RISE — the trading chain
RISE is an Ethereum L2 built for real-time trading. Instead of waiting on consensus, it pre-executes transactions from the mempool with a parallel EVM (pEVM) and streams the results as shreds — sub-blocks delivered every ~2ms that give you an instant preconfirmation. Those shreds roll up into a full block roughly once a second (the part that carries a state root and settles to Ethereum). So: shreds = instant UX, blocks = finality.
