🚀 Solayer & Coin LAYER: Breakthrough or Just a Passing Fad?
Solayer is a Layer-2 project focusing on on-chain financial infrastructure for organizations. The project emphasizes the InfiniSVM virtual machine (>1 million TPS), the Emerald Card for crypto spending with instant rewards, and a Solana–Ethereum bridge to enhance liquidity. With a DeFi ecosystem, AI, and micro-payment operations similar to Visa but decentralized, Solayer – backed by Binance Labs – is betting on a future of blockchain-based global finance.
👨💻 Team & Roadmap
Jason Li (MPCVault) and Rachel Chu (Vibe NFT) lead the project, backed by prominent figures like Anatoly Yakovenko (Solana). Solayer is developing InfiniSVM, OAuth, a restaking framework, and expanding its cross-chain bridge. With $150 million TVL and 70,000 active wallets, the deployment speed is quite impressive.
💳 Emerald Card – Spend & Earn Rewards
The Emerald Card allows for global payments in crypto while also receiving on-chain rewards through Emerald Rewards – a feature I find very practical.
🧠 Personal Perspective
Solayer has potential, but high TPS alone is not enough. Retaining users after the airdrop, practical applications, and community engagement are the decisive factors. If R&D stays on track and the legal environment is favorable, Solayer could break through. Otherwise, it may just be another fad. However, with Binance backing it, I still hold some hope 😄
🎯 In your opinion, what makes a Layer-2 successful?
