What Is Solana (SOL)?

Solana is a blockchain launched in 2017 with its mainnet debut in 2020, designed to compete with Ethereum. It offers impressive scalability, rapid transaction speeds, and low costs, all built on open-source technology.

In 2021, Solana saw explosive growth across decentralized applications (dApps), user adoption, and total value locked (TVL). The Phantom wallet, Solana's most popular wallet, grew its user base sixfold, from 200,000 in August to 1.2 million by October 2021. Additionally, participation in Solana's hackathon skyrocketed from 1,000 registrations in October 2020 to 13,000 by May 2021, marking a thirteen-fold increase. Meanwhile, Solana’s TVL skyrocketed from US$135.61 million in April 2021 to US$10.14 billion by October 2021. As a result, within just a year, Solana secured its position as the sixth-largest global blockchain by TVL.

This remarkable progress can be attributed to the innovative Proof of History (PoH) mechanism, developed by its founder, Anatoly Yakovenko, which enables efficient throughput without relying on additional scaling solutions.

Solana’s Key Strengths

Solana’s standout features lie in its consensus mechanism, combining Proof of History (PoH) and Proof of Stake (PoS). PoH uses cryptographic timestamps to autonomously sequence events, enabling faster transaction processing without requiring network-wide confirmations. Meanwhile, PoS efficiently selects validators based on the amount of staked SOL, enhancing security and reducing energy consumption when compared to traditional Proof of Work (PoW) systems. In addition to its innovative consensus, Solana has witnessed impressive growth in its ecosystem, with over 500 decentralized applications (DApps) spanning areas such as DeFi, Web3 gaming, and NFTs. User adoption has surged significantly, escalating from 200,000 to 1.2 million wallet users within just two months in 2021. Moreover, the Total Value Locked (TVL) in the network skyrocketed from $135 million to over $10 billion in a single year.

How Solana (SOL) Works

Smart Contract Platform

Solana's robust infrastructure is designed to support a variety of decentralized applications (DApps), such as NFT marketplaces, DeFi protocols, and gaming platforms. Its innovative PoH + PoS consensus model significantly reduces the bottlenecks typically encountered on older blockchain networks, enabling near-instant transaction finality.

Validator Rotation

In Solana's network, validators rotate in producing blocks, with PoH establishing a clear and transparent order of events. The PoS mechanism fairly and efficiently selects validators, resulting in a system that offers high throughput and low latency.

Utility of the SOL Token

The SOL token serves multiple purposes within the Solana ecosystem. It enables governance, allowing holders to partake in on-chain governance proposals. Users can also stake SOL to help secure the network and earn incentives. Additionally, SOL is utilized for paying transaction fees and smart contract fees. It plays a crucial role in powering applications and smart contracts operating on the Solana platform.
