Gravity is an EVM compatible network built by Galxe to serve its ecosystem, with the live Alpha Mainnet running on the Arbitrum Nitro stack and settling to Ethereum. Its native token is G.
Gravity is built by Galxe to support its ecosystem, and its live Alpha Mainnet runs as an EVM compatible network on the Arbitrum Nitro stack while the team works toward its own Layer 1. Here is how it works and what it is used for, not the price.

The live Gravity Alpha Mainnet is built on the Arbitrum Nitro stack and posts its data to Ethereum, so it inherits Ethereum settlement while running an EVM compatible execution environment. Gas is paid in the G token, which arrived through a migration from the earlier Galxe token. Galxe has described plans to move Gravity to its own Layer 1 secured by Proof of Stake, which is in development rather than live.
Consensus: EVM chain settling to Ethereum
The live Gravity Alpha Mainnet is built on the Arbitrum Nitro stack and posts its data to Ethereum, so it inherits Ethereum settlement while running an EVM compatible execution environment. Gas is paid in the G token, which arrived through a migration from the earlier Galxe token. Galxe has described plans to move Gravity to its own Layer 1 secured by Proof of Stake, which is in development rather than live.
EVM compatible
Gravity runs an Ethereum Virtual Machine environment, so developers can deploy Solidity contracts and reuse Ethereum tooling and wallets.
Alpha Mainnet on Arbitrum Nitro
The live network is the Gravity Alpha Mainnet, built on the Arbitrum Nitro stack and posting data to Ethereum for settlement.
G as gas
The G token pays gas on Gravity. It arrived through a migration from the earlier Galxe token approved by the Galxe DAO.
Path to Layer 1
Galxe has described plans to move Gravity to its own Layer 1 secured by Proof of Stake, which is in development rather than live today.
Ecosystem & usage
What Gravity is used for.
Gravity is used by applications across the Galxe ecosystem and EVM projects that deploy on the chain.
Gravity is an EVM compatible network built by Galxe to support its ecosystem. Its live Alpha Mainnet runs on the Arbitrum Nitro stack and settles to Ethereum, and its native token is G.
Is Gravity a Layer 1 or a Layer 2?
The live Gravity Alpha Mainnet runs on the Arbitrum Nitro stack and posts data to Ethereum for settlement. Galxe has described plans to move Gravity to its own Layer 1, which is in development rather than live today.
What is the G token used for?
G is the native token of Gravity and pays gas on the network. It arrived through a migration from the earlier Galxe token approved by the Galxe DAO.
Is Gravity compatible with Ethereum?
Yes. Gravity runs an Ethereum Virtual Machine environment, so Solidity contracts and standard Ethereum tooling and wallets work on it.
Can I hold G in the Zypto App?
Not yet. G isn't in Zypto App at the moment. You can hold it in any self-custodial wallet, and you can ask us to add Gravity using the "Request Gravity" button above.
