With RISE live on Dune, onchain activity across one of the fastest EVM environments can now be explored end-to-end, from transactions and contracts to gas usage, throughput, and ecosystem behavior. This gives builders, researchers, and market participants direct visibility into how real-time, fully onchain orderbook markets operate on Ethereum-secured infrastructure.
What is RISE?
RISE is an Ethereum Layer 2 designed to support CEX-grade financial markets directly onchain. It is built for ultra-low latency, high throughput, and full EVM composability, enabling spot, perpetuals, and other orderbook-based markets to coexist with DeFi primitives in shared state.
Under the hood, RISE re-architects the execution and block production pipeline with:
- 1ms latency via a Continuous Block Pipeline and interrupt-driven execution
- 50K+ TPS and 5 Ggas/s throughput for market-critical workloads
- Full EVM compatibility, preserving composability with existing Ethereum tooling
- Ethereum security, with a hybrid optimistic + ZK fraud-proof design
This performance profile makes fully onchain, real-time financial markets viable within the EVM for the first time.
Every trade on RISE is public. Every match, every gas unit, every block. Dune makes that data queryable by anyone. That's what fully onchain actually means.
“Builders evaluating a chain and traders evaluating a venue shouldn't have to take the team's word for anything. Onchain transparency only works when the data is queryable, and Dune has set the gold standard for that. It's the standard we want RISE and RISEx held to.” — Sam Battenally, Co-founder, RISE Chain and RISEx.
RISE data on Dune
With RISE available on Dune, users can now analyze:
- Core network activity — transactions, throughput, latency, and block behavior
- Contracts & ecosystem usage — deployments, active contracts, and app activity
- Performance metrics — TPS, execution speed, and fee dynamics
- Market-driven activity — orderbook-style usage patterns as they emerge
Dune provides a transparent, queryable view into how RISE is scaling toward its goal: becoming the home for fully onchain financial markets".
