A modular AltVM framework for layer 2s. Deploy with any VM on your favorite blockchain. Live on Optimism. Arbitrum and other major L2s coming soon. Support planned for Move, SVM, and WASM
Lumio is the first modular VM framework to bring alternative VMs like Move VM and Solana VM to existing major Ethereum and Bitcoin L2s. It is EVM-compatible, built using the OP Stack, and settles on Ethereum.
Lumio makes it easy to deploy dApps across Ethereum and other L1s like Aptos and Solana with minimal modifications. Lumio unlocks native ETH, BTC, SOL, APT and other assets for apps built with popular VM frameworks.
SuperLumio is the first mainnet iteration of Lumio, built using the OP Stack and using EVM as its execution layer. SuperLumio is gearing up to become part of Superchain, an emerging network of interconnected L2s spearheaded by Optimism. Importantly, it will support proto-danksharding, the new Ethereum scaling solution that should reduce rollup fees by up to 100x.
Lumio is designed to be both execution and settlement layer agnostic, so it can support many virtual machines and L1/L2 networks: Ethereum, Bitcoin, Aptos, Optimism, Avalanche, zkSync, etc.
Deploy with popular VMs on major L2s & L1s across Ethereum, Bitcoin and more.
The best of both worlds: Ethereum liquidity and decentralization enhanced with the speed and security of Move VM, Solana VM and parallelized EVM. Deploy on any network easily using SDKs
Lumio is live in Pontem Wallet, MetaMask (EVM only), and Petra (Move VM only). Try the L2 with Pontem Wallet and Liquidswap, bridge ETH, or check out the docs and deploy your code!
Deploy your project on the EVM part of Lumio with Hardhat and MetaMask – or on Move VM with our easy-to-use IDE plugin.

Lumio is one of the few L2s to include a Cross VM contract in its genesis block: developers can use smart contracts to enable VM calls between EVM and Move VM. The default gas coin for both VMs is ETH. This opens up possibilities for building multichain dApps that combine the best of Solidity and Move.
Pontem L2 leverages Move – a smart contract language that overcomes the security limitations of Solidity and Rust. Thanks to the implementation of MoveVM, Lumio offers unprecedented resistance to hacks, formal verification, and fast performance.
Lumio leverages the best of Optimism and its Rust implementation – the most technologically advanced among optimistic rollups. In the next phase, we plan to upgrade Pontem L2 to our own stack while also integrating it with Superchain.
