#SolanaSurge Solana is a high-performance blockchain platform designed for decentralized applications (dApps) and crypto projects. Launched in 2020 by Anatoly Yakovenko, Solana stands out for its speed and low transaction costs. It uses a unique consensus mechanism called Proof of History (PoH), combined with Proof of Stake (PoS), which enables the network to process thousands of transactions per second. This makes Solana one of the fastest blockchains in the crypto space. It supports smart contracts and is widely used for NFTs, DeFi (Decentralized Finance), and gaming applications. Solana’s native cryptocurrency is SOL, used for transactions, staking, and governance. Despite facing network outages in the past, Solana remains a strong competitor to Ethereum and continues to attract developers and investors.
