Why Compression is the Secret Weapon of Somnia’s Onchain Future
In Web3, performance is power. But performance comes with cost — size, speed, scalability. So how does @Somnia_Network scale an entire virtual society? One word: Compression. Let’s explore what’s under the hood. 🔍👇
🗜️ Why Compression Matters
Everything in Somnia is onchain:
Player actions
Items
Identity
Game events
That’s a massive amount of data. Without compression, the network would slow to a crawl.
⚙️ Somnia’s Advanced Compression Techniques They built custom algorithms to compress game data into tiny footprints, using:
Delta encoding
Dictionary encoding
Binary formats over JSON
Result: 🧠 Smart, lean, fast data.
📉 10x Smaller = 10x Faster
Somnia achieved compression rates of 10x (or more). This means lower gas fees, faster syncing, and better performance. It’s not just storage—it’s throughput.
🎮 Why It Matters for Players & Devs For gamers:
Seamless gameplay
Real-time experiences
No lag
For developers:
Cost-efficient
Easy to build
Plug into a scalable ecosystem
🌐 What This Enables
Advanced compression isn’t a side feature. It’s what makes Somnia’s metaverse OS possible — where millions of avatars interact without bottlenecks.
From quests to economies, all can run fully onchain.
💡 TL;DR
@Somnia_Network is setting a new standard in onchain infrastructure.
Thanks to compression, they’re not just imagining a metaverse future — They’re making it viable.
