Module 1 - Rome EVM

Architectural overview showing how OP Geth, Rhea, and Hercules interact within Rome.

Rome EVM is composed of OP Geth client, Rhea, Rollup smart contract on Solana, and Hercules.

  • OP Geth client enables users and applications to use an Ethereum RPC

  • Rhea processes OP Geth transactions and provides fast confirmation to users

  • Hercules takes ordered blocks from Solana and executes the payload on OP Geth to advance state

Rome EVM allows users to start building and deploying applications in minutes.
