Kinetiq has launched the Elysium testnet, and third-party RPC access is now live on Chainstack in addition to Hypedexer. Chainstack describes Elysium as an Arbitrum Orbit L2 on HyperEVM designed for 100–200 ms blocks; its endpoint joins Hypedexer's genesis-synced HTTPS/WSS RPC alongside the block explorer, documentation, and official RPC endpoints already open to builders.
- Elysium is a high-performance DeFi chain for onchain spot trading on Hyperliquid, settling to HyperEVM and co-located with HyperCore, with HYPE as its native gas token
- It runs on Conduit's rollup stack, powered by Conduit's sequencer and SOC 2 Type II infrastructure
- 25% of sequencer revenue is committed to builders whose apps drive real usage of the chain's blockspace
- Early community benchmarks running the same contract and load on Elysium and HyperEVM side by side: ~0.27s vs ~1.7s to inclusion and ~5.8x cheaper per transaction on Elysium
