What is Tezos EVM?

Tezos EVM is the EVM-compatible execution environment running as an L2 rollup on Tezos. It is an optimistic rollup that posts proofs back to Tezos L1 for settlement and uses Tezos’ Smart Rollup framework for data availability. Standard Ethereum tooling (Solidity, Foundry, Hardhat, MetaMask, etc.) works without modification, while transaction costs and finality benefit from Tezos’ underlying consensus.

Key Features

  • EVM compatibility: Full bytecode compatibility — Solidity contracts deploy with no source changes; Ethereum wallets and RPC clients work out of the box.
  • Tezos-backed settlement: An optimistic rollup anchored to Tezos L1. Sequencing and DA leverage Tezos’ Smart Rollup primitives, with fraud-proof–style dispute resolution on L1.
  • Sub-second blocks: The chain produces a new block every ~2 seconds on average (verified against tezos_evm.blocks time deltas), enabling fast UX for trading and other latency-sensitive use cases.
  • Native gas token: Gas is paid in XTZ (Tezos’ native token) bridged into the EVM context, not ETH — be careful when comparing fee data with other EVM chains.
