## Products

- [Somnia Blockchain](https://thegrid.id/profiles/somnia): Somnia Blockchain is an EVM-compatible layer 1 network using MultiStream consensus, IceDB database technology, and accelerated sequential execution designed for high throughput and low latency transaction processing. (L1, Open Beta, Main Product)

## Assets

- [STT](https://thegrid.id/profiles/somnia): STT is the native token of the Somnia Network, a public testing network built for pre-mainnet development. It is used for paying transaction fees and network operations via native protocol functions. Unlike ERC20 tokens, STT is built into the protocol itself and does not have a contract address, functioning similarly to how ETH operates on Ethereum. (Native)
