About Solana
Solana is a high-performance blockchain platform launched in 2020, designed to deliver fast, low-cost, and scalable decentralized applications. It uses a unique combination of Proof of Stake and an innovative mechanism called Proof of History, which helps achieve extremely high transaction speeds while keeping fees minimal. Solana’s native token, SOL, powers transactions, staking, and governance across the network. Known for supporting thousands of transactions per second, Solana has become popular in areas like decentralized finance (DeFi), NFTs, and Web3 applications, positioning itself as a major competitor to other smart contract platforms through its focus on speed and efficiency.
