Metis is an Ethereum Layer-2 network that offers scalable infrastructure for both dApps and decentralized businesses. It features two key pillars: the Optimistic Rollup-based Andromeda network for ultra-low gas and fast EVM transactions, and a modular framework for launching Decentralized Autonomous Companies (DACs) with prebuilt governance, finance, and HR tooling. Its next-gen Hyperion upgrade brings parallel execution, AI-ready MetisVM, and a decentralized sequencer network to boost performance and decentralization. The native token, METIS, is used for gas, governance, and ecosystem staking. With support for fast cross-chain transfers and on-chain proposal voting, Metis aims to merge Web2 organizational logic with Web3 transparency.
