that offers a bridgeless aggregate liquidity network for all blockchains.

• Ternoa: zkEVM L2 with native privacy features

• Vessel: Vessel is a Zero-Knowledge(ZK) powered decentralized exchange that is gradually evolving into a comprehensive Layer 3 network for DeFi.

• Lift: LIFT deploys AI Agents to transform content on screens into streaming knowledge. LIFT watches sports, streaming, news, social commerce and gaming to create data feeds of what is happening “now”, making content searchable, interoperable and actionable in real-time.

• Arcana : Arcana’s Chain Abstraction protocol unifies users assets across multiple chains into a single balance that can be spent on their desired chain, without bridging, near instantly.

Fueling Alpha Engine: Key Fuel Partners

Beyond its core components, Alpha Engine is strengthened by fuel partners: ecosystem contributors that amplify its impact on security, liquidity, and infrastructure.

Today, four fuel partners power Alpha Engine:

• Nucleus: The Default Yield Provider for Networks

• Swell: Diversified security provider for rollups and networks

• Ternoa IVS: Trust-minimization infrastructure via TEE

• Fuse: SDK and APIs for consumer applications

By bringing together core components, Symbiotic Networks, and fuel partners, Alpha Engine creates an unstoppable growth flywheel for rollups, scaling alongside them.
