Somnia Mainnet Releases

somnia-c2ebe4eae665079-release - Jig Hard Fork

Activated: 6th August 2026, 11:00 UTC

The Jig hard fork is a network upgrade that introduces:

  • Sustained gas discounts: rewards sustained usage with a discounted base gas price. See Sustained Use Gas Discounts.

  • Blake2f fix: corrects an edge case in the Blake2f precompile

  • GASPRICE semantics: the GASPRICE opcode (tx.gasprice) now returns the price actually charged for the transaction - the sender's discounted base price plus their priority fee - rather than the block's base gas price. This applies to all transactions, calls and simulations, and makes GASPRICE sender-dependent. Contracts that use tx.gasprice for gas reimbursement or fee floors should review that logic.

  • Block history: gas limits reported for historical blocks are now capped consistently

This release also improves RPC compatibility, consensus performance and stability:

  • #1762 Implement eth_sendRawTransactionSync

  • #1751 Add accessList field in RPC responses

  • #1734 Add removed field to eth_getLogs log objects

  • #1765 Harden RPC storage key-type validation

  • #1742 Aggregate BLS public keys for message verification

  • #1743 #1744 Parallelise and cache the PBFT leader's BLS verifications

  • #1737 Parallelise backend validation by transaction

  • #1749 Replace validator shards with a single MPMC queue

  • #1724 Reduce storage database stalls when pruning

  • #1730 Retire obsolete storage data types

Reclaiming disk space:

After upgrading, node operators can reclaim significant disk space (hundreds of gigabytes on long-running nodes) by deleting the storage data types retired in #1730. With the node stopped, run:


somnia-369f69e34c9778c-release - RPC compatibility

  • Session transactions: allows users to pre-authorize a sequence of transactions, reducing friction for interactive applications

  • EIP-7702: a standard that lets regular accounts temporarily act like smart contracts, enabling more flexible transaction flows

  • Agentic L1: expands Somnia to become a hyper-performant L1 for agents and applications
