Somnia leads on both live benchmarks. Somnia wins on Cheapest blockchain transaction fee, live across L1 and L2 chains ($0.0000184 vs $0.000237), Cheapest blockchain to deploy a token, live USD cost per L1 chain ($0.00965 vs $0.6722). Data as of 2026-11-15 UTC.
The Internet Computer: subnets of nodes run canister smart contracts and sign state with chain-key cryptography; ICP pays ledger fees and is converted into cycles for compute.
EVM-compatible proof-of-stake L1 built for high throughput, where each validator produces its own data chain and a consensus chain orders them.

Internet Computer and Somnia are compared on 2 shared OpenChainBench benchmarks. Somnia leads on Cheapest blockchain transaction fee, live across L1 and L2 chains. See the live table on this page for every metric.
On the Cheapest blockchain transaction fee, live across L1 and L2 chains benchmark, Somnia leads at $0.0000184 versus Internet Computer at $0.000237. Live measurement is updated continuously by the OpenChainBench harness.
Every benchmark on this page uses the same open methodology, published at https://openchainbench.com/methodology. Data is CC-BY-4.0. Measurement harnesses are MIT-licensed.
Auto-generated pairs require: both providers in the same benchmark for seven consecutive days, at least 1000 samples per provider, observable third-party search demand, and a public /products/[slug] page on OCB. Editorially curated pairs (like this one) may publish early when search demand is high and data is accruing; panels with fewer than 100 samples are shown as provisional. The full pair ledger is versioned in the public repo.
