Analysis
Eclipse Eclipse is the first Ethereum Layer 2 built on the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM), combining Ethereum's security and liquidity with Solana's parallel execution engine. Live on mainnet since late 2024, E... Relay Relay is a cross-chain bridge protocol that enables near-instant transfers between Solana and 75+ other blockchains. Using an intent-based architecture powered by competitive relayer networks, Relay a...
Eclipse is rated higher by the MadeOnSol community with 4.0/5 stars across 1 review, compared to 0.0/5 for Relay (0 reviews). That said, ratings only tell part of the story — what matters most is which tool fits your specific workflow.
Eclipse uses a free model, while Relay is free. Both tools are free, so cost isn't a deciding factor — focus on features and reliability instead.
Eclipse offers 5 features including Solana VM execution on Ethereum L2, 1,000+ TPS with parallel transaction processing, Native Ethereum bridge for asset transfers, and 2 more. Relay counters with 5 features including 1-10 second cross-chain transfers, 75+ supported blockchains including Solana, Intent-based architecture with competitive relayers, and 2 more. The right choice depends on which specific features matter for your use case — check the individual review pages for full breakdowns.
We monitor both tools around the clock for uptime, SSL validity, and response times. Eclipse currently has a healthy health status with 100.0% uptime over the last 30 days. Relay is rated healthy with 100.0% uptime. For any tool you trust with your funds, trades, or yield, uptime and speed are non-negotiable.
Eclipse's key strengths include best of both ethereum and solana ecosystems, high throughput from svm execution, ethereum-grade security via settlement. Relay stands out for near-instant transfers (1-10 seconds), very low bridging fees, massive chain support (75+). On the flip side, Eclipse's weaknesses include additional bridge risk between ethereum and eclipse, while Relay's main drawback is relies on relayer network availability.
