L1 public chain Supra announces the launch of the MultiVM testnet, with a $250,000 EVM deployment grant program now open for applications

Supra, the first vertically integrated high-performance L1 blockchain, has announced that applications for its MultiVM testnet are now officially open. This news was released by Supra co-founder and Chief Business Officer Jon Jones during his speech at the Buenos Aires Devconnect conference in Argentina.

This release marks a key milestone for MultiVM. With MultiVM, developers can not only build applications on Supra’s native MoveVM, but also use Solidity to directly develop, test, and deploy high-performance dApps across ecosystems in the brand-new SupraEVM environment, all without sacrificing security, composability, or liquidity.

Meanwhile, Supra also announced that support for SolanaVM is under development and is expected to go live early next year, positioning Supra to become the industry’s first L1 to support multiple virtual machine execution environments simultaneously.

Breaking Down Multi-Chain Barriers, Unifying Execution Environments

Supra co-founder and CBO Jon Jones stated: “We built MultiVM to ensure developers no longer have to choose between ecosystem, performance, or accessibility. Whether using Solidity or Move, teams can build applications within Supra’s parallel execution environment and directly access native oracles, automation, and cross-chain communication system capabilities.”

Supra’s MultiVM architecture allows dApp developers to write smart contracts in Solidity or Move, with future support for SolanaVM, while accessing Supra’s built-in 600+ oracle price feeds, cross-chain communication, and automation capabilities. This breaks the long-standing limitation of projects being forced to remain within Ethereum-compatible environments, unable to interoperate with other rapidly growing ecosystems.

$250,000 EVM Grant Program Officially Launched, Applications Now Open

To attract outstanding EVM developers to join the Supra ecosystem, Supra has officially opened applications for the MultiVM testnet and related grant programs. This initiative targets teams eager to be among the first to develop on the MultiVM testnet, inviting them to submit their most promising technical solutions and application ideas.

Selected projects will receive full support from Supra’s development stack, including:

• Full MoveVM and EVM compatibility: Solidity contracts can be deployed directly without any code modifications;

• Vertically integrated system services: including native Oracles, dVRF, automation, cross-chain services, and more;

• Unified RPC infrastructure: supports RPC access for both Move and EVM environments;

• Broad toolchain compatibility: natively compatible with Hardhat, Foundry, and Supra’s own CLI/IDE;

• Upcoming VM-to-VM communication and cross-environment composable automation: enabling native communication and automation process integration between different virtual machines.

EVM Grants: $250,000 Incentive Program Officially Launched

Supra has allocated a total of $250,000 for this EVM-specific grant program, aiming to support the most innovative EVM-native projects to be implemented on Supra’s infrastructure.

• The program will fund up to 10 teams

• Each team can receive up to $25,000

• Rewards will be distributed based on milestones to ensure continuous progress in technology and implementation

Selected projects will also receive in-depth support from Supra’s developer relations team, working together to set technical milestones, deploy contracts, and prepare for mainnet integration in 2026.

SolanaVM in Development, Moving Towards True Cross-VM Composability

As part of the MultiVM initiative, Supra is actively advancing the integration of SolanaVM, aiming to achieve true cross-VM composable operations and automation within a unified execution environment, enabling applications to be deployed once and run across ecosystems.

Supra is committed to building a universal Web3 execution layer: scalable, composable, cross-language, and cross-ecosystem.

About Supra

Supra is the first vertically integrated L1 blockchain designed specifically for AutoFi and on-chain AI Agents, providing high-performance smart contract execution, native oracles, system-level automation, and cross-chain communication.

Supra’s full-stack architecture introduces a new AutoFi primitive, capable of generating continuous and sustainable protocol revenue, reducing reliance on inflationary block rewards over time, while providing automated, trustworthy, and secure execution environments for on-chain AI Agents.
