The Metis Post-Quantum Hybrid Rollup is now live on Devnet. This significant milestone in Metis's infrastructure evolution brings its Hybrid Rollup vision one step closer to reality.

The next phase of development begins.

The Metis Hybrid Rollup is live on Devnet. ZK validity proofs verify execution on-chain, aiming to cut withdrawal delays.

Faster settlement is only part of it. The work also builds a post-quantum path for scaling Ethereum. https://t.co/oTBu1CGs1f

Metis announced the Hybrid Rollup in 2023, so why is it only happening now?

Two main reasons.

Metis runs its own version of the OP Stack, so proving it meant building a zkVM for the MIPS program Metis already uses for fraud proofs - not grabbing an off-the-shelf prover and rewriting Metis in another language. Ziren was the harder path for our developers, and making it production-grade - through external security reviews, and now fast enough to prove Ethereum blocks in real time - took time.

Also, while it was being built, post-quantum went from a background concern to having a concrete deadline. NIST retires today’s curves by 2035, so the Ziren proof path is being made hash-based from end to end - no wrapper, switched in module by module.

This has all taken time, energy, and resources. But the result will be a post-quantum secure hybrid rollup on Ethereum. Worth the work and the wait.

In 2023, we announced a Hybrid Rollup that depended on a prover that didn't exist yet.
While it was being built, post-quantum went from a concern to a deadline.
The Hybrid Rollup is live on Devnet, with a hash-based proof path in progress.

How does Metis Rise rank builders?
Your ranking is based on two factors:
• 80% — Valid Monthly Active Users
• 20% — METIS gas consumption
Settled volume helps qualify users against the activity threshold, but does not directly affect your ranking.
The focus is on real user adoption, not inflated numbers.

Agents are becoming a sales channel, and most small merchants aren’t set up for it.

From the @KBWofficial stage, CEO @KevinLiu explains why that matters for local businesses: agent commerce is another way to find your next big customers, and GOAT Flow gets your products ready, discovered, and purchasable by agents.

Metis Rise: 6 things builders can't afford to miss

1/ $1,500 every month. Top 3 split it: $800 / $450 / $250

2/ Only 1 builder qualifies? They take the full $800

3/ Open to ALL builders, not just bootcamp participants

4/ Any framework or host: ClawUp, GOAT AgentKit, self-hosted

Where does an L2 start on quantum readiness?

The EF's PQ team lists four places: sequencer and admin keys, bridges, user accounts via account abstraction, and for zk-rollups, the proof system.

The pattern: a few keys controlling a lot of value.

Ziren is coming to Metis.👏👏👏

Privacy is an important part of making blockchain more practical for everyday use.

Through our partnership with @SilentSwap, we're taking the first step by bringing private swaps to the Metis ecosystem.

Together, we're exploring new ways to make private digital commerce more accessible. Swaps are just the beginning. 🔐

Private commerce could be an important part of blockchain's next adoption phase.

Together with @SilentSwap, we're exploring how privacy solutions can become more accessible and relevant to everyday onchain transactions.

Swaps are just the beginning.

[Metis🌿 @MetisL2]

We're partnering with @SilentSwap to bring private swaps to the Metis ecosystem as an initial step.

SilentSwap is a non-custodial cross-chain execution layer for private swaps. The two teams are already working together on expanding privacy.

Metis Rise Rule #1: Real users, real activity.

A valid user needs ≥3 txs on Andromeda OR ≥$2 in settled volume, plus a legitimacy signal.
❌ No self-transfers, test txs, or deployer-funded wallets.
Reach 15 valid active users/month to qualify for ranking.

[Metis🌿 @MetisL2]

Thank you, @CapCapital68, for joining Metis Rise as an official media partner.

[Metis🌿 @MetisL2]

Every agent is wearing a costume.

Until you can check its identity, you don't know who's underneath.

Happy Halloween. 🎃

Final Call📢

What’s next for GOAT Network?

COO @sophianeverfold’s answer: closer work with key partners in specific use cases, and a marketplace of products and services ready for AI agents to buy.

[Metis🌿 @MetisL2]

Thank you, @BD_GemX, for helping put Metis Rise in front of more builders. The program counts an agent by what it does: real users transacting with it on Andromeda Mainnet, not just a launch.
Applications are rolling.

[Metis🌿 @MetisL2]

The bar is simple: 15+ valid users a month on Andromeda Mainnet.

Metis Rise pays $1,500 every month. Not a one-off prize. Top 3 split it: $800 / $450 / $250. One qualifier takes all $800.
Any framework or host. 3-month pilot, rolling applications.

[Metis🌿 @MetisL2]

Metis Rise accepts applications on a rolling basis. You can apply at any time.

But your agent's tracking doesn't start the day you apply. Here's how the monthly cycle works 👇

[Metis🌿 @MetisL2]

As agents take on more work, how do they pay for services across company boundaries?

Scoped spending permissions, usage-based payments, and verifiable settlement are worth building into the agent stack early.
