Solana is a blockchain platform that supports decentralised and scalable applications. It is an open-source project that began in 2017. Solana implements a combination of proof-of-history and authorised proof-of-stake protocols. Solana’s unique blend of proof of history and delegated proof of stake enables significantly faster transaction rates. The blocks of the Solana chain are defined using timestamps to provide historical verification. This novel technique enables blockchain validators to vote on the timestamps of specific blocks in the chain. This helps to keep the chain adequately decentralised while allowing for more secure and speedier processing. Unveiling the Distribution Strategy Seed Sale…

The purchases totaled $6.25 million, $1.78 million, and $893,000 for three transactions, according to blockchain information connected to a Solana wallet address.

Recently, Framework Ventures principal Brandon Potts and Superteam founding member Kash Dhanda took part in a Solana “roast” on the Lightspeed podcast. Historically, the Solana community has been split into two factions, according to Dhanda: the NFT crowd and the “hardcore builder” group. He continued by saying that he views the ongoing “intra-community battle” between these two groups to be unnecessary and irksome. Dhanda also took aim at the “culture of entitlement” that has grown in the Solana community, where a lot of people believe they should get a medal for enduring the bear cycle. He also noted and criticised…
