Don't forget Jolt! It's clojure built on top of Chez Scheme, which is super cool.

I'm also working on Jolt which uses Chez Scheme as the compiler. https://jolt-lang.github.io
I've already got enough of JVM compatibility to run Ring apps, and have some fun libraries like a Reagent style library on top of GTK https://yogthos.net/posts/2026-07-02-jolt.html

What's that supposed to mean? Many (probably most if we only consider the non-toy ones) lisp implementations are "native" (compiling to native machine code, not interpreted).
